    Moto Gymkhana

    If you've seen the youtube videos then you'll know what this is all about.

    This is our first attempt at holding one of these events and we hope it will grow into a regular competition.

    There has been a great deal of interest already, with registrations starting to stack up. So if you're keen to have a go, check out the attached flyer and get registered!

    Spectators are welcome too, so bring the family along for a look - or better still, as supporters!!!

    We have a good number of entries, but have room for some more!

    If you're keen, check out the flyer in the OP and get registered quick.

    The Ozone coffee caravan will be there, so if you just want to come along for a look, bring some friends, kids or family (preferably your own ) have a coffee, snack or cold drink and check it out.

    We've got everything from pitbikes to 1200cc Bandits entered, so it's sure to be a bit of fun.

    See you there!

    What's the ideal bike for this?

    A GN250?

    Anything with flat 'bars, a good turning circle and smooth throttle response really.

    In reallity you can do this on anything, it's all about smooth lines and looking where you want to go

    You and me both!

    Did you notice everyone had their 'Race Face' on in the pictures...

    Tell you what, it may have only been low speed stuff, but it was so much fun - already started looking on Tardme for a dedicated gymkhana bike...

    Bloody hard to beat Jonno - there were no penalties for keeping the thing up with your knee...might have to change the rules next time!

    Thank you for coming along and supporting it. Pity about the weather early on as I think it put a lot of spectators off. Was happy with the turn out we got considering.

    Thank you very much for taking the time to come and get some shots, Kevin.

    Awesome pictures. Can't wait to see the rest.


    And thank you both for your feedback today. There were some great suggestions and we are already in the throws of putting the next one together!
