The Classic Scramble Club is a sports club based in Moyne Shire, Victoria, dedicated to promoting vintage motorcycle racing. The club focuses on motorcycles that were manufactured during the golden era of classic scrambling, specifically those made in 1977 or earlier.
The club holds scramble meetings on natural terrain tracks throughout the southwest region of Victoria, with their permanent track located in Lismore. These meetings provide enthusiasts with the opportunity to witness and participate in classic motocross racing and experience the excitement and camaraderie that comes with it.
To ride with the Classic Scramble Club, participants must have a pre-60, pre-70, pre-75, or pre-78 motocross bike along with appropriate riding gear. The vintage motorcycle must be able to pass scrutineering, comply with Motorcycling Australia safety regulations, and be true to the original manufacturer's specifications for its respective year.
Membership with Ambulance Victoria is mandatory for all club events to ensure the safety and well-being of riders.
For beginners looking to get involved, the Classic Scramble Club offers Ride Day practise events. These events, typically held in March and April, may not require a Motorcycling Australia licence or club membership, making it an easy way to start participating. However, it's important to note that unlicensed riders are not covered by the accident insurance provided by Motorcycling Australia, and the entry fee may be slightly higher for non-members of the Classic Scramble Club.
For those looking to compete in official race meetings, members must hold both Classic Scramble Club membership, which offers one-day licences, and a Motorcycling Australia national race licence, also available as a one-day licence.
