OMCC JETS TRAINING 8-10-2022

The OMCC Junior Enthusiasts Trials Squad met on Saturday for some more training and Fun activities. Weather the previous day flooded one of the sections so Rocky kindly set another on higher ground. We still had some nice water practice in the sections

Practice included tight turns for the sub juniors and some more serious stuff for the juniors who even got an intro to hopping techniques. Time was spent on how to ride the best line through the section with plenty of practice runs, then in reverse. The format this time was a 4 round mini trials where the parents took on the scoring. Improvements were very noticeable from the beginning of the year

The VIC AMA Winter Series is now well underway with the completion of Round 3 at the fantastic property in Winchelsea.

It was a great turnout with 49 enthusiastic riders who experienced a variety of challenging sections. The conditions were perfect, it was a bit chilly early on but the rain held off all day allowing us to make the most of the well set sections.

A special mention goes out to the land owner for making this property available to us again, and thanks to all those that put in a solid weekend of work to get this event off the ground, your efforts are greatly appreciated.

We look forward to seeing you all at our next event.

We had 14 kids for the OMCC Junior Enthusiasts Trials Squad training on Saturday. Weather looked pretty bad first thing but the weather gods smiled and not a drop for the training session. There was lots of mud and wheel spinning in the tricky conditions!

Practice included tight turns, balance on planks and wheelie practice. Dan Stanthorpe won the longest Static balance. His tyres appeared to be glued in the mud. Mason Brady was a clear winner in the slow race and Fletcher Theile did a massive skid to take out the longest skid competition

 Zachary did a demo to show the kids his awesome skills and what they can aspire to.
