I went the international MX in Taupo - and was very impressed.

The track was spectacular and also interesting. Had a couple of sawdust whoop sections that proved very hard to get a rythm on - even for the top guns. The second one especially was tough and it wasn't until late in the day that Cody Cooper was first to figure it out (by jumping onto and off a table-top which enabled two of the bigger whoops to be cleared). Everts and Coppins then did likewise - but they were the only three riders to do it.

The event was very well run and arrangements for spectator control and viewing were well-done.

Cost for the day was $22.00 - and I don't think anyone could complain they didn't get their money's worth.

Well done Taupo Motorcycle club.
