Heads up on the old Woodhill motorbike park.
Hi Guys an Girls.I thought we had better post a thread before the ministry of mis information got outa control.
As some of you may of heard Kawasaki have come on board as the principal sponsor of "The Sandpit"(shit, its hard to keep a good thing quiet) along with another couple of well known and respected suppliers/brands within the industry. We will have more on this in a couple of weeks as we completely overhaul and rebrand the whole operation. Signage for the entry at Rimmers Rd (approx 8k north of Waimauku on SH16) is being made and should be up shortly subject to compliance with the local council. Website construction is underway so look out for it in about two weeks time (www.thesandpit.co.nz)
In the mean time we will have groomed all of the main tracks by this weekend. In fact the leveler will be working one day a week to ensure it stays this way, yep its fast, rev limiter working overtime. Pruning started last weekend (thanks for all the help guys and girls) and this will be on going for some time yet judging by all of the old tracks that we have re-discovered.
We have a bit of a problem with the beach access ploughing straight through the center of the present sign on area. The process for getting this changed is on going and we should be in the new Molley Rd (back of the Convict track) headquarters within a month or so all going according to plan. Meaning no more pit racers up and down the road.
A map will be available, but not until we move as the tracks will be rejigged and re routed for a better flow.A few of the tracks will actually be reversed to add another dimension. Until then we have put up more arrows for directional purposes only.
Pricing is still the same at this stage. Same price for all brands as this will be our on going policy. Opening hours are 8.30 - 5.00 on the weekend but will change to be open at least one day mid week as soon as the move is complete. We are on the lookout for an operator(pit crewmember) to work(yep you get paid) on a Wednesday. Give us a call if you know of anybody interested.027 646 9709
Well thats all the info for now and we will keep the updates coming through. Thanks
