Only 1 complaint, why has it turned from a "natural terrain" circuit on a lovely hill side into a "motocross" track cut into the hill?
Still as good days racing, even taught my son how to fall off a sidecar ;D

Is that why you kept "falling" off Vaughn.....LOL....a natural terrain track is only "natural" one time....continual use means it needs to be repaired otherwise it becomes to rough to ride on, if you used it once a year it would last a lot longer but still needing repairing/re-seeding to keep it in top shape.....unfortunately we don't have enough paddocks to do that with. There is also the cost factor.....you don't want to be paying $150 everytime you ride unless it's something special....yesterdays cost per rider at $60 each was a bargain.....hell, we even threw in the blue sky's and 27 degree temp for free.....where else are you going to get that in the middle of winter?

Nah... he loved it and wants you to take him for a lap, should be easy for you, even with crutches.

Thanks to all involved for a great event. Had fun cruising around and getting a feel for it again after far too long away from the scene.
Seemed like there was a good turn out and everyone having a blast. Run quite smoothly with a good range of riders in very grid.
I was surprised so many people were on the line for the last race of the day, shows how much fun everyone was having!!!

Cheers, and again Thankyou to all those that put in the hard work to get it to what it was.
Cheers
Kim :) :) :) 8) 8) 8) Why don't we have dirtbike emocons???
