Try Mirboo North or Stoney Creek later in the year in the VCM series. Jerry

Unadilla! One of the best 'real' mx tracks in the world.
Hannah was the king of Unadilla.

Your right Jerry I rode at I Stoney Creek a few years ago and it was a sensational track with the big hills, fast straights and round bales as corner markers. Not to mention the hospitality and good organisation. More like the old days.

Regards
Stan

Hi Stan if you liked Stoney Creek wait till you see Mirboo North (if you haven't already) BRIGHT green grass,off camber corners, natural terrain only used once a year. Greasy in the morning and a hint of dust at the end of the day (last 2 years anyway!) There is just a hint of Xmas Hills about it if you want my humble opinion. There's some photos on the VCM website. That may even be me on the old boat tail Bultaco bringing up the rear of the field! Cheers Jerry

Hi Jerry, you have got my mouth watering about Mirboo North. Sounds like I should dust off my 360 mk 7 for the next one. Problem being my fitness or lack of it.

Regards Stan.

They haven't locked in the dates for this year yet, it's usually the second last meet for the year around September.  Mirboo and Stoney Creek are a must!!
