We reckon Ashley and Pauline Sprenger, from Queensland, are two of the most dedicated pit parents in Australia. The pair hit the highway every weekend of the year with their three children and put more than 40,000kms on their vehicle traveling to dirt bike events or going riding.

The family attends every Yamaha Australian Off-Road Championship and Queensland enduro event and spend their spare weekends at organised trail rides or training by doing motos or trail riding.

The Sprengers, who live west of Brisbane, all ride dirt bikes. Pauline and Ashley love riding because "of the socialising", they also feel enduro and motocross is "really family-oriented" and gives the whole family time together.

All three kids compete seriously and have hopes of rising to the top of Australian off-road.

They are also a 'true blue family' - Ashley has always ridden Yamaha's and has passed the passion for the brand on to his wife and kids.
