Go to the Goanna Tracks Facebook page and have a look at what 1 out of state idiot has done for the quad community at Goanna Tracks after all the work and relationship building with the owners that Kevin Wiliams and a few NSW quad riders have done. Whoever you are you have undone all the work and tarnished Kevin Williams reputation as his son Jake a quad racer himself.
I just can't believe this has happened.

Pete, you are going to have to be more specific. Either I am at the wrong page or I can't find what you are talking about.

From Goanna Tracks response to the comments they don't want quads there anyway.

I wouldn't give them any of my quad money! You only need to go a couple of k's north of there and ride the Pilliga scrub for free.

Copied and Pasted from Facebook:

Goanna Tracks Coonabarabran
ON ANOTHER NOTE: At no time have we advertised QUAD bike riding @ Goanna Tracks, Not on Our Website Or Facebook, we have only mentioned that it may be something in the future!!!! We are always building more & more as we go, but it takes time & money. The only time Quads were allowed was this years MX Nationals, this post is just for one person in particular, wish I knew your name, cause it would be name & shame, being abusive & rude on the phone just cause you came from Queensland won't get you any favours @ Goanna Tracks Pal!!!
Do your homework first mate, should've checked before you came, it's been posted on facebook non stop for the past 2 weeks that we wouldn't be open this weekend!!!

the discussion that was generated from this action is very critical of quads and their riders in general. It is similar to a recent facebook barrage against us from a club over this way. The fact is, there IS a certain amount of tension between the disciplines, and that's not just limited to quads v solos, as sidecars get their fair share of flack too. It's a bit like the Holden Ford rivalry to an extent, whereby people defend their preferred version, and sometimes it gets a little out of hand. This, unfortunately, has been in existance for generations, and will take several generations to remove, if at all possible. Best we find a way to manage the situation to both our best advantage, and to minimize conflict. Good luck

All the comments were at quad riders in general and Goanna Tracks comment #16 approved of them. Again, they're not getting any of my money.

I remember riding Stockton on my 600 Grizzly (years ago) and came across a 2 wheeler broken down. I offered to tow him to Lavis Lane, but a couple of times didn't bother looking back and when I eventually did saw the 2 wheeler and him being dragged in the sand. Hilarious!

2 wheelers are community minded as well.
