- When arriving to the track there will be a gate personal to check you in for the day. Memberships are available for the season online, but for day rides you can pay at the gate with Debit/Credit.

The Rider Day Fees are: Peewee (6 years & under) - $5
Kids (7 - 10 years) - $20
Youth (11 - 17 years) - $20
Adult Women's (18 - 60 years) - $20
Adult Men's (18 - 60 years) - $30


Why are Women's Day Fees and Memberships less then Men's? 
One of the goals at the park is to encourage women to ride.  On average, every year we have less women than men riders, and the average number of times a woman rides throughout the year is less than the average males.  Our goal year over year is to continuously increase the number of women riding at the park and increase the frequency in which they ride.  One of the ways we have chosen to help encourage women to ride is by providing a reduced rate. 

 

- When arriving to the track, you'll pass through the gates and there is big parking areas to pit for the day.

- There are multiple porta-potties on site for washrooms.

- Make sure to bring water and snacks, there are no concessions at the track.

- Large spectating areas for every track.

This facility is great for all levels and ages of riders. There’s the Extreme Beginner area if you're learning how to ride, this would be a GREEN rated track. It is set up as an oval, wide lanes, with a couple small features to get comfortable rolling over jumps. There is a small Pee Wee Track for small 50cc bikes, this would also be a GREEN rated track. It is a little tighter then the Extreme Beginner area since it is meant for small 50cc bikes, there are small features to get comfortable on rolling jumps.
