So who's gonna head up to Granton on the 21st? I've never been before, so was wondering what it is like compared to Rob Roy?

The short course is slightly steeper, less pedally than the long course. Nothing hard, it's all about cornering speed there.

granton is nr Marysville. it will be sign posted from narbethong on the maroodah hwy.

The track is great. Rode it on the w/e. Good improvements on it. definatly worht the trip. probably almost as good as eildon. It is kinda testing (for me at least!) cornering is definatly going to be important.

If you don't come you will seriously regret missing this one!

http://www.farkin.net/trails.php?action=showtrail&trail_id=26 for directions. If you manage to be going along the Narbethong-Marysville road (what the actual name of that road is, I'm not sure - Maroondah Hwy probably) and miss the hundreds of cars and signs and stuff, you're retarded :) You won't miss it.

Hopefully its better to ride than rob roy, and this track last year aswell if anyone remebers it was a bit of a mud bath.
