Rainbow Desert Enduro

Victorian Parliament - 9 August 2017 - Ms KEALY (Lowan) — What an amazing success the inaugural Rainbow Desert Enduro was this past weekend. There were awesome vehicles on show, phenomenal community support, many visitors to the region and a heap of fun to be had by racing teams and spectators alike. This event is a huge drawcard for the local area and must be retained for coming years.

Huge thanks to the organising committee, led by Brett Price, in conjunction with Cr Ron Ismay and fellow locals. If not for the passionate locals, this event would not have happened. Whether they offered land, volunteered at the event or just offered their friendship over the weekend, I thank them so much. I also thank the team at BFGoodrich CAMS Australian Off Road Championship for seeing the potential of the Rainbow region as a host. I hope we can develop a long‑term relationship with racing in our region into the future.
