Are you talking about the ones that you can actually ride?

We have a pretty active scene here in Townsville with a bloody good set up.

Not that I do it personally but it is really popular.

A couple of photos would be nice.  :thumb   We certainly have a diverse set of interests and skills here on the Forum, with the common thread being our passion for motorcycling.

This is the best I could find. http://www.melbourneplaygrounds.com.au/melbourneplaygrounds-info.php?id=27050

There's also one southern suburbs of Adelaide http://mvrail.org.au/ which we've seen run when we lived down that way. If you check out the photo section you might get an idea of the Euroa Railway

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott
