Mana Media —

On Saturday 27 January the 57th Annual New Zealand Motocross Grand Prix was held at the famous Woodville circuit.

Over 500 Senior, Junior and Mini riders come from all over NZ and overseas to compete in this Event. 

This year the event was accorded FIM Oceania status, meaning that points scored by Australian competitors and their Kiwi opposite numbers were counted towards the battle-within-a-battle for FIM Oceania Challenge honours.

New Zealand won the FIM Oceania Challenge, 886 points to 829  Locky placed in the top 20 for the Junior Division.  Twin brother Zac was unable to compete in this event due to suffering a broken collarbone in the 'King of the Mountain' Competition. 

Well done, Locky!
