The big gap on the table landing has been filled with timber.
The loose slats on the start ramp structure have been fastened down.
And the main fire road up over the hill has been cleared n graded for parking. It’s all hardcore as the fire road is physically from hedge to hedge😜
Some of us will be out there again early next Saturday morning with saws to clear all low level branches etc from the freshly graded areas.

URGENT UPDATE!!!!

Gawton is now back open on week days😎

Rock n Rolla is now repaired and fully ridable from the top again. It’s very soft but ridable. Attached video shows track modifications.

Egypt is also open again but a tad tougher than it was but it is Egypt after all😜

However Proper Job and HSD require some work before the top sections reopen again.
The lower sections of both tracks can still be ridden by using rock n Rolla to link down to them.

There is a digger and dumper on the still closed sections this weekend so please stay away for your safety.

This post will be updated with further info to keep you all informed 😎

Cheers Chaz and the team at GGH.

Strictly race days only!

IMPORTANT UPDATE!!!!

Woodlands aka Chipshop to some of us is NOT open for anyone to ride. The club has not returned to the site, it is race days only by special agreement.

As normal anyone caught riding out there other than on race days will jeopardise it’s future use for anything so PLEASE do NOT ride out there at any other times unless your riding through on the fireroads. Everything else is still out of bounds.

Thanks for your understanding Chaz and the team at GGH😎

It's been brought to our attention that riders have been on site riding without helmets and knee pads. This is required for our insurance so you must wear both! We advise full face helmets but normal trail helmets are acceptable.
