I was going to list this under tracks, but it's not. It's a convenient place to ride for now. That is if I can ride on it before construction begins in earnest. I don’t have the X22 yet so I put the camera on my road bike and set sail. I know it’s slow going but hey I can only pedal so fast and I didn’t want the bars wagging to much. You can see that there’s a lot of dirt washed out onto the road from the rain and it’s in the apex of some of the corner’s. Life ain’t perfect and I’ll take it like it is. If it stays vacant long enough I’ll sweep some of the corners before a day of riding. In the first video I rode the course clockwise and on the second counter-clockwise. On a Mid the corner's will come up a lot faster and the course will feel a whole lot smaller. I can make it longer but I just try this one for now. I hope you enjoy it.

My favorite is this one I like the down hill left hander which reminds me of half of the Laguna Seca corkscrew.

Looks good. Nice to see you working on your race fitness at the same time bluelaughbluelaughbluelaugh

If you like downhill corners I'll post up another of the 1:1 tracks here. Check it out in the "Tracks" thread.

Cheers,

At my age I can't expect to throw a leg over the bike and keep up. I have to work harder to ride harder. boxing11

The rumors of it's death were greatly exaggerated bows_smilie I rode through the Isle of Nutt expected to see more houses in my proposed road course section. Nope nothing they haven't even cleared it. The houses I saw which looked furnished must have been doing a openhouse because they're empty now and the sgns are back up. I saw one work truck and it looked like he was doing maintennance on the showcase houses lawn. I'm trying to think of the best time to get in a good couple hours maybe without worrying about a stray car driving in. There are no houses but that doesn't mean someone wouldn't come down to look at a lot. Ok enough talk time to work the motor into the beast.
