Hey Guy's, I am hangin out for a ride (2010 YZ250), anyone know where I can this weekend?
-
wells road Frankston John if you want to venture back to home turf. not sure if that track near pipeworks at cambellfield is still going in Mahoneys road
-
There is also a track at Parwan ( Bacchus Marsh ) it has 2 tracks to ride on, $25 per rider. Nothing to brag about but a good hard ride if that`s what your after. Peter.
-
Wells rd if you want to test your suspension and fitness .
-
Thanks Guy's. Took my CRF450 to Wells Rd a couple months ago, rough alright lol, broke my sholder joint flat-landing over the new table-top chasing some kid named Shane Boyd; I have since realized that I am now old LOL.
Yeh Broadmeadows track is still going, hard-pack, big doubles; I'm scared to pay $40 to smash myself out on them. The track is only 25 min away for me.... hmmmm.
Keen to try Bacchus, might check YouTube to see what it looks like.
I see Stewart's Leisure Riding Park in Stawell is open this weekend, a bit far to go .... hmmm.
-
I've decided, Parwan, on Sunday, it's only $25 per bike, it's open Sat & Sun 9 - 5 and Mon & Wed 9 - 1. Who's coming? Might go out during the week too.
-
Hi John,
i should be right to go, what time are you heading out there ? I will try to round up a couple of guys also. Peter.
-
Weather forecast is for a few showers on Sunday morning, in this temp the puddles should dry pretty quick. I'll plan to get there around 9.30am ish.
Cool see ya's there; I'll be the guy in the white JT gear :-)

Townley was at Wells rd recently , you gotta pick your times .I usually just watch those guys , which is often worth the trip and then go out when they are packing it in .They usually dont stay till the end.
Also I thought that Stewarts got shutdown???

Is Parwan endurobike friendly,for someone who has'nt ridden for a while and just needs some time on a bike?
cheers Dale.

The track is pretty friendly with nothing that is really dangerous, it`s rough and not very well maintained. Your enduro bike should be ok. Peter.

Thanks, thats good news, i will be there Sunday preferably or even Monday,it"s been too long between rides and i need some bike time before the Castella Vinduro on the 29th.
cheers Dale.

Stewarts just reopened with a new track not far from the old one (apparently so I hear).
Yeh Townley came out to Broadford last week, while I was working there, he didn't ride much but looked fast. I didn't know my old friend Mike Landman is the Honda race team Manager, was good to catch up with him.
-
You guys all good to go for Parwan ride tomorrow ?
looks like it is going to rain here at the moment which is just what that track needs. Should be a good day out. Peter.
-
I'm loaded ready to go, see ya there :-)
-
I had a fantastic day out at Parwan today, caught up with a couple of the VMX forum guys. Apart from Sat & Sunday's the track is open Monday's & Wednesday's 8am to 2pm; I reckon we should make one of the days a V&V (vintage machine & veteren rider) day? Weather pending I'm heading out there again soon. Gotta go now, gotta rub on the Voltarin lol ;-)
