visted the track today, all the big holes filled in .rain made the top 50mm mushie, low cloud and rain made a trip to the top a waste of time.
the big question is who owns the trashed surf near the top, scrap steel now have a photo will load it soon

forgot to add gave a biker a fright, two of them moved to the side of the track to let us passed once the zuks when passed one bike moved forward the other stayed where he was , and the old saffy as i moved slowly passed decieded it was going to move in his direction, 2300kg on mud, he was not a happy camper after that :lol:

as of sunday muddy 50mm deep all holes filled, no big bug holes a bit of a sunday drive with a little mud, if we could not cut the track up to much and use the sides for big spin ups would be cool

spanky · Post by **spanky** » Thu Mar 08, 2007 7:52 pm
