With recreation placed on hold due to New South Wales and Victorian restrictions, sport in the area has either been put on hold or cancelled. Local forest closures and watering have also hindered social riding of motorcycles, making the Koondrook Ride Park the place to be last weekend.

Riders of all ages ‘geared up’ to ride in the same direction under a controlled environment, and the best thing was to have first aid onsite. A few veteran motocross racers were on deck to help introduce new members to the passion of motorcycling, while assisting the seasoned rider with new skills. 

So, dust off that motorcycle, stop the kids nagging for places to ride, remove the stress for the cautious parent and head to the Koondrook Ride Park. You don’t have to be riding to head to the park; why not enjoy a barbecue lunch while watching riders enjoy the facilities and socialising with like-minded people? Check the Koondrook Ride Park Facebook page for opening times.
