I wasn't aware you could camp there aye... Um the kids track looks ok aye, can't say i've had a gander from up close but the lil ones always have a blast up there. The enduro loop is pretty good :-)

Its a good place...you'll love it...the kids track is pretty simple...but still cool..I wouldn't let young kids do enduro track or MX track though!! the enduro trak is pretty hard core in places depending on your skill level...take some insect repelant!!

And if you do, make sure you really run over some ground rules! At the KB kimmy's meet there were quite a few kids on the MX track and a lot of them obviously hadn't been spoken to about keeping to the same line etc .myself and 3 other riders almost took out a kid on PW50:nono: The same kid in 4 different situations (damn boy kept riding in people's way etc)

RANT OVER :Punk:

If it's dry, most kids (and other beginners) shouldn't have too much trouble with the shortened enduro track Grace rides. Start off from the car park and take the 1st "home" detour across the dam. About 3 or 4 km and plenty fun for them.... Teach them not to ride in the middle of the track if being followed by a faster rider and to hold their line....... The rest of you will have a ball at Kimmy's....

Kimmy's is great but don't go if its wet! although if your camping I guess you wouldn;t begoing if it was wet anyway.
I have three girls and they all made the enduro loop. Crf70, 100 and a 230.
You can take short cuts on the enduro loops to miss the hard bits. My kids loved it been out there twice since the KBers christmas do.
