Does anyone know if there will be any race meets at the sleeman track this year?.

[secret squirrel]

I hear there will be a race meeting there in 2013, some Nationals thing

BMXQ calendar shows a state event on November 3rd- could this be an event there- I hope so!

[bonzai]

Track will need a heap of work before an substantial event is held there! It was an absolute mess in January!

I'm not to famil with the Sleeman complex, what club runs it?

[pkaye]

The Elitist Club

No club runs it, it's pay as you go run by the management of chandler complex.

Bmxa and sleeman a bussiness, thats what seems to be wrong with every thing, BMXQ should in conjunction with BMXA in conjunction with the government should be using Sleeman to drive the sport, to boost numbers at clubs with programmes for sprockets, coaches, riders, really injecting funds and initatives into the sport. Yes i know we have pro/champ bikz, dynamites etc but what happened to getting riders into the sport and having big carnivals and having help for clubs etc at lower levels. All i see is BMXA and BMXQ taking up office space and catering for high end and not delivering to the people who pay levies etc. We all say about this but nothing happens. The government provides big dollars to build Sleeman but why not slice that money up and give it to clubs who really deliver week in and week out racing and create the riders for tomorrow. Take control of Sleeman and let clubs use it at a reasonable hire fee etc.

You can ride Sleeman just about every Monday evening at a cost of $10 for an hour and a half track time.

Pine Rivers hired the track last weekend for 2 hours. We had about 20 riders there at a cost of $10 per rider for the session. The club provided gate starters and first aid.
Added bonus was having the high performance team there doing some pre worlds training.

The track was in OK nick with a few soft spots in the 2nd and 3rd straight. I enjoyed myself greatly until I stacked with 5 minutes to go in the session.

Have they repaired the first corner where the bitumen is buldging or the scaling surface of the track?

[redman]
