Just recived from John Cobb.

"We have got a lot of of work to do, but if everything goes well, we should
have the track open again this Sunday 25th February. Check the raceline 09
2680886.

Thanks to everyone who got stuck in and supported us, especially with the
online petition (now at over 1350 signatures) which really shows how the
riders feel about having their track closed.

If you haven't checked it out yet or signed, the url is :

http://www.PetitionOnline.com/Ardmore/petition.html

The Environment Court has granted our stay to reopen. We can open on
wednesdays from 4.00 until 8.00 in summer, 1.00 until 6.00 in winter and on
every alternate sunday from 10.00 until 4.00. We can also hold our Schools
Motocross Championship.

The Councils lawyers are discussing our original Town Planning Tribunal
consent with our lawyers. Thousands of riders have ridden at Ardmore and
thousands of hours of work have gone into the track based on the original
consent, so its something that is definitely worth fighting for.

looking forward to seeing you all at the track

John Cobb"

I think we need to hold a welcom back day, get some radio plugs going and get heaps of people down there to help build up some money after what I'm sure has beena huge financial burden.
