Heres some info on the tracks to be used for Round.2 - 9/08/2009
Track selections was made yesterday, and they have now been cut in. A Decision had been made to use existing tracks that are fully established, due to the amount of rain Ballarat has had over the past few weeks. if we were to run any new freshly cut in tracks they will be destroyed like we had in round.1.
So if you check the map of Black Hill below, it shows the track path.
RED Line: Main track, which includes the big step down and continues through the old Pines track. And finishes up at the bottom pit area. (split tracks connect into this main track)
YELLOW Line: Is Split Track.1. this splits from the main track at the Table top and continues (left hand) through the pines drop off then into the road step up. cuts into a right hand switch back then off a few small drops, then cuts back into the main track to end up the finish.
GREEN Line: Is Split Track.2. this splits from the main track at the Table top and continues (right hand) through the Pines root section. then straight into a few kickers, then up onto the old school track. A line off a drop off or B Line around. then straight into a nasty length of exposed roots. Drop off onto the fire trail and table top over the side of the road gap jump. this will then connect back into the Red Main line, then to the finish line.
see you all there next week.
