Hey guys,

Just wondering how many of you Victorians out there race or ride dirt bikes?

After about 10 years away from it I just bought myself an 07 YZ250 which I love but im strugling to find the best place to start riding again. Checked out Broady which looks fast and a lot of fun, had a look at Frankston which is really sandy rough and has no real serious jumps and going to look at Nunawading this weekend.

Just after a bit of advice or for you guys to share your knowledge.

Thanks

There's a track in Vermont South that I believe belongs to the Nunawadding MotoX Club or something.. It's down the road from where I live. Always people up there so maybe worth looking into.. I don't ride a bike but Maybe you can check it out.

depends on your skill level.

frankston is good first up on a saturday morning, not many people there and the track is freshly graded.

nunawadding is a good track, but last time i want there they had some big jumps ( supercross style doules and tripples) but id say they would have taimed it down now.

if you want to travel, blue rock is a good track, probly the best in vic at the moment. but its a MA sanctioned track (motorcycling australia) so you need to get a day membership or get a year membership with ma. all good tracks are MA. so its worth getting a MA licence.

there is heaps of tracks mate, if you need any more info just ask.

also, the 07 yamahas are a great bike, i had one when they come out brand new, but had a big crash and sold bikes to build the ute, iv been off it for 2 years, but started again about 3 months ago. on a 2002 yz 250 f.

Bacchus Marsh has a track but I think you have to be a member.

there is two out in baccus. one is a MA track and you have to be a member, the other is a public track, next to the speedway. its not too bad, the MA track shits all over it. better than nothing tho.
