Injury Update: Kaleb Barham
After his nasty crash at the second round of World Supercross in Perth, Kaleb Barham has confirmed he’s suffered a broken wrist. This was certainly a devastating way for the talented Australia to end his season, as he was really enjoying his time racing under the CDR Yamaha Monster Energy awning in WSX and testing himself against a wide range of elite riders from across the globe.
“Sucks to be making this post, but unfortunately I had a crash at WSX resulting in a dislocated wrist with a couple of breaks. Obviously I am gutted, but as we all know, this is how the sport goes sometimes,” Barham lamented.
“Thankfully the Race Safe crew had me sorted until I was able to fly home and now I’m getting ready for surgery with Dr. Steve Andrews to let the body heal. Thank you to the CDR Yamaha Monster Energy Team, Yamaha Motor Australia and the Yamalube Yamaha team for this opportunity. Met some people I have looked up to my whole life, raced some of the baddest dudes on the planet and made some cool mates along the way.”
We wish him all the best for a swift recovery in his pursuit to get back out there in 2025.

Appin making a return to ProMX action in 2025 for round two
After a one-year absence, the popular Appin track near Sydney will be returning to the Penrite ProMX Championship presented by AMX Superstores (ProMX) calendar in 2025, hosting round two on Sunday, April 13. Words: ProMX
Appin’s elevation back into the national ProMX framework will be music to the ears of motocross enthusiasts in a major population hub of NSW, with the track located just 75km south-west of the Sydney CBD and a 15-minute drive from Campbelltown.
The last ProMX round held around the 1.65km 20-turn Appin track was on a sweltering Sunday in March 2023, but the searing heat only proved to be of minor nuisance value as all the championship classes delivered edge-of-the-seat action with Aaron Tanti (MX1), Nathan Crawford (MX2) and Ky Woods (MX3) coming out on top.
Prior to the creation of the ProMX Championship, Appin also hosted Australian Motocross Championship rounds in a region which has been a perennial pipeline for producing motorcycle racing champions across all disciplines.
The 2025 Appin ProMX round will be run by the Macarthur Motorcycle Club.
Meanwhile, Wonthaggi will host the 2025 ProMX Championship opener on March 22-23, with the balance of the calendar to be announced shortly as well as the class composition at each round.
Motorcycling Australia CEO, Peter Doyle: “I am delighted that ProMX is returning to Appin, not just for the track’s historical connection to motocross but also the layout: it’s expansive and one where riders can really stretch their legs. And I know the Macarthur Motorcycle Club will again prepare a superb track, which means that April 13 is shaping up as a celebrated ProMX return.”
