We have made some changes to the track to make the most difficult areas easier to ride for all without removing the technical difficulty that the more proficient riders loved. If your unsure of your skill level this will provide you with an ideal non pressurised environment in which try out the route and decide if you would like to race this awsome track.

NDH also have a fleet of bike specific trailers that will prevent the usual frame and fork damage associated with flinging your bike in the back of a cattle truck or tractor trailer.

Great day on the uplift yesterday....really enjoyed it, you can get 10 runs in from 10am till 4pm, picked up right at the bottom of the track and dropped of at the top. Alterations have improved the top corner, I only came off once on it yesterday and most times did not even put a foot down....it is still a challenge mind!! There is also talk of a possible alternative line going in to open up the options for uplifts/races.

They are still taking entries for the race on the 22nd up until next weekend.

Have to agree with that, really was a good day. Plenty time on the bike for a change, more runs than I could handle. Even after the track had a good soaking from a shower it still rode okay, looking forward to the race weekend now.
