Bashing Spots in Perth + pics

[citrus]

I posted a similar thread on AUSRC.COM and thought it would be a good idea to replicate here.

I'm suggesting that others post up pictures of your favourite bashing spots with descriptions and if you don't mind sharing post the address and directions of said spot.

I've collected a few over the last few weeks check em out.

Suburb: Noranda / Beechboro

Location: End of Della road, Noranda
Directions: Even though this is right beside Tonkin hwy you need to drive down Benara road and turn into Della road and drive to the end. Unfortunately you have to walk the rest of this road past the gate, about 100 metres and then turn round the bend to your right and its all before you. Im dubbing this place Lightning Creek Nitro Park (if you go you'll understand the 'lightning' part).



Description: Old landfill site, huge open area with a variety or surfaces, smaller jumps and mounds scattered about. You could easily make numerous more jumps and obstacles with all the junk lying around.

Pros: Extremely large space, quiet and isolated, seems to be a public space so no restrictions on access.

Cons: Bit of a walk once parked, lots of old housebricks and rusted metal lying around, tad on the sandy side.

you could really make up a bunch of different tracks and jumps in this spot

Near reid and tonkin hey....you hear about all the rocks and shit that get thrown from bridges on reid? Does that happen near that area? I've had to bail a couple times when random fckwits have crossed my path while bashing.

That said, it looks like a freakin awesome area for some MTs!

[citrus]

Suburb: Wilson

Location: At the end of Kent street, on your right before the sports club and weir. Behind the council depot.
Directions: Off Maning road turn right into Fleming ave and then right onto Kent st, park in the carpark and walk back towards the depot.

Description: Home made style BMX track, largeish jumps, burms on firm track.

Pros: Good size track, basketball hoop near by if you want to shoot some hoops!

Cons: I think its frequented by the local kids, the track gravel is fairly rough on bodies if you roll or flip.

[citrus]

Suburb: Ascot Waters

Location: Top of the hill at the end of Tidewater drive
Directions: Off Resolution drive turn into Tidewater drive and follow to the end and up the hill to the carpark, immediately to your left or a bit further over to your right are some good spots.


Description: Two areas here - first one is small but does offer some interesting jumps and tracks you can follow, even back down the hill is some areas you could try but its getting a bit close to the water for my liking. Other area is further away but has some good size jumps in the form of wood chip piles, and plenty of open area with a variety of surfaces.

Pros: Good size area, reasonably quiet, nice views

Cons: Possibly temporary, I'm guessing these areas will be built on soon, limited number of jumps mostly flat areas, prone to water logged areas.

Suburb: South Guildford

Location: On the corner of Gt Eastern Hwy Bypass and Kalamunda road.

Directions: Go down either the Gt Eastern Highway bypass or Kalamunda road and find one of the side streets (Barker rd, Highman st) and turn in there.


Description: Monster Jumps, looks like one of those temp tracks they setup for the Xtreme games. There is also some smaller jumps around.

Pros: Nicely setup circuit.

Cons: Big f**k off jumps only for the brave! Not sure how many people use this spot, looks like a few dirt bikes get in there even though the signs ban them.



e107_files/public/119_sgmap.jpg

Suburb: Wembley

Location: Bold Park(i think), Behind the school, Powis street freeway exit.

Directions: Pretty easy, heading north on the Mitchell Freeway get off at the Powis street exit and turn left, take the very first road into the carpark and walk over to the area behind the school.


Description: Read about this spot on another post, mainly flat area but good for just tearing around. not much in the way of jumps etc. To be honest my friend and I had more fun smashing and throwing the pig melons that were scattered around (childish I know)!

Pros: Easy to get to, shielded from the main road by a big pile of dirt. Pig melons!!

Cons: Not much here really just flat dirt, and one medium mound for fun, oh and lots of pig melons.

Pigmelons!

[BALISTC]

Bold Park is right near my house!

Another one, but I havent got pics.

Princeton Estate, Stirling...off Karrinyup Rd.

Hectares and Hectares of open land (where houses havent been built yet), and piles of sand EVERYWHERE...including some massive sand mountains if you got a 1/8 truck and your feeling game..

[Bowling Ball]

That one in South Guildford looks awesome. I know where I wanna go with the Maxx and the T4!!!

BB :D :D

[Dlux]

South guildfords got my name all over it!!! !super !super !super Looks farkin' awes!! I thought bull creek bmx track had the biggest jump (the one off to the side of the course) but THOSE I gotta conquer.

[Aj]

When are you headed out there Dave? I'll come along mate :P

[Dlux]

Don't worry I will and you do the same.

Apparently Bull Creek BMX is now fenced off. Bummer. Anyone live near Bayswater? Someone told me about a council disposal site where they dump road debrit and stuff. He said there were large conc pipes, blue metal rocks, slabs of conc and was accessible to all.

I might go take some pics of Bibra Lake BMX track tomorrow when I head to Rypers.

[Bowling Ball]

Went to the South Guildford area yesterday. Did a crazy 100 G jump into the deck (say 8M of air, thats UP) and landed the Maxx wrong. Wh00ps!

Its all fixed, check the readers rides forum :)

BB :D

[citrus]

Dlux,

yeah I live right near Bayswater, I went searching for this council depot around there but couldn't find anything, got any clues as to where it might be more precisely?

[Dlux]

I think if you're heading towards midland on guilford rd. Just before you reach the tonkin hwy bridge theres some small shops to the left. Then theres a road on the right just after those shops. Best you/I look in the UBD to see if theres an open area around there. But I'm going nigh nighs, it's 11.38pm, I gotta work tomorrow, UBD in my car, which is downstairs, 2 degrees celsius............too hard.

[citrus]

Dlux,

use the technology he he

[Dlux]

You know what, just as I logged off that night and was in the pisser. I thought to myself, "I bet you some smart arse will post a web page with street directory on it". Well, I couldn't be bothered to log back on so like I said...........too hard. See if my friend was right about that place Ado.

[johnnyboy]

yeh that one in guildford is crazy as we have been there the last 2 sundays and have lasted all of about 2 hrs between both days whilst running 3 cars each day lol, there is a bit of water that tends to hang around there but if u can get a good run off the top of the hill doing the 3 jumps is quite awesome. Just watch for the clowns that come down on bikes and think that they own the joint.
As for ascot i was working at the building site there for a bit and it looks like a decent place for a run with the car.. and a bit of a fish there is sum monsters in there i seen em first hand

[citrus]

As for ascot i was working at the building site there for a bit and it looks like a decent place for a run with the car.. and a bit of a fish there is sum monsters in there i seen em first hand



I reckon you might be right about those fish last time I went to ascot there was some 'slack jaw yokels' camping out on the side of the river, fishing rods in the water and a fire by the river, barefoot kids running around, cartons of EB, the old Falcon station wagon with the boot open stereo playing (probbaly some acdc or the angels...)

it was so funny these yokels living it up like it was Australia day right next to all the expesnive waterside yuppie apartments ha ha!!!!!

the fishing rods were the icing though!

[opAsx]

were they wearing stubbies and blue bonds singlets?

freezing cold here in wagin and one of the local guys was wearing the stubbies, blue singlet, flannel shirt and ugh boots.

he was the epitome of cool :P

[citrus]

Suburb: Bayswater

Location: Just of Guildford road on Slade street, very easy to spot.

Directions: Heading east on Guildford orad before you get to the Tonkin Hwy overpass, turn right into Slade street, and it is immediately on your right, can't miss it.

Description: Council depot type of spot lots, of clear area, a couple of jumps great big pile of ashphalt in the middle of it.

Pros: Easy access from the street, but still a quiet spot.

Cons: Not much to do after a few runs around the place, bit flat. Im not entirely sure if your allowed to be in that spot either.

[slylux]

i tryed doubling that jump in above pic , and the one near the berm ( northly direction i think ).. almost made it .. but landed off to the side , because of the run-up angle .. THAT IS A WICKED BASHING SPOT i must say !! .. takes lots of spares , cant break stuff if u try silly things .. those jumps kick the buggy up high !!

The bmx track in kewdale/kelmscott is crap, only two good jumps, but u can try the others if u wanna break ur car.

Lesmurdie is the best bmx track so far, quite big and never any1 there. !super

Here's a few places if you wanna get ur big car dirty 2, and go sideways in gravel.

Went to the forest up in Roleystone/ Pickering brook, a few good places

Good old South Gillford....Many a M/T has gone down there...

[Hornet]

I have to agree, these are some pretty big jumps I go there regularly.
This is my first post and i'm not to good with using computers so I can't provide a map, but I think i've found bigger!
Ray Owen Sports Centre
Gladys Road
Lesmurdie

It's a well maintained BMX track with huge banked corners and heaps of jumps about 6-8ft high.

Enjoy!

Thought id get this thread going again..

A few spots i use are the BMX track at Ocean Reef in Mirror Park link below-

http://www.whereis.com/wa/mullaloo/ocean-reef-rd?id=4DDC0E51CCF85

Theres a alright BMX track in landsdale, its in Warradale Park link below-

Also ive been going to the Area between Joondalup drive and Mitchell free-way (big open space) access from Joondalup drive, Honeybush drive area in link below-

http://www.whereis.com/wa/joondalup/honeybush-dr?id=4DDA7B831AD01

Also the BMX track in Quinns Rocks its on Christian Circle link below-

[tyrone77]

There is also a loose clay BMX track where I live in Carramar. Its not bad. Sometimes you may need to bring a shovel to modify what ever jumps you want.

[obzELiTe]

if anyone is looking to do speed runs.

new industrial park off tokin other side of southern river.
straight long industrial area width roads made of smooth black tarmac.
place is empty save for one building and its fully lit up at night as well.

[ringo748]

Are there any permanent rc tracks in perth? if so how do you access them?

[Mash13]

check the bottom section of these forums. WestCoast Model Rally club runs off + onroad, Carine runs offroad and Im pretty sure kwinana rc died. Theres also Perth Radip electric car club who race onroad carpet racing in midland.

[wizzer111]

there is a good little bmx track in joondalup, just on candlewood drv.

[e=mc2]

Once my car is setup I'm going to have a run here
http://www.nearmap.com/?q=@-31.655733,115.717787&ll=-31.655733,115.717787&z=18&t=h&nmd=20100529

As you can see its pretty boring, there's no skate park, bmx track and its small. But its always empty and is great for high speed grass runs. The appealing part is the lack of obsticles for you to hit and the sides of the park are on a 20 degree angle, so its kind of like a mini grass nascar ring. Theres an under cover table and chairs to set up on and plenty of parking bays around the whole park.

The main drawback to this location is its close to houses so nitro may not be an option.

Just been to Lake Gnangara Park

<iframe width="400" height="300" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://www.whereis.com/embed.htm?id=A3A8F74D2A8869"></iframe>

http://www.whereis.com/wa/gnangara/653-alexander-dr?id=A3A8F74D2A8869

to get there head east along Gnangara Road and turn left (north) along Alexander Drive, a few hundred metres up the road theres a parking area and a sign banning all internal combustion vehicles including RC cars, boats and planes.

It does however specify internal combustion so electrics are ok, but no nitros.

The area where the lake was is flat sand and you can do some great high speed runs or mark a track with cones (traffic cones.... Damn hippies) There are some small dunes to jump off for fun with soft sand around so you won't break anything.

I'll probably head out that way again sunday morning.
