The premier event on the City of Penrith Motor Cycle Club’s race calendar is the Annual Classic Dirt Track Charity Weekend.
As the title implies the primary purpose of this two-day event is to raise funds to support our selected Charity for 2025.
The format of the Classic Dirt Track Charity Weekend differs from our normal racing events primarily because it is open only to bikes that were manufactured in and prior to 2005. Some bikes are over 50 years old and still racing around the renowned Nepean Raceway at Castlereagh, which coincidentally is celebrating its 66th year in 2025.
| Over the two days, spectators will be entertained by non stop action. Saturday – Post Classic bike racing along with 25 Lapper.
Sunday – Classic bikes racing along with 25 Lapper and Show ‘N’ Shine – Classic Bike Displays. $10 per vehicle entry fee/donation goes to Mama Lana’s Community Foundation.

On Saturday 2nd August
There will be the “Man and Machine” versus the famous Nepean Track for the legendary 25 Lappers for all machines
Twenty five laps around Nepean Raceway is no mean feat for any rider on any machine! Put them on, up to a 50 year old bike, and this is where the wheat gets separated from the chaff!
| The “Classic Charity Weekend” is not limited to riders.
Family and Spectators are most welcome. |
On Sunday 3rd August
Racing will be Classic bikes up to Evolution (approx. 1984) and all machines Pre ’85 to Pre ’95. Sliders Pre 75, Sidecars Pre 75, 70 plus Super Seniors , and our classic 25 lapper with Le Man start.
PLUS static Bike Displays, a Show and Shine and much, much more!
Of course, there will also be a full day’s action-packed Classic Racing! The thrills and spills of Dirt Track racing are hard to beat and there are great vantage spots around the track to see the action “up close”.
If you want to get even closer to the action … you can volunteer to be a Marshall for the day which offers not only a front row seat but free refreshments and lunch plus other great benefits.

This year our chosen Charity is Mama Lana’s Community Foundation www.mamalanas.org.au which provides meal services to homeless and under privileged in the Penrith area.
Mama Lana’s Community Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation and in desperate need for financial support due to the economy. The organisation and their volunteers that provide meals have never seen so many of their community needing a helping hand and homeless. Unprecedent in Australia let alone in Penrith.
Of course, we want to raise as much money as possible, so if you, your club, your business or your workplace would like to sponsor an event, please email [email protected] or call the club 0490 936485 for Sponsorship Proposal.
In the past
Our life member Wally Cox started the fundraising ball rolling by securing a $5,000 grant through the State Member for Mulgoa, Tanya Davies. This is a fantastic way to start our fundraising and thank you to Tanya.
