SUPERCROSS is revving up for its return to Geelong, following last week\u2019s announcement that round 3 of the Australian Supercross Championship will be held at GMHBA Stadium on October 13.<\/p>\n
For the first time in Australia, the night of racing staged by Troy Bayliss Events (TBE) will feature an all-new triple crown competition format.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re pumped to be teaming up with Yamaha Motor Australia to deliver Round 3 of the Australian Supercross Championships to the people of Victoria at GMHBA Stadium and we think this is the perfect venue for fans to get up close and personal with the sport,” Bayliss, a three-time World Superbike Champion, said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re expecting a big crowd down in Geelong to see Australia\u2019s greatest Supercross talent and we\u2019re also offering fans new ways of interacting with their favourite teams and riders through our Pit Party activation, which will be free of charge to anyone on the day.<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t miss the opportunity to see Supercross in a major Stadium, we have plenty of further announcements surrounding the event in the coming months.\u201d<\/p>\n
October 13 will be a big night in Geelong – following the Supercross, fans can spill into the CBD which will be hosting a White Night Street Festival until 2am.<\/p>\n
Leading Australian Supercross star and CDR Yamaha Monster Energy factory rider Dean Ferris says he was pumped to have the event back in the team\u2019s hometown and was looking forward to putting on a show for Supercross fans.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis stadium is going to be a real spectacle for the fans and for us as riders, there\u2019s plenty of room for the track builders to shape the perfect Supercross track to hit in maximum attack mode.<\/p>\n
\u201cRiding inside one of the top stadiums in Australia is a massive boost for the championship and makes us push even harder to put on the best show for our fans.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kardinia Park Stadium Trust chief executive officer Michael Brown welcomed the announcement.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are thrilled to have Supercross back at GMHBA Stadium. Fans will enjoy an action-packed night of entertainment in front of the newly redeveloped Brownlow Stand,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
