View Full Version : Upcoming races?
Is there any in the Akld area in the near future that isn't MX or The rb scramble. Got a real itching to do a bit of racing.
Wasn't there a chainsaw race up dome valley or something?
And some Poker race at the sandpit:msn-wink:

first looks interesting but is around 3.5 hours from my house acording to google probable closer to 3 but thats alot of driveing for two hours riding
and the second over 7 hours each way 500 kms farrk!!!! why is everything so far away?
points for looking though
wondering about the two man is it still happening ? wild west honda has shut up shop and i think they were sponsering it so maybe its a no go

Wednesday 2pm-4pm during daylight saving but I don't think its a super hyped up day even if you turn up on the race day. Although I've only been out on a Wednesday.
Ardmore is a shortish club type MX track not a x country event like the GNCC. Jumps are easy to medium depending on how hard you hit them. All sorts of levels of riders out there too. Track is always well prepared especially compared to the corrogated terrain we ride at places like Thunder.
Climitie, his daughter and Telliman are regulars out there I think.
Your old Bike would have been a little enduro but you'd go real well on your new Kwaka mate, be perfect for that place, harden up the compression about 5 or 6 clicks and go for it!! I think you'd enjoy it unless you really hate MX over GNCC type racing.

Wouldn't mind ardmore but would want to have a good practice session first so I knew the track etc. Can't make wednesdays tho, so might try dome valley. Anyone know what racing is like up there????
As hating MX over GNCC, some of the rounds were like a MX track.

I only commented because on the rides we have done together, we've never really spoken about it, so weren't sure how you felt about the MX side of things.
Good luck be prepared to get hooked in competition, once the bug gets ya you eat, sleep and breath it! Well I did in karting so can't imagine MX is to much different !! LOL!!!

Wednesday is a fun day for a ride, but as Kat is working a few days now, so I have to pick Jack up on Tuesdays and Wednesdays so I can't make it to Ardmore anymore....
