Taupo MX Track

[Hambo45]

Hey everyone,

Just wondering if i could get some info on the Taupo MX Track; if there is one. A mate mentioned a pummus based track that was still good in the wet, as winter seems to be looming.

Any info would be choice as,

Cheers,

Taupo has an awesome mx track called Digger McKeown Park, it is open most the time, you can hire a key from darryl august motorcycles in Taupo, this track is one of the best in the country and has som e huge jumps, can be ridden in most weather.

Rode it during the vet nats few year's back. Was good to start but then it rained and although still rideable my YZ came out the end of the day like it had been polished with grinding paste!

Ardmore's ok most of the time, went Wednesday after the rain Sun,Mon and by the time i left the dust was coming up! Usually if it rains the day before it's still ok but heavy/constant rain on the day pays to give it a miss.
