Even if we do get into McVicars, I dont imagine we will ever be "let loose"... The worst thing that could happen is that all sorts of tracks get built with no plans. There's heaps of building going on in vic park anyways if you are that keen!

i went to my 1st track build day with gravity Canterbury a wee while ago its a good way to get to know people and its only fair if you ride the tracks to give a helping hand fixing them it also really helps you appreciate about not riding in the wet seeing how much work goes in to fixing them. plus there free sausages at the end!!
