Top work Simon, if that doesnt get you excited, then you probably dont have a pulse. Blue Rock has got to be one of the top MX tracks around & Monza in the warm weather, how good will that be, wish I had a bike  ;D ;D

Monza's great these days. Even with torrential rain it's grouse after practice. Good to see castlemaine in there as well. Well done.
Grouse! :)

can anyone give me a breif rundown of what type of circuit castlemaine is like ( would it suit a big bore or is it tight)?

any chance (at all?) of a Barrabool round Kaw440?

I rode at Castlemaine practise day a few weeks back on the 2 oldies. For most part the track is wide & flowing and all the obstacles are tame enough for VMX. Tabletops & ski jumps, one double that only a few were doing (most were rolling it like me), and the "rythym" section has been tamed heaps since I was last there. I was getting around at a fair clip (in my mind anyway) and was doing everything except the double without any drama's. I was pretty happy with the track which prompted me to speak to the comitte about running a VIPER meeting, Simon's taken it from there. 2nd thru 5th on the 250's, big bores will be in third for most part of the track, 4th maybe 5th for the two longer straights. I reckon everyone will have a ball, sort of a smaller Monza without the undulations.
Cheers,
K

How's it compare in size to the two small doubles (the quads) of Bluerock K?

Steeper, slightly longer but you jump right into one of the tighter right hand corners. It's almost a "blind jump" in that you can't see over the up ramp. Too hard for little old, bald, fat me! KB will right though!
