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 tendencyHarder against bottomingMore agile

Pembrey MX is the motocross facility at Pembrey Race Circuit in Carmarthenshire on the West Wales coast. According to a report by MotoHead magazine it opened in June 2022 and comprises two tracks. It is laid out as a training venue: track days and training schools are offered for youth and adult riders. The report describes the ground as well draining loamy sandy soil, characteristic of this coastal region. It gives no track lengths, and no builder or designer either. Well draining ground mostly means the venue comes back into use faster after rain than a heavy track does; our records add the traits jumps and technical. What the ground does not tell you is when riding actually happens - practice times and fees are not publicly documented for this facility. So the one thing to do before travelling is organisational: settle the date, the sign-on and the access directly with the operator before you load the bike.
