Hey is there anywhere around Wellington, or the closest place i could go to practice?
Thinking about converting again to a motard but would really like to get some track practice in.

Yeah same!
I know that the buckets used to run a motard class at the slipway track, now they're at the kaitoke kart track I dont think they do - certainly not the days I was there watching recently.
May be worth contacting the bucket guys though - they might have a motard day...?
Other option if my wheels are here and on in time is the Pacific club track day at Manfield on the 14th. - Not exactly local (I'm in Pram) but could be fun.
I have noted that Vic club dont run motards anymore sadly, so I was wondering what class my soon to be motarded DR650 bike will fall under? F3 as its a single maybe? or in with the 600's? maybe even the F1's - eek! Would it even be eligable for pro twins ?
Sorry to hijack the thread with those questions, but I'll certainly need some practice anyway!

Also the club runs hillclimbs in summer, which is open to type of bike. These are usually based around Napier & Hastings area. Next Hillclimb is Sunday 11th March, Seafeild Road. The road is just north of Napier. Keep an eye on www.pacclub.co.nz for other events
