    Shit Sammy its a pretty full on place my girl. Especially if they don't spilt A & B into sessions!! At your speed you will get the crap roosted out of you. There is no beginners track there either.

    Its the last evening session I think 4-8pm before the time changes to daylight savings time of 2-6ish. But check with the raceline on Wednesday Ph:268-0886.

    I'll try and make it if I can.

    you should be fine, both Grace and Sophie ride there, i ride there and im crap, so if they do split i would be in the same group as you.
    Why would you ride that long and that gnarly stuff if you don't have to, Its what we do, we love it.

    Hope to get there, its the last 4-8 session until daylight savings next summer.
    You'll be right, just stick to your line and they will go around.

    Thunder doesn't close for winter does it?? But its a good option, makes sense to what you say I can take her their. I'll check with my boy tonight see where he wants to go!

    Sorry to Hijack your thread Sammy!
    Ardmore is a good track and the other riders are really good out there, but I personally think it would be more fun for you if you can at least get through the Thunder B loop and you are good enough for a slowish go on the main loop at Harrisville. Even I ride in the Ardmore B group if its divided up for old farts and learners. Others could well disagree and we'll look after you out there but that's Just my 2c! Up to you, Your very keen 100 points for that!!!
