NSW has the most Motorcycle Licences in Australia and the second highest number of Competition (Race) Licences in Australia, yet there are only 2 Circuits?
OPINION: As it stands, the NSW Labour Government has marginalised Motorcyclists. Motorcycles (and Scooters) are not even included in the Sydney Transport Planning except as RTA Revenue raising targets.
Despite a clearly demonstrated need, the present Labour Government is suspected of blocking the building of a replacement Circuit for Oran Park. This prompts the question: Is the Government's ultimate plan to remove Motorcycles from NSW Roads altogether? After perescution comes elimination.

NSW GOVERNMENT PERSECUTION PLAN IS NOW A REALITY.. |
The squeaky wheel gets attention.
If YOU do not MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD, Motorcyclists will be ignored.
Motorcycling as you know it, may be lost... and YOU may have no Tracks or Industry. It is up to you.
By doing nothing Motorcycle Riders, Motorcycle and Motor Industry, Motor Racing and Karts will end up with what ever plan the Government and Bureaucrats give us.
By doing nothing, we will end up with NOTHING. By doing nothing you get what the Government gives you. If you complain and make a noise, Government must make changes, when you are quiet, that says you accept.
The Motorcycle riding population alone justifies at least four suitable and permient Motorcycle Circuits in NSW, presently there is Eastern Creek and Wakefield Park, two Circuits are insufficient to ensure access for events, rider training and affordable access.
There needs to be at least two more Circuits in the Sydney Basin. If the Government is 'persuaded bullied and pushed' to plan and build a multi use Motor Race Circuit and Motorcycling Australia is 'encouraged' remain relevent and build a State Motorcycle Complex (as they have elsewhere) Motorcycling, rider training, ride days and the whole racing fraternaty will have a secure future in NSW.
NSW would also be in a position to bid to host a round of World Superbike or even MotoGP, either will bring the TV eyes of 200 - 300 Million People who could see Sydney as the place to visit. The stakes are high and the benefit of action is significant AND YOU MUST ACT. All Motorsports must work together to ensure we have the facilities we need, the loss of one discipline is a loss for us all.
