Motorcross tracks in Christchurch?

[TrentNz]

I'm looking for a place to ride my kx250f other then rivers in Christchurch, only been here 3 months so no clue as to where to ride :thud:

I think Weedons Ross rd opposite the west melton air field is the main chch mx track?

[TrentNz]

Looked it up on google maps, only thing i could find is this - -43.508826,172.377921
guessing its that place?

there is a motorx track on the north bank of the waimak. turn left after the old waimak bridge then follow the track around to the right.

Bumping a bit of an old thread, but asking the same question.

Have been playing on the Waimak tracks for a while, but keen for some new scenery, and with Xmas holidays coming up, hoping to get lots of riding in.
Plan on checking out the Greta Valley park at some stage, but wondering if anyone knows any other tracks that are open to the public around canterbury?

Is the Backflips track in Timaru open to public, and also the one someone mentioned in Springfield?

Planning on joining up to the West Melton track as well next time they have a track day, see they post regulary on Facebook opening times and costs etc.

Any other motocross tracks nearby that are worth checking out?

Does anyone know if this is a public track, or private track?

I'm about 50% sure that's private used by the Grassroots MX people. Think there's a gate with signage there somewhere.
