The idea behind the festival is that we wanted everyone to be able to join in a race, regardless of the type of bike you own or your level of experience. We want to offer you the chance to compete in a safe non-threatening environment. From scooters to scramblers, sidecars to enduros, they'll be something for you to have a go at and enjoy. And you'll have a great story to tell.
AMA
All riders must register with AMA before the festival to ensure you are covered by our event insurance. This cost is in addition to your race registration ticket. $20 for a single event, or if you wish to sign up for a year so you can compete in other AMA sanctioned events it would be $50. See AMA website for more info.
In order to enter a race, you must be 18 years old or over, completed your AMA registration for insurance, completed a race waiver and self-scrutineering form for all bikes entered. Once you have purchased your race registration ticket you will be emailed your ticket / race number. Within this email there will be a link to enter your bike and the race(s) and class(es) you wish to enter in. We'd love to think we can accept all entries, but they will have to be approved by the Spoke race team.
