Shannons Broadford Bike Bonanza
« on: April 23, 2017, 02:32:27 pm »
Just got to say a big well done and thanks to the organizers and sponsors of this years event . The main motocross track looked great , was still good to ride on by the time I got out on it  Sunday afternoon . The grass mx track was a fun little blast , the Vinduro  loop was great , big inprovement on the previous years , the new areas (Harley club land ?) with the hills were a enjoyable layout . Bit of a shame a lot didn't realize the new location .Both the speedway and dirt tracks were well watered and well prepared all weekend . Road race track was well supported as usual , hope the rest of the events continue to grow like the road entries have .

Yep the incorporation of the extra land meant that the Vinduro loop was much better than previous years but as for not knowing the new location, the inaccuracy of the program book was responsible for lot of the confusion. It still showed it as starting from the usual place and with the lack of directional arrows around the course it meant that a lot of people were lost and ended up riding the wrong way which is less than ideal.
85' Husky TE510, 83' XR250R, 76' DT400C, 81' XL500S, 85' XL250R, 80' XT250, 82' XT200.
Hmmm, What should I buy next?
In case you were wondering it was an 85' CR250R. Then a 76' DT250 and a 01' XR250 and it didn't stop there

      The Organizers did not get Permission from Council  to use that land untill the last
       Minute so the program was drawn up with Vinduro loop in the old ch 10 paddock .
       It could be better next year with a chance off getting the Paddock next to the RR
       circuit to  use again as well .
