Membership Is More Than a Fee
Membership supports the club, but a healthy club also depends on its members contributing time and effort. Riding is the reward; helping create the event is part of belonging.

One Place to Get Started
Memberships, Licences & Event Entries Are Through RiderNet
Pathfinders uses Motorcycling Australia’s RiderNet system for club memberships, rider licences and competition event entries. This keeps your core rider details and official transactions in the recognised national system rather than creating a second club process.

Being a Club Member
There Is a Degree of Expectation
Pathfinders is a volunteer-run club. Paying membership does not buy a service delivered by someone else — it makes you part of the group that creates the opportunities we all enjoy.
Nobody is expected to do everything, and we understand that work, family and other commitments vary. We do ask members to look for practical ways to contribute during the year.

SET
Help Set Sections
Work with experienced setters, learn what makes a good section and help prepare the course before an event.
VOLVolunteer
Observe, help with sign-on, scoring, coordination, setup or one of the many other roles that keeps an event running.
OBSObserver Guide
Thinking about observing? See the full walkthrough, 2026 scoring rules, support, recompense and downloadable cheat sheet.
PACKStay and Pack Away
When riding finishes, the event is not finished. Markers, signs and club equipment still need to be collected and packed.

A Simple Way to Help
Stay an Extra 20–30 Minutes
One of the easiest contributions is helping after the last rider finishes. If more members stay to pull down sections, collect signs and pack club equipment, the job becomes quick and fair instead of falling to the same few people.

Our Highest Club Honour
Life Membership
Life Membership recognises exceptional and sustained service to Pathfinders over and above the assistance and volunteering reasonably expected of an active club member.
It is not simply a reward for years of membership. It recognises people whose contribution — through administration, committee service, event organisation, officiating, section setting, mentoring, property preparation, club development or consistent support — has had a lasting impact on Pathfinders.
NominationsCandidates may be nominated by current Life Members and the Pathfinders Committee. The standard should remain high so Life Membership continues to represent something genuinely special.
A Club Belongs to Its Members
Ride. Compete. Contribute. Belong.
If a large number of members each help a little, events are easier to organise, the workload is fairer and the club is stronger.
