Team Meikle Racing

A pretty special day for the Meikle family at the 2026 SDBR Prizegiving! 🏁💚

🏍️ Hunter set himself one goal at the start of the season—to finish inside the Top 10 in the incredibly competitive Junior A class. Racing against a field of 30+ riders, he didn’t just achieve his goal… he smashed it with an outstanding 4th Overall. We couldn’t be prouder of the dedication, determination, and hard work he’s shown all season.

🏍️ Paige was also recognised, receiving her trophy for finishing 2nd at the 2026 Club Championships—a special reminder of what was her last ride.

The highlight of the day was the Meikle family being honoured with the Hard Charger Award. This recognition celebrated our family’s continued commitment and contribution to the club over many years, along with the fact that three generations of Meikles have shared a passion for motocross racing.

Having three generations together to accept the award made the moment even more meaningful. It was a proud reminder that motocross is about so much more than trophies—it’s about family, friendships, giving back, and being part of an incredible community.

A massive thank you to Southern Dirt Bike Riders, the volunteers, officials, committee members, and everyone who works behind the scenes to make this club what it is.

And the biggest thank you to the businesses that continue to support our racing journey:
💚 Kawasaki New Zealand
💚 Motorworx Winton
💚 Civil Construction
💚 Shotover Jet
💚 Queenstown Auto Refinishing

Your support means the world to us, and we truly couldn’t do it without you.

Here’s to another great season and many more memories to come. 🤘🏁💚

Big thanks to for capturing these shots!!

What a weekend in Christchurch at the 2026 Michael Godfrey! 🏁

I’ve never raced this track before, so it was a pretty cool experience. I raced 5 races over the weekend and my lap times got faster every race as my confidence grew.

To come away with 5th overall, I was stoked! 👊

A huge thank you to my Nana, my big brother, his partner and my nieces for coming out and supporting me. It was awesome having you there cheering me on.

Big thanks to Dad, as always, for being my coach, mechanic, motivator and biggest supporter. Thanks for all the hours you put in to get me and bike #77 to the track every weekend.

A special thanks to Tracey at Cluster MX Photography for the BP voucher in recognition of the travel. It was a really cool surprise and much appreciated!

And of course, a massive thank you to my sponsors. I hope I’m making you proud:

🏍️ Kawasaki NZ
🏍️ Motoworx Winton
🏍️ Civil Construction
🏍️ Queenstown Auto Refinishing
🏍️ Shotover Jet

I couldn’t do it without your support.
