Is anyone keen for some dirt practice at the sportsman's north brisbane track, if so let me know and we will try to organise a saturday or sunday arvo session before stanthorpe.
I'm keen. I'm free most weekends apart from the WSBK one as I'll be at the island.

Yes yes yes yes yes!!!!!!!
Sounds good Relphy.
As a related note I'm probably going trail riding (dirt setup) this Sunday at Beaudesert with a club down there. $25 for the day, apparently they have a 15km loop and a nice natural terrain MX track. Anyone else keen?

I gather you are talking about the RTCB ride Tom??
The beaudesert RTCB ride is quite good, Last year they had 3 loops, easy, medium and hard. It was really sandy in places last year so I would think dirt wheels are a must. I didn't see any natural terrain MX track but things may have changed over Xmas.
Yeah I think so. Some of the guys at work were talking about doing it.

Yes its all dirt and we have a bobcat and tipper to make any style of track we like.

Yes it is. I rode there late last year with slicks on. Plenty of grip to be had as its pretty hard packed and jumps aren't crazy big. It'll be a great place to practice for Stanthorpe.

I was going to ride the RMZ with MX tyres but I will wait and see what other practice sessions are going on before I commit to ride.

She'd be a bit wet down there Lee.
I bet there wasn't any speedway Yesty.
Could be wrong tho
I'm heading there now, with both wheel sets in case. If there's no riding... Work on track? Lunch? Pub day?
