The Auckland Motorcycle Club was founded in 1930
and since that time has been actively involved in the promotion
of all aspects of motorcycling, with a strong emphasis on organised
motorcycle sport, particularly road racing, together with the activities
associated with motorcycling safety and the promotion of a good
public image for motorcycling.
The Auckland Motorcycle Club fosters new riders and provides events
suitable for all abilities.
When you join a motorcycle club you gain inside information on motorcycle
events, opportunities to learn riding techniques and motorcycle
tuning / setting up. Not to mention making new friends and some
great social occasions.

A competition licence is required for all forms
of competition, such as Road Racing. An application form for the licence
can be obtained once you have joined the club. The cost of the licence
is NZ$40 for the year, this provides you with top-up medical coverage
should you be injured at an organised race meeting.

Every Thursday night our club rooms are open from
7:30pm at 6 Findlay Street, Ellerslie, Auckland 5.
Videos of International Events screened, featuring 500cc Grand Prix's
and World Superbike Championships, some not screened on NZ Television.
Often technical evenings are organised where valuable information
can be obtained, for example on new machinery, safety equipment
etc.
Auckland Motorcycle Club organises 4 or 5 events
a year at Pukekohe Grand Prix Circuit, the most prestigious of these
being the New Zealand Tourist Trophy event, usually held in December
each year. All events held cater for all levels of experience from
the novice to those who have competed internationally, and all classes
of road racing machinery from 125cc Racing to superbikes, lest we
forget the classics, post classics and BEARS classes
If the budget won't stretch to fit your dreams
or aspirations, try this for a fun form of road racing. A competitive
machine can be built or purchased ready to race for as little as
NZ$500.00 and naturally the maintenance costs are drastically less
than other forms.
Classes catered for here are:
- Formula 4 - 51cc to 100cc 2 stroke or 150cc
4 stroke solo bikes.
- Formula 5 - 0cc to 50cc 2 stroke or 100cc
4 stroke solo Bikes.
- F4 Sidecars 0 to 100cc 2 stroke or 150cc
4 stroke
.
These events are currently held at Mount Wellington Kart Track which
is both demanding, challenging and naturally a lot of fun. Again,
we cater for all levels of ability and experience.
