Folks

Chris McBride and I went to Fort Willima yesterday to check out the road there. When we found the right one, it was quite good, but only wide enough for 2 ppl. Could be fun, with some drafting at the end (after a narrow cattle grid-with-bypass, possible to overcome). The fast section ends in a very built up area so is limited in its length.

Chris Mcb reckons it's good enought to hold a regional chammps on it, and there are soem good tight turns at the top., with decent gradient too, and hillocks. Maybe 40mph+ (have to brake for turns...)

Top section is about 0.3 miles, according to Chris's hirecar odometer, but the straight, wide run out after the cattle grid could double it, depending on built-up area people/trtaffic management issues.

Looks fun, anyway, and there are a couple of short fun runs down the back of the same hill too :)
