Hi Frosty, theirs a Practice track in Bacchus Marsh which isn't too far from you.
As far as I'm aware over 16 is okay to ride the Vinduro's.

Try to make it to the Vinduro's, the only one i have been to was a blast, i only wish they had 1 a month   ;D  but im thinking Drakie will not agree with me   :D  Hey Drakie any chance of making these Vinduro's go for say 6 to 8 hours, I dont mind being stuffed for the next week after woulds, if you dont mind watching the fat bloke on the DT go by :) all be it slowly.
