Sunshine Coast aims for 2017 road race
Australia could soon have its own version of the TT after a suggestion roadracing could be held on the country’s East coast.
David Rollins of Inside Line Events International has unveiled plans for a Sunshine Coast TT race just north of Brisbane, and has held two public meetings with local residents.
Bruce Atkinson is a journalist with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation – he says the plans have a long way to go before the first event could be held next December.
But he revealed organisers say they're inspired by the Island's event, and already have a potential course in mind:

Workforce size and pay awards make health budget 'difficult to predict'
