sunday at the minitrack

[Paul_E_D]

I'll be riding at my local spot sunday if anyone wants to join. This track would be fun for all you mini guys, but you'll need good knobbies for sure. It's also fun for full sized bikes. 2 hours or so will kick your ass. I'm thinking around noon for a start time.

damn I would be down but think I'm gonna go trail ride. I just got new rubber for the mini too!

[Kitt]

i think im in... is it the place that I already ride on noho/hatfield line?

[Paul_E_D]

Yes

[Kitt]

Yes

the sand track is TIRING... think the clay/mud one will be dry enough to ride? my buddy who's riding with me slid through some mud and tore his rotator cuff on a tree on that lower mud track. meg likes just cruising the corn fields, I think she secretly wants highway pegs on her ttr

have you ridden here? I'd like a nice shot whipping through the 8ft sand berm... it's tricky nto to bury the front wheel while whipping the rear around there...

yeah, been out a handful of times with Paul, love it out there for a local spot. def good places to snap pics, could get some cool angles in the upper berms

I only did a handful of laps on the clay track this whole season. It's been wet. It might be "rideable", but I won't be turning any hot laps out there. The sand track is where its at. And it IS tiring. I find running clockwise to be a lot less tiring than counter-clockwise, but I prefer the berms in the counter-clockwise direction.

Oddly, I let a friend ride my bike on the clay track one day and he broke his knee. It was dry, but he ran off and hit some downed trees.

what town is this in, hatfield? if its not crazy far maybe I will come out and do trail riding saturday if my bike is going.

seriously... every guy i brought there this year has gotten hurt... now meg has ridden there with no problems! haha...

I usually link up with 2 brothers adam, on a dirtbike... and his brother on a quad.

where in MA are you? there are some good trails up in deerfield too.. .lots of quads and jeeps frequent that stuff, so def less track-like than the hatfield spot.

my buddy has an 8ft wide mx track w/ about 1:30 lap times locally here... haven't been there in a while, some of the doubles are too sketch for me (50ish foot gap off 4 ft kicker is a loooong gap with a sketch wedge landing (coming up short = death) and trees on either side... It's a bit of a gap on a 250f with the run leading to it... he races and seems to make his 450 get over with no problems.

aha sounds weird

yea, not ideal... I'm hoping to have a bit of land and a small dozer once i kick this race habit.

[seth399]
