17.01.2022 Sponsor In The Spotlight Lightweight would like to welcome RCA - Civil Earthmoving & Concrete Contractors as one of our new 2020 Club Sponsors. RCA is a business which is based in Byford and which has established itself as a leader in the civil construction industry, not only in the Perth Metropolitan area, but also in the North West and other remote areas throughout Australia. The business specialises in earthworks, road construction, drainage, asphalt, kerbing, subdivision...s, mining camps, concrete works and machinery hire in the mining and civil sectors. With a strong focus on exceptional service, a high-quality standard of work, as well as innovation, this is a company that is going from strength to strength. They are also an equal opportunity employer and promote a safe working environment along with sound environmental practices- what is not to like? Lightweight is extremely excited to have the support of RCA and those of you with a keen eye would have spotted RCA around the grounds on a few occasions, as RCA has assisted the club with work on the drainage system on our Motocross track. As a club we would like to extend our gratitude to RCA for all their support this year- and we look forward to working with you into the future! #LWMCC #WeLoveOurSponsors #ThankYou #SupportThoseWhoSupportUs

12.01.2022 Attention Members As we are gearing up toward this Saturday night’s Ax points event #5, we are aware that a few members (with boundless energy) are intending on doing both Bunbury’s club run in the morning as well as the last round of the LWMCC Ax Club Championship Series in the evening. With State Rounds soon to take place in Bunbury, we would like to do what we can to support our members to get their sand practice in. As such, it has been agreed that we will allow late sig...n on for riders coming from the Bunbury club run, to enable you to race the LWMCC Championship Series as well as getting valuable track time in Bunbury. Please be aware that you will still need to be signed on and scrutineered by 5:30pm at the latest. We will facilitate a lap of practice, should your class have completed their practice before your arrival. You also will still need to supply a helper on the night. For any riders not taking part in the event at Bunbury, normal sign on/scrutineering times apply, with sign on closing at 4:30pm, rider’s brief at 4:45pm and practice starting at 5pm.

04.01.2022 Due to the heavy amount of rain last night, we regret to advise that tonight's Ax Practice has been cancelled. The LWMCC board did not make this decision lightly, however we are keen to offer riders the best ride experience possible and with the possibility of more rain, we did not feel we were going to be able to offer this. We will now turn our attention to the Ax Open and focus on delivering a fantastic event on November 21st. ... We apologise for any inconvenience this cancellation may cause and hope to see you on the 21st.
