Definitely not for those who dont like jumping.... I personally love the SX track, tight, technical, and some big jumps. Did you ride the MX track at all?

Fort plain, its on rte 5.

www.twistervalley.com though the page hasn't been updated in a while, its a very fun track. The SX track is very tight technical with some doubles and tables and a rythym section, the MX track has apparently been updated substantially since the last time I've been but 4th and 5th gear runs are not uncommon and they are some big/small jumps on that as well. The only problem with the whole place is it is hardpack and gets dusty so watering is difficult, however its usually quite breezy there and it blows the dust away. They also have a minis track inside of the MX track, and I've heard they put a utility track in. Its also one of the few tracks in our area that runs an actualy stock and mod pit bike class. Def worth the trip to check it out sometime. They run open practices on tuesdays from 4:30 til 8:30ish and friday night SX under the lights.

im 13 it was all blasters and 300's but its my first year,i didn't get any practice in because it was so late by the time we got there, so i had to go balls out, i love to jump just not used to it, and its rough on a blaster with warn out suspention lol, we figured out i blew a shock thats the reason i ended up crashing, anyone have any tips for doubles? or anyone wanna give a novice some help? at mototown or something?

Took me quite some time to get the doubles down there, its either make it or hurt.... no happy medium there, I went to a few open practices and got everything down, make it much easier running under the lights. Its much easier on you and the machine to overshoot than come up short keep that in mind, basically build as much corner speed as possible and hold it til you clear the jump hahaha

Really? Royal has been terrible this season so far... no upkeep what so ever, and motomasters is boring, no jumping at all hardly.... but thats a true MX track I guess, where in CNY are you, Im in manlius now... looking for some people to ride with...
