    FRIDAY POIKIES OPEN DAY:
    All four new trails will be open to the public all weekend, so we encourage those coming down for the long weekend to head out there on Friday to check them out. Whilst you can 4x4 shuttle two-thirds of the way up the hill it isn’t feasible to shuttle for an event here now. Don’t despair, we are looking at solutions to this as we plan Poikies stage 2, so this will become a DH shuttled venue.


    NO STATE PUMP TRACK CHAMPIONSHIPS?:
    We apologise for all those who were looking forward to an action packed festival weekend but we are no longer hosting the 2025 WA Pump Track championships. Unfortunately, we have been let down by our external event coordinator and hosting the event is no longer possible.


    SATURDAY NIGHT PUMP & JUMP:
    While there is no official event or racing on Saturday night we understand that there will be lots of people heading there on Saturday night to ride both the pump track and the dirt jumps under lights. The lights will operate until 9pm every evening.
