Just because you spent an amount not matter how high on it does'nt justify breaking the law and sullying our names as a total because I assure you it is the person that rides illegally and gets cleaned up that will make the news and ruin it for the rest of us not the gus and girls riding on trackes liscenced and insured that will create headlines parks were meant for people to take theyre children to play or for them to exercise or enjoy the outdoors with out the likes of you or anyone tearing around on a mini chopper it is wrong you cant justify it and you should stop there is a park up her in syd that a few guys go to it is the basket ball courts that they ride on this is really not the correct thing to do either and is why we stopped doing it cant condone this type of behaviour it is WRONG!!!! :roll:

thats the whole point of this topic!!!!
WE ALL NEED A PLACE TO RIDE AND PRACTICE FOR RACES.
i am in perth and i can ride once a month at cockburn kart track or drive an hour and a half and goto waneroo kart track. we need some place to ride or practice at other times. people need to practice before racing, the go kart track dont even allow for practice.....only race meets.

where i live you always hear a pocket bike, mini chopper or thumpstar come past your house, this happens at least 2 to 3 times a day, and im sure if these people had a place to ride they would go there instead of risking there bike being taken off them because there is a $500 reward to anyone who dobs them in.! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
even a carpark track set out with witches hats would be sufficient, but the councils would rather handle compliants and offer rewads for people dobbing there neighbors in, rather than spend a little money each week. they allow BMX public tracks so why no pocket bikes each spor is just as dangerous.

I'll do my best but all i see happening is me getting my bike taken off me and alot of others (i hope it makes them realise(the council) that they can make the public happy and not just make money off them from fines)
if only they approve an area for people to ride they will make alot of people happy.(riders and the rest of the public that has to put up with the noise.
people in every state of australia should stand up and we might all find somewhere to ride.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
