    Rodney Dome Valley MX track

    Well just a little about the track if no one has been their.
    I went out their today with a couple of old hats
    ArcherWC
    GR81
    GTAe
    and myself.

    Its a great track but more suited for the winter months.
    As the dust was extream
    They have plenty of different track options to mix it up a bit which is good.
    And a seprate Mini track
    Jumps were great, one double and a hand full of table tops, lots of brems and the track cuts through the trees.
    Cost was $25 for me (non rmcc member), not sure what cost is for member.

    Hardest part of the track for me was the down hill off camber woops, then into the double. Never cleared the double, rear tyre would always hit the top of the secound jump.

    Also blasted through the new Toll road on the way up, Saves alot of time, and i havent be charged yet. (even through i checked the net)

    All in all, i had a great day and found out how bike unfit i am.

    Bring on the next ride.

    yeh I went up on saturday as well, very dusty, I was picking dirt out of my nostrils all sunday night...
    the journey from North Shore seemed pretty quick, so I will be going back, and found those jumps pretty addictive, especially that double and that jump juts after it. The downhill woops tore up my pussy office hands, so nursing blisters..

    Hey GTAe, maybe not, just saw this on the RMCC website:
    "Dome Valley Park CLOSED DUE TO FIRE RISK
    Hi All, The forest company have just advised us to stop riding at the track, the fire risk is too great and until we get some rain we cannot ride in the area. We will update when open again. Cheers Dave"
