    dont know if you have been there but i found goanna tracks a lot better suited for that , pay by the day not committed to the full weekend , throw the swag out where ever you, want instant hot showers and clean toilets and far better tracks and drinking where ever you want but i think the preferred rule is no drinking till after 5 oclock ( thats when all tracks are closed) but if your not riding you can drink or so my wife seemed to do on the weekend :blink: :blink: :blink:

    How old is your son ? Mine is 4 and had his first double on a 75cc the other day, he’s asking for his own now.
    What sort of bike did you start your son off on and how old was he?

    Will is 8 and has been on bikes since 4 we started off with a kdx 50 (same as JR 50 but yellow plastics) then a ktm 50 sx junior and now hes on the ktm 50 sx senior i have 2 boys the older Joe being 10 and to be honest they are both very cautious riders but this year Will is starting to push the limits a bit Joe is quite happy going around at his own speed and theres nothing wrong with that he still loves his 65 and you have to stop him to get him to have a rest the main thing is they both are having fun doing it

    its good t o have a few different tracks to get on , there wasnt many there that day but this track is very rough ( i dont know whether it shows on the gopro) and when they have a big day theres lumps and mounds everywhere very few places to sit down which i reckon is great training for the end odf the day at most tracks getting over the acceleration and braking bumps off to goanna tracks for 2 days over easter will put some of the tracks up on here nextweek .
    How many weeks to go Razzle??

    yeah i was thinking the only tool ill need to get is a tension wrench and that will be alot cheaper then $285 lol

    Mate give me a call if you aren’t confident in doing it yourself. I will lend you a tension wrench if you want to have a go on your own.

    even better someone that knows what there doing that can show you and ask any questions if you need to

    i think one of the best things about owning a bike is actually learning to fix & maintain it each brand has its different quirks so you can learn quite alot
    i took on a complete rebuild of my TE 510 husky after doing a bigend your best freind is the computer it has all the references you need as you said theres one being done on you tube follow the points that hes doing thigs may change model to model so invest in a good manual for your specifics but the basics will be the same

    One more thing use the sighting lap to explore areas off the main riding line as you won’t be going fast and you can avoid that rock stump cliff etc :laugh: this will be very important later on the race when the braking and acceleration bumps get crazy so you can be confident to go out into the rough which will soon be the smoothest line.

    this is a good point aaron as some of the track changes so much as the day goes on and as fatigue settles you want to be able to conserve energy and if you think your buggered wait until you come off and have to actually pick your bike up and then you will understand how buggered you really are the last thing you want is to picking your bike up so ride fast but smart
