Potential Rockingham mountain bike park survey

[Rexy]

Check your email John, the old man came up with a brilliant idea.

I should be able to get hold of some stats to compliment what Mike is getting hold of.

Also, would it be worth including the Peel figures? Seeing as that is in essence a local based club.

I've written back to him, did he get that? 'Twas a good idea about the schools. I've modified the survey to put age and postcode in, and so far the results are saying exactly what I said in the meeting.

I might go out to walk the Tamworth Hill site on Saturday arvo to get a proper feel and take some photos.

I was actually thinking of having a look tommorow (early afternoon) if you are available?

[Jagman]

I was planning to do just that, but I'll be visiting a farm in Waroona.   .............I'll be visiting a farm in Waroona that is on the face of the scarp................. 4X track!!!!!!!

I've only spoken to the owner on the phone, but I'm sure he'll get the tractor out straight away and start pushing up jumps

On the face of the scarp. Wide open paddock.

It's what my dreams are made of.

Dual slalom!

Bump it up, the survey will close tomorrow night, if you haven't had your say do it now!


I visited Tamworth hill yesterday, there is a lot of potential there, there's a lot more than just the one hill, it's just a shame that we can't use the natural surface.

I've found a slope that is suitable for 4X and slopestyle right next to the road. It might not be the longest or steepest track out there, but it will be a track in a good location.

*Puts hands up in air and screams excitedly*

Lets get us that there land!

[Jagman]

Did you get bike buying data to help us do it? Can you pester Mike to get him to send me his?

[Jagman]

The survey is now closed, thank you all for your input. We ended up with 168 submissions, which was very good, the entire Rockingham Trails master plan only had 96 respondents.

The initial plan is on it's way to council. This includes Singletrack, a skills loop, dirt jumps and a pump track in the first stage. Second stage would include black diamond trails and a 4X track, but this would require extra funding.
