Stofskop, once again Powered by Motul, has perfected the recipe for the ideal family Saturday. Having built up a reputation as the ultimate social motorcycle event, the organisers have adopted an approach of “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” for this year (although this may not apply to some of the motorcycles that have been entered). In other words, two-wheeler fans will know just what to expect, and just how much fun Stofskop will be when it returns to the familiar surroundings of Johannesburg’s Randfontein Raceway on Saturday, 7 September 2024.
This is a chance for owners and fans alike to dress up, be a little bit silly, and put the most unlikely of motorcycles through their paces. With over 75 entries already received and heading towards capacity fast, this year’s event is on track to be the biggest, loudest and most fun edition of Stofskop yet.
“This year’s Stofskop Powered by Motul will feature all the categories you know and love,” commented chief organiser, Chris Shelvey. “Plus, the Pit Bike Brawl and Sidecar Shenanigans will be returning for a second year, due to popular demand,” he added.
With spectator tickets priced at just R60 per person (free for under-12’s) – including entry into the Grand Prize Draw to be held after all the races – Stofskop represents outstanding value for a family day out. Gates will open early so fans can enjoy the vibe and build-up before the actual riding gets underway at 12 pm.
In amongst the chaos, confusion and laughter, spectators can enjoy the street food and drinks trucks as well as the Spring sunshine as it illuminates the dust kicked up by the Inappropriate Road Bikes, Chops & Bobbers, Scramblers & Trackers, Plastic Pigs, and the Vespas and friends in the Moped Mash category.
Stofskop Powered by Motul is a race like no other – it’s eccentric, silly, and lots of fun. Whether you’re lining up on the track or to buy a burger or tacos, you won’t have to wait long for the craziness to commence. As always, safety will be taken seriously, but apart from that, there are no rules.
“We’re delighted to continue our support for Stofskop – it’s one of the events we most look forward to each year,” commented Mercia Jansen, Motul General Manager for Southern and Eastern Africa. “Having partnered with the Stofskop team from the very beginning, we remain committed to supporting grassroots racing and growing the wider motorcycle family. This is an event for everyone – if you don’t love motorbikes before Stofskop, we guarantee you will by the end of the day,” she added.
If you’re ready to blow the cobwebs off the mechanical wonder in your garage – and then get it covered in a whole new layer of dust, and you’re 18 or older, email a picture of your motorcycle to [email protected] before 31 August 2024, in order to receive an entry form and all the information you need. On the day itself, you’ll be able to chat to the experts from Motul about products including Motul’s Boost and Clean Fuel Additive – the perfect way to clean dusty fuel systems and give any motorcycle a winning performance boost.
