    St George Round 2

    Hey guys, I was looking at accommodation in broadford. The is bugger all around. Having never been there. Where is a good place to stay or where are you guys that are going, staying? Thinking I may need to sort something out pretty quick.

    St George Round 2

    Sugarloaf motel. 5 mins near the track.
    Or if you got 6-8 people you can share sugarloaf motel share house. 5 mins from track double lock-up garage.

    You could stay at Kilmore too, about 15-20 mins.

    Seymour about 30 mins.

    Plenty of joints to choose from.

    Hey guys, having never ridden at broadford i was just wondering what tyres you guys use down there? Have been told bridgestone.
    Also i have a r6, so was wondering what sprockets would be the best?
    Cheers for the help.

    Possibly ... I'll be on my own this time, so I won't be taking my trailer, coz I can't leave it outside overnight anywhere down there, for obvious reasons.
    I'm looking at hiring an enclosed trailer though, so I can stay at a motel an sleep with both eyes shut, knowing my stuff is securely locked in trailer.

    Tempted to come down for this. Not really interested in the EC StG rounds on the K3 but definitely doing WP and leaning towards this as well.

    Nah, it's just the one season we don't like. The one where your nuts shrivel up, freeze solid and drop off

    What's the go with the calendar saying 6 / 8 June for Broadford round? Is it Saturday qualify / practice race Sunday Monday? Or is it three day race long weekend?

    I think we will be staying at the caravan park at Seymour since I've got the whole clan coming with me. Some in cabins and kids, me n mrs in the caravan.

    Is there power in the pits at Broadford? Open pits or lockup garages.

    Thanks in advance for any info.

    It's Sat & Sun, with a practice day on Friday. Monday is a public holiday to drive home on, so you don't miss work

    Oh ok my bad, late mail. Lol. The calendar must be a typo. Thanks guys. Is everyone doing the practice Friday? Is that just a rock up and register for the practice or is it part of the registration for the whole weekend?


  34. #34
    It's an MVic organised day... like an ARDC private practice. Can't remember if it requires pre-registration or not. The St George supp regs will probably mention it. No stress though - it doesn't sell out.

    There is plenty of power at Broadford. Most garages are enclosed but not separated (ie one big shed), but the really special people (ie me every time I've been there so far) get the 'good' spot closer to the racetrack that is almost a completely open carport. The roof only stops the rain if the rain is straight down, not wind-assisted. It's cold, often wet and not secure. But don't worry; if you haven't pissed Jan off yet, you'll get a good spot in the warm and dry bit.

    I attended one of their days Friday week ago we started with 5 bikes and ended up with 7 during the morning.
    They made it 1 open group that was 6hrs long with a 1/2hr lunch break for the flaggies
    best $125 ever spent
    I'd racked up 65 laps in 3.5 stints before lunch and my flipped 2nd hand rear tyre was shot.

    Not at the Creek there isn't. Or Wakey. Is it just interstate rounds, maybe?
