The World Championship arrives for the first time in its history in Australia This coming weekend the World Championship lands for the first time in its history in Australia. 
More than thirty pilots from all over the world will travel there during these days.
The site chosen will be Mt Tarregowen, in Maldon, located in the heart of the historic Victoria mines,approximately 135km northwest of Melbourne.
Australia is a country that exudes passion for two wheels. In speed, riders such as Stoner or Doohan have won world titles; Supercross World Champion Chad Reed is Australian. We all know the great circuit of Philip Island as well.
The organisers of the World Championships hope that these two days of competition in Australia will be a great step forward for the diffusion of Trial as a sport in the country. One of the main attractions will be the presence of at least ten local drivers, who will try to do the best possible role within their audience and in front of the best drivers in the world.
According to Bou: “We don’t have references from Australia, but I’m excited to travel to a new place. It is a great opportunity to collaborate in the development of Trial in this country and encourage Australian riders to end up being encouraged to run more races in the World Championship. I’m really looking forward to enjoying these two weeks to the fullest.”
According to Cabestany: “I’m happy to be going to Australia. It’s important for sponsors and also for our sport. We all know that economically it is a difficult time, but we have to fight together so that we continue to grow in sport. I expect a good reaction from the Australian public, who as you see in MotoGP, have a lot of passion for the world of motorcycles.”
From Trialworld we will keep you informed of everything that happens this coming Saturday and Sunday in Australia.
