SuperX, Geelong, Vic

[JohnMember]

Last Saturday I went to the Super X held in Geelong, Victoria. This was my first taste of this type of event and it was unbelievable. These blokes can ride. One thing that really stood out for me was how their bikes tracked. Even after jumping, if they landed on the top of the next jump, instead of the bike just spitting them of, it soaked it up.

He lost one, best best of four finals and didnt loose a heat.

In the one he lost he came third and that was even after coming off his bike with others in the first turn. He had to wait for the fallen riders to pick em selves up and start there bikes so he basically gave the rest of the field 200 metres and still managed to come third with the winner about 20 metres in front of him.

The announcer was saying it was one of the biggest tracks made in Australia.

Tdriver, I wouldnt have the skill to start one of these things let alone ride it. The torque they generate must be huge as most bikes would come out of a turn and be basically at a stop then in the space of 10 metres have the speed to clear a double.
