Australian national team at the International Six Day Race

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Australian national teams in the International Six Day Race are a selection of drivers for the national rankings of this competition.

According to the regulations for the six-day race, national teams were allowed to compete for the Trophy (later: World Trophy), Silver Vase (from 1985: Junior World Trophy) and the Women's World Trophy. The size of the teams and the regulations for participation changed several times over time.

In 1925, a national team from Australia took part for the first time with a silver vase team at the International Six-Day Tour in Southampton. - However, this should also be the only time for more than 50 years: It was not until 1977 that an Australian national team took part in the competition again.

In 1995 a victory in the Junior World Trophy and in 2015 in the World Trophy could be achieved for the first time. The women's national teams were extremely successful and have so far achieved a total of six times and all of these victories in a row.

The list does not claim to be complete.
