Sounds good, I would be interested in having a good old thrash about.
Though I did think that this track was predominately for the kids to ride in a legal safe environment. I would hate to think that we would be intimidating young riders on big four strokes or vice versa
Following on from this thread, i have just had a meeting with Dave Shears at the Plymouth Moto Park. I was blown away with the size of the track and Dave's enthusiasm in keeping the course running professionally and smoothly.
There is ample parking, first aid at every meet, the course is well maintained, long with sweeping bends, whoops and table top jumps, awesome sums this track up nicely!
We would get full use of the track and a discount if we made up the numbers, it would make for a brilliant days ridding and a great social get together for us trail riders. We need 60 people to hire the track for the day, alternatively anyone of us can attend for £20 a day or £15 after one o'clock.
Opening times are from 9.30 ish to 4.00 alternative Saturdays the 18th being the next open day.
For more information call Dave Shears on 07812392843 or 01752-518253

Dave did mention if we wanted the track for our own use it would be £15 a rider for the day based on a group of sixty, although that's not set in stone, we would have to talk to Dave nearer the time to negotiate a discount if were going as a group.
If we went as a smaller group we would still have an area set aside for us for parking and BBQ's ect, I am not sure what sort of discount we would get with a smaller group but i am sure he would offer some sort of reduction.
It's a small world as it seems Dave knows several of my old school ridding friends from nearly 20 years ago!
I really can't praise this Motor Cross set up enough, it really is an excellent circuit with plenty of room for parking, toilets and first aid on hand, superb i can't wait to give my bike a thrashing, it's been pottering around for to long and needs it's cob webs blown out.
Chris, hope you make it on Saturday the 18th, would be good to see you and fun pitting my MX skills against yours, not that i have much skill at MX ridding although i have dabbled at it
Tom, were going to give those valve bouncer boys a dam good thrashing ( in my dreams )
If I wasnt going to be in Wales I'd definately be up it.
Havent ridden a track in a while - those table tops scare the life out of me , be good to have another bash at them. Let me know when you/if you plan to go again, and I'll join you.
