Wildmoor Racing Track open to Quad Bikes |
|
 I spoke to the owner of the Wildmoor Racing track today and he confirmed that they are open to Quad Bikes on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, between 12.00 midday and 4.00pm. The Wildmoor Track in the Midlands has undergone significant changes over the past few weeks and has a completely new look. The track is now fully taped and marked with catch fencing at various sections and is graded daily. The layout is the best it has ever been and due to the tracks popularity, it has extended opening days to accomodate customers and give some flexibility of choice throughout the week.

Yamaha Rhino Side by Side Suspension |
|
March 31, 2009 - The Consumer Product Safety Commission's (CPSC) call today for repairs and suspension of operations of Yamaha Rhino off-road recreational vehicles drew immediate praise from a group of safety advocates who less than a month ago, sent the agency a comprehensive analysis detailing the Rhino's hazards.
The CPSC's action is directed at fixing rollover-related safety defects in Rhino 450, 660, and 700 models. The defects are among those highlighted in the analysis, entitled "Citizen Report on UTV Vehicle Hazards." Yamaha advises that all use of the Rhino 450, 660, and 700 models be suspended until the repairs are made.
Today's action is "CPSC at its best," said Clarence Ditlow, the director of the Center for Auto Safety. "Hopefully this means that the CPSC intends to act vigorously in the future to lessen the designed-in hazards of ATV and UTV-type off-road vehicles."
