Hey RBers.
This weekend I went to a mates house in Torquay.
We went to Anglesea bike park and were going to go to Torquay bike park and check it out but it turns out they've closed it again! we were very disappointed so I decided, I may as well make the long walk here worth it and snuck in through the fence and took some pics.
Hope you enjoy.
1. is the starting mounds
2. The smallest set (better for pumping or 3 Y.O.s)
3. The second smallest set (each jump has 2 lips)
4. View from the start of the biggest.
5.-7. What the biggest set looks like from the side.
8. Every set (view from start mounds).
9. This is an extra picture of a big hip/normal jump they're building(Looks mad with 3 lips). I think they may build a set after it.
10. This final picture is a picture of the jump in picture 9 but a view from the start mounds.

where actually is it? might go check it out one arvo.
It's across the river from the footy ground and up about a kilometer. It's in the first housing estate after the massive round about which points in the Jan Juc direstion. I didn't get there by car I walked there and I live in geelong so I hope this helped but I'm no pro with the directions.

Can't wait to head down there. The council had planned the open day. Only to plant trees because the jumps needed more time to bed in.

If anyone is going to be down there whenever, just PM me as in live in Jan Juc (5 min ride away), and I can show you 'round the new jumps as well as some of the older gaps and stuff.

They're leaving it as is, World Trail has done they're thing and closed off the jumps, now the council is just doing some landscaping.

Oh yeah, I was talking to the council person behind it, and he said 2-3 more weeks for them to bed in....

Geelong isn't scum, the only places that would have something like that happen to them is Norlane and Corio.
It would have been good if they built proper dj's though...

I will be there around Christmas time (from Gold Coast), hope they are still going strong cause our public council jumps erode allot in like a month. Do they hold Jams or comps at Angelsea or planning for this place?

In summer on Wednesday nights they have chainless 4x races at Angelsea. They hold Ride days with dirt jumping as well sometimes there. Haven't heard anything about Torquay yet.
