For what it's worth, in my mind it would flow better without that section last year with the 3 or 4 bumps in a row. I reckon a few little ones here and there to add interest but the best thing is if we can keep the flow going. That way it's a tighter race. Just my 2c worth.

C'mon Woody, that bloody Honda wouldn't get over a tabletop! I'm thinking a decent water hazard would be nice.

Had a few Dirt trackers interested in this event that were a bit worried about the jumps,
I think that although last year they were not very big they were a bit sharp on the old bikes bit like a kicker,
maybe a bit more ramp if possible.
Just a thought

I agree. If you have jumps, give them longer ramps. And don't have two or more in a row. More of a TT style thing.

Keep that weather dry and sunny!!

......but put them close to the corner - jump, land, turn 8). That will make it interesting and challenging for the good riders but safe if a tired rider gets in wrong - just run wide and lose 2 seconds ;) :)

I didn't mind the series of little humps at all. I struggled a lot more with the larger one near the finish line - not only was the extra size an issue, but you tended to hit it a lot faster.

I'm no jump fiend, but they did kinda add something - at the very least, they reigned the dirt track boys back in a bit...  ;D

The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.
