. . . and all night, because the Le Minz 24 Hour scooter event that was a lead in to last year's Expo is on again, with 15 scooters already confirmed for the starting grid and event sponsorship from motorcycle clothing outfitters, IXON.

With scooters now getting their own dedicated display space - the Australian Scooter Festival - as part of the Australian Motorcycle Expo, the Le Minz event is sure to be of even greater interest to enthusiasts of this booming market segment.
With three separate racing divisions - LA Class (moped), Unrestricted and Modified - the IXON Le Minz 24 will be a real test of not only machine, but also the poor sods riding them for 24 hours!
Spectators are welcome to attend the event free of charge at the Grand Prix Training Centre at McDonald's Road, South Morang (approx. 25 kms North of Melbourne).
The IXON Le Minz 24 kicks off on Tuesday, September 12 at 2:00pm and concludes at the same time on Wednesday 13th.
All money raised from the event will be donated to children's cancer support charity, CanTeen. Visit The Australian Motorcycle Expo website - www.australianmotorcycleexpo.com.au for further details.
