PRESIDENT’S WELCOME
A warm southern welcome from the Southland Motorcycle Club, welcoming all
to the 14th running of the Burt Munro Challenge. The weather will be warmer
and the racing hotter than ever before! Competitors and spectators from around
the world gather to experience seven events in five days. There’s something for
everyone so come and enjoy. We hope all of our hard work will make it the most
memorable Challenge to date!
This year we commence with the Southland Honda Have a Go Day on Wednesday,
followed by an impressive line-up of machines taking on the iconic Bluff hill on
Thursday morning with the Star Insurance NZ Hill Climb Champs. Then in the
evening, it’s time for the Harley-Davidson Twilight Drag Racing at Teretonga Park.
On Friday, the Indian Motorcycle NZ Beach Racing Champs will thunder along
Oreti Beach from 5.30pm. On Saturday you can look forward to back-to-back
racing starting with the E Hayes & Sons Teretonga Sprint Races followed by the
fast and furious Sievwright Oreti Park Speedway. To round off a fantastic weekend,
join us in Invercargill for the Honda Invercargill Street Races.
I would like to thank our sponsors and community funding bodies. To the ILT
Foundation, Invercargill City Council, Jack Daniels, E Hayes & Sons, Star Insurance,
Harley-Davidson, Honda, Indian Motorcycle, Shiny Side Up and all of the local
businesses and organisations that continue to support us each year, a huge
thank you.
Your competitor pack has all the information you’ll need for a great week in the
South, as does the event website, our Facebook page and Instagram account. Our
team behind the scenes is also happy to answer any questions you have, simply
email burtmunro@greatsouth.nz with your query. Remember, it’s not a race to get
here so allow yourself plenty of time and ride safely.
Thanks again for coming South for one hell of a week!
Warm Regards
Andy Underhay
President, Southland Motorcycle Club Inc.
