Actually looks a bit speed up but that guy can ride. Its bloody slippery out there when its like that and he was goin ok! Last KB outing it was quite a bit dryer and a lot of guys had to have more than one go at that big hill on the A loop before they made it!! Now who do we know on a Honda, renthal bars and a Chrome visor??

[noobi]

not even this guy could avoid the big bog:doh:
he did that hillclimb like it was nothing

[tommorth]

that bog is a menace he went exactly where i did except I got bothwheels in the deep part not just the front lol
seems to carry plenty of speed down those slippery hills

Wow! That place looks awesome! :D Thanks for posting that! :drinkup:

Must try and get up there one day if we ever get any spare time away from our motocross! :laugh:

So.... I'm thinking of heading down for a ride this weekend. Never been there before, just hoping the end of school holiday traffic doesn't cause problems.

Reckon it will be a messy bog or dry?
Anyone been lately?
How much to get in?
:weird:

[noobi]

$20 for an adult
$15 for under 15
woman and minis are free i think

watch the video, after rain its probably similar conditions
bloody near unrideable unless you can ride really fast and have a very sharp tyre
and with a big bike its even harder as it will involve lots of pushing
honestly i wouldnt go down this weekend, do the GNCC:jerry:
let it dry out, its 100x better in the dry
but its up to you:shit:

[krad_nz]

Cheers!
One more question.
If it doesn't rain from now until Sunday, you reckon it will be dry?

[noobi]

from now till sunday would be fine but

use this site to check for rain, if you dont already.
normally its spot on and its updated every few hours:love:

[laserracer]

yep i agree first time there was last weekend and it was dry, theres a steep downhill section on the b track that in the wet would be very nasty especialy for learners or first timers,:shit: ive been told it needs a week to dry out after rain.But when its dry its a great ride and i cant wait to go back

[krad_nz]

Cheers guys, think I'll risk it :P

[tommorth]

theres a bit in the other vid where on of them cant even stand up as its to slippery lol
im looking forward to going back bikes staring to go back together now yay
