Mini MX Grand Opening. Orlando

Awesome. Mini Tracks at a Wakeboard Park. Florida must be great.

Daddysmut, have you run the track in Bithalow on US50. I think its Orlando Speed World. I ran my big bike there a few times during the winter of years past. My brother lives in Port St. John and rides there quite a bit. Do you know if they run mini's there as well?

Last time I rode Bithlo (before I moved to Oklahoma) was June of last year and they weren't running pitters on the track then. Sure do miss the FL sand

Sounds like an awesome park, wish I was still there to ride it!

My buddy went over there yesterday and said that they would have to work all through the night and all day today to have it ready for 7 tonight. He said that they hadn't even put the light poles up yet. I wouldn't be suprised if it got postponed, although I really hope it doesn't. That place is going to be insane!!

The track has been ready for some time now. They are bringing in construction lighting for the grand opening. Kinda like what they used at Daytona.

The only problem right now is that it might rain. It has been raining the last couple of days as well.

That track was awesome. I can't wait to ride there when its dry, it was like riding on a slip and slide tonight. For sure the best mini-track in Florida!!

Too bad about the rain. There were still plenty of riders. Didn't get squat for video because of the rain. The place looked absolutely awesome with all the banners everywhere. Erin Bates was giving me a chub. It could have been much bigger without the rain.
