Description:
"Beginner
Ovals
For those just learning to ride we feature a completely flat
beginner oval and a beginner oval with small obstacles.
There is parking beside the beginner ovals. The ovals are
open to mini and full sized bikes.
Pee Wee Track
The Pee Wee Track is for beginner kids riding pee wee 50cc
bikes and under.
Mini Track
The Mini Track is for beginner to advanced kids riding mini
bikes from 50cc-100cc two stroke or 150cc four stroke mini
bikes. Mini quads and adult mini bikes may also be ridden on
this track. This track is used for Our Tuesday night mini
moto events and is often closed to casual riding on Tuesday
nights.
Full Sized Tracks:
The park has three main full sized tracks that have been
designed to be run in various configurations and are often
combined for variety. The selection of track configuration
is based on creating a fun and different lay out. Often the
track is selected that best accommodates soil conditions and
future event prep work. The selected course layout is
usually used for a week at a time to maximize water
retention in the soil.
1. Main track. This track occupies the entire north
end of the park in front of the bleachers and main tower
This track is the track used for our biggest events. This
course features our biggest jumps and best spectating.
2. East track. The East Track is located at the north
east section of the park. This track features easier and
less jumps than the main track but, don't think it is easy!
Tight corners and whooped out straight always keep it
challenging.
3. Hill Track. Located on the South East corner of
the park this track is more natural terrain style with few
man made jumps. It is fast and features sandier soil than
the rest of the park."
