Property with dirt bike track

[Blownsilver]

Good afternoon guys, first post here but hear me out.

I recently purchased a property 1/2hour east of edmonton and on the back 40 acres of the land is a professionally built, circuit recognized track. Again I'm not a rider so bear with me but it's got huge jumps banked corners etc. former owner, I don't know his name, but was some kind of a semi pro racer and put a lot of work into it. They hauled 140 loads of clay in to make the turns and jumps etc. now I would like to explore the possibly of a club picking this up and doing something with it before I level it back to pasture. The track is visible on google maps and it's the whole 40 acres. If your a member of a club and have the know how to put the logistics together with insurances etc I'm open to ideas. Please email me at r.crozier@ascenttransport.com and I can set you guys up with a viewing of it and get your take on it. Thanks guys

Would that be near antler lake? Is there a good size hill on the track. If it is that's old timers track that used to organize it. I don't know how to contact, but call cycle works south side and talk to Dennis Hanson in service. He races in the old timers and forsure will know who to get into touch with. There will be lots of guys that will love you for bringing this track back to life!

I also live east of Sherwood park and I would be interested in helping you if you would like to bring the track back? I am not part of a club but would be interesting to see the track. Where about is the track located?

My two mechanics spent 6 hours working it yesterday. Mowing the grass down and some bobcat work, they say the tracks in great shape, faces of the jumps are in good shape etc. I walked it yesterday and it's a pretty impressive track takes the guys awhile to get around it that's for sure. The guys jumping may need some work but they're clearing about a 40ft table top in that picture
