    dunno the place but pretty awesome pics

    You only need two tools in life - WD-40 and Duct Tape.
    If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40.
    If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.
    And now a third thing a bloody big gun to shoot theives with!

    There's a new place with a foam pit halfway between Invercargill and Dunedin, I believe. Somewhere in the Catlins?
    It's a private place, owned by one of the ex-crusty demons. He's going to do open days and instruction once it's finished. I can't remember any more, may be wrong in fact.

    To hit that step up on a 125 id say you would be fourth pinned or mid 5th we had a huge step up on one of our setups and thats what i hit it in. i think it was around 100-130 foot had a ramp curve carved into the dirt at the bottom of a hill.

    Foam can be had for free from bedding places around the country just off cuts etc. The hard part is transporting it.

    I would love to ride there
