Carlton bank should be awesome.
I'm hoping to head up soon to check out the work that Ed & co are doing, they are very capable of delivering the goods.
One word of advice to anyone entering carlton bank though is to pack a kite for in case it's windy  ;D

can you ride this track outside of racing or is it private and isnt the old one open to ride.
I'v only heard rumours and i was just wanting to get some facts.

cheers
robbie.
