hi mate. yeah not too sure what the go is this weekend, but I'll let you know.

Not that keen on the dead toad cause it will cost me $65. I was keen as to go to Kimmies, but need to dry out a bit. I'm loving the new woodhill tracks, but I want to go somewhere different next time.

Hi guys,quick piece of info. Skidder should be working on the MX track for most of Saturday to roll, bowl and a-hole a few obstacles and build a few new challenges, track will possibly be closed. All other tracks have been groomed and will be like a babies bottom. Yeah, Danger still whoops to be found. Try the loop track over in the middle of the green track.

Try this one. Don't follow the directional arrows on this though as these are for the new relocation. At least its a guide. Enjoy

Sorry about the quality, big as I'm allowed.

Reckless
19th August 2007, 12:52
Ye I couln't make it.
My excuse, seein I had already been out at Armore all Wednesday afternoon was that I was taking my son out. But he stayed up late at a birthday party Sat night an didn't want to go. So off to the Puhoi Pub for a beer this arvo on the Z1 with the missus.

Buddy L
19th August 2007, 19:02
I got their at 8.30, signup at 9.00am was the first one their.
Then my old school buddy turned up on his 07 crf450r.
signed up and rode from 9am untill 2.30when i ran out of gas. (had no gas left in the jerry can).
Being off the bike for so long i got arm pump just driving out their.
Did one loop of the sand bowl-convict tracks, had a blast on the new MX track out their as well.
was complety nackered.
My mate new all the tracks all the old track and he even took me on a new one that had just been pruned.
Had a great day at wood hill
i think that their were a few hundred bikes out their. but you didn't see any of them on the tracks.
Checked out the new car park that they are building as well, next to the MX track. still needs a little work by the looks of it. but looking great.
I will be back out their at the next chance i get.:yes:

Its a big motor track the soft sand sucks my 125's power.
The track has a handfull of small jumps but you can by pass them (which is quicker) it isn't going to take long before the track will be wooped out, as it seemed to be very popular with the "hoons" that were their. I went around about 3 laps, not as much fun as trecking around some of the "look out tracks" that nobody goes on anymore.
Their is also a small loop way out the back of the dead forest i think?
It was also like a small mx track that no body goes on, just a loop around thing, more fun then the main MX track.

Teava
19th August 2007, 20:38
New MX track is pretty dam good, was out there on it all day pretty much,
some jumps are a bit misplaced, but they weren't lying when they said
the tracks needed whoops other wise the track would just be too fast,
it was still really fast with all the whoops.
Any ways you will definitely be seeing me there again.
Big ups to the sandpit crew:rockon:
