Land developers, policy exclusion, clowns and noise has resulted in closure of nearly all available areas.

We can try to deny it until the sky turns green and they open golf courses to bikes on Saturday mornings, but the fact is that riding dirt bikes is a risky business. Two small patches of rubber groping for traction on mud, sand, leaf mulch or gravel isn’t exactly sensible, now toss in a power-to-weight ratio that race car drivers would kill for, and you’ve got real potential for trouble. Granted, this is a major part of the attraction of dirt riding, but we need to acknowledge the risks so that we can take steps to minimise them.
