   Hi John . Happy New Year. Firstly  Apologies for my comments Re Using ATF.

   I just have a thing about using ATF in Gear Boxes.  Anyway the MIA MIA Track.

   I have some Questions.   Is this your property.   I know Were it is.   Its Easy to Find.

    Good Drive. But watch out for Skippys.

     Is it only made for Vintage and Post Classic ?. What days is it Opened. Who do you contact.

      Awaiting you reply.

Hi, I made the track so that is 'comfortable' for older bikes & riders, there are plenty of ride parks for the kids.  I ride there when the weather conditions make it nice, usually the next day after rain, doesn't really matter whether it's a weekday or weekend.

It is dry, hard & dusty in Summer and I don't have any way of watering the place.  I have finally set-up good drains to handle excess rain, the next day after rain is enough to dry the surface layer, so that it is not slippery but the ground is softer.

We canned the ride for tomorrow, the temp is forecast is in the high 20's with not enough rain forecast to soften the track, so we wait for the right conditions to arrive.
