Kenilworth would be pretty slippery in the wet, it's like hard packed clay. Tracks are pretty basic..straight, U-turn, straight, U-turn, straight, U-turn etc with a table top after every turn. They are built on the side of a hill and you wind your way up the hill.

So that's a yes then JohnnyO  ;D
I might go to qld moto park, it's a lot closer for me and the tracks are better.

Kenilworth Parklands is closed at the moment . Too wet.Check Parklands mx site. it has a red for shut,green for open sign.
Top spot for a ride in the dry though. Red clay would make it a challenge (if they let you on) ;D

The commitee has approached the land owner at Coles Creek ( original site ) about grading and or improving the track surface, to the value of $ 1000, an amount that was voted on at a general meetting, but he would'nt let us do it. :-\

Thanks for the info Rusty and Fab... I'll be putting a line through that idea whilst it's wet... still remember getting all the crap off the bike after CD last year.

Spoke to some other guys that are up at Kenilworth regularly and they said it is shite at the moment as well the trails. Bloody rain... :-\  Simo PM sent.

Johnny, what about that Moto park? everyone complains about the dust. Sure that will not be a problem this weekend although filling in all that crap on web site is a pain in the butt or have I just got a bad attitude??  >:(

Is it way too small? A bit of work with the heat gun or hot water could soften it enough to fit if it's close. Maybe some rubber friendly grease as well.

Haha adjust your attitude mate! I've only ridden the mx tracks and they're well watered and no dust.. But the trails are a different story, normally pretty dusty.
