Go for it Dellorto, it's different to ride being pea gravel, but it's way cool once you're 'on top'. Builds huge, soft berms and whoops for Africa.......

**DELLORTO** · 30th May 2009, 21:56

Awesome blast at Mercer today, mate as clmintie said, doesn't take long for the track to berm up and the whoops

I only throw the bike away twice, broke the berm haha.

That sand is tough. Fell off 3 times in the first practice!.. Not sure the KDX is cut out for that stuff but probably more to do with the rider!.

Kids had a blast on their KX's on the minitrack

I wonder over to the minitrack, was looking out for the KX, thought Id catch up with you,

when they split the B group, I could fang it along with out worring Im going to crash in to some of the younger not so confident riders, My trouble is fitness, after about 5 laps of hanging on/ I like to think I was flying along, I started missing my lines, ending up higher up the berm and end up braking through,

Hey clmintie needed you taking pics I reckon I most of looked good when I did get it right.
