Track details

MotocrossHardpackFastTechnical

Soil when dry

Dry hardpack turns hard, slick and dusty - little grip reserve, especially on corner exit.

Soil after rain

After rain a greasy film forms on the hard base - very slippery until the surface dries.

Setup tendencyMore stableMore agile

Drumclog Moto Parc sits on Southalls Farm off the A71 near Strathaven in South Lanarkshire and counts among Scotland's best venues. Alongside the main track there is a separate kids' course, and riding happens at weekends - whether the gate opens is decided at short notice by the operator, based on the forecast. The circuit is described as having pronounced berms, fast jumps and significant elevation changes; directories call the ground soft while we file it as hardpack, so expect a surface that changes a lot after rain. Opening according to the weather is not a weakness of the operation, it is the honest version. Never fix a trip to Scotland to a single day - keep a spare weekend, or you will stand at the gate and the forecast will have won. What unsettles riders most on a fast track: the bike goes vague and restless in the fast sweeping corners. Top of our cause list is a sag balance that is off - set race sag properly before you touch compression or rebound.
