Australia's motocross series 'Battle in the Bush' held a four-hour team relay race at Queensland's storied Warwick MX Club. After a hard-fought battle, team 'Rooted & Roosted' took the win, capping off a race full of grassroots energy.
World-class championships aren't the only racing that matters. A local club getting fired up over a 4-hour endurance event — that depth at the grassroots is exactly the source of a country's strength. Watching a scene like this makes it clear why top riders keep coming out of Australia. A relay format where you team up with friends and see it through is a great stage for developing a rider too.

It says grassroots event, but the lack of details like lap times or number of entrants feels a bit lacking.
What are the rules for a team relay race - does one bike get ridden in turns by multiple riders?
I think it's probably a format where a multi-person team takes turns riding through 4 straight hours - a real test of stamina.
The Warwick MX Club sounds like a prestigious one, but I wonder how long the track's actually been around.
A 4-hour endurance team relay feels like such a quintessentially Australian grassroots event - I'd love to see more of these in Japan too.
In Japan, endurance racing is almost all road racing - you don't hear much about motocross endurance events.
Rooted & Rooted is way too clever a team name - congrats on the win, seriously.
