MA claims by using a streamlined Public Liability (PL) insurance program, it hopes to attract more recreational riders.
According to MA, the program has been trialed in several states over the past 18 months with great success, Ride Parks Australia’s – Ride Park Days (RPD) is a MA brand of non-competitive and fun ride days aimed at the general riding public. The new program has also been designed to appeal to current MA members who wish to enjoy their favourite clubs and venues that choose to be part of RPA.
RPDs have been created for social and recreational riding only and provide an opportunity for the greater community and non-MA members to access their local tracks which provide a safe, family-friendly environment to ride at an affordable cost.
The RPD entry fee is structured to ensure accessing local tracks is more affordable for riders and families. MA annual Licence holders will pay the same riding fees as non-MA members but benefit from the cover provided under the MA Personal Accident (PA) scheme with their annual license.
MA CEO, Peter Doyle, said he was excited to see this new initiative expanded nationally into the market and engage those riders and families who just want to have fun and enjoy recreational riding.
“Ride Parks Australia is all about giving the social rider access to quality local facilities at an affordable price,” explained Doyle. “RPA is not based around the sporting side of the business and the restrictive rules and regulations that come with competition. These ride days are for families, friends and kids to enjoy social riding at venues that can cater for all levels of riders.”
