There are a number of clubs that run Motocross meetings. ECSSC (East Cornwall Schoolboy Scramble Club) and CSSC are the main ones in Cornwall that we use. Tracks are located at:
Landrake, Saltash
Camelford, Cornwall
Fraddon, Cornwall
Newton Ferrers, Devon
Tavistock, Devon
The one thing that is particularly lacking is practice tracks or ground. If anybody has any spare waste land in or around these areas that could be used as a practice track, please let me know.
Race meetings are held normally every two to three weeks.
