    Don't have a problem with riding on the beach, after all, its a road (you know wof, rego and the like). Your concern if you get a ticket, if the cops can catch you.. In fact I think we all have the odd blast up there for the go fast factor. Then it gets boring.

    Only thing is that when people get bored they tend to look for other options, like riding up the sand dunes or in the forestry, Now this does cause a problem. Number of trespass notices is apparently up to 40.

    Bring back the whoops. I like the whoops. The only exercise I get is on the whoops. Anyone can go fast on a flat track. Each to their own.


    Twice the displacement, twice the cost and a decibel problem, I'll pass on the inside brraaaap!!!

    Yep, the beach is a road and is subject to all the relevant rules. I think it is also a 50km/h limit. From what we have heard, the police are more interested in the cocks that think it's clever to ride at full chat past families, horses, dogs, fishermen etc. Be sensible and a ticket is less likely even with no WOF, rego etc but you never know on the day.

    40 is a start I suppose. Might start to have an impact when it hits 400...

    I agree with you to a point Danger, I think that they should have left a few sections of whoops just to make it interesting, when you get your skills right the whoops are not that bad.

    They will whoop up again in no time. I went out the back of the big dipper and there is some really good tracks up there.

    Sorry Cheese....we graded those out during the week... oops

    Na, just kidding. The only tracks we would like to keep graded every week are the main access tracks. MX track when finished will have whoops, as expected. Also as Cheese said try the far tracks along the eastern fence back to the convict. There are new tracks in there but we haven't marked out yet.

    is there any chance you will set up a dedicated pee wee track? the big kids in the kids area can be a bit frightening for the pee wees and make for some pretty nervous parents.
