Ralph Proves Age Is Just A Number In The VIC Motorsport Title

Nov 28, 2023

Coming out of retirement to rack up some podiums at 60 years old.

Congratulations to RFS Operator Ralph Pink, from our Barnawartha Depot, for smashing the competition at the Victorian Motor Cycle Titles, held at Broadford over the weekend of the 18th of November.


Ralph finished on the podium with two 3rd places in the Vic titles, one 3rd place in the over 35’s and another in the pre-90’s. Only to go and back this up with another 3rd place in the Australian titles for dirt track, so at 60 years, Ralph’s competitive spirit is AWESOME and unstoppable. 


His decision to come out of retirement after 30 years, “to give it another go” is proving to be the best news for many, and from his performances this year, he’s running hot!   With approximately 12 bikes in each race, the younger riders are as competitive as ever, but it appears that Ralph’s youth hasn’t left, and he is ahead on all points as his competitors are in awe of his racing skills!


At another event, Ralph found himself on the podium with a 1st and a 3rd placing at the Griffith Motor Cycle Club Championship.  The Griffith region is populated by farmers and transport companies and Ralph has become an enthusiastic flag bearer for RFS, so we might expect to see an increase in our customer base during the motor cycle riding season!


He also came third in the Australian Titles and his podium rankings are becoming legendary!




Ralph is riding for The Harley Club, the oldest dirt track club in Australia, this family friendly motor cycle club embraces all ages, and as Ralph said, is a wonderful club to belong to.  He’s having such a good time he has no plans to retire a 2nd time. Best of luck for the rides ahead Ralph, a legend grows. 

 

Congratulations from all of us at RFS.
