WE ARE OPEN!!!
Updated 29/7/10
Great news this week!
Dear Customers,
Emu Creek Extreme Retreat is now open again... as the only approved and insured private venue of its kind in Northern NSW. Don't risk yourselves or the industry, at any venue that is not approved by their council or insured for motorbike riding and 4x4 driving.
Council voted in Emu Creek’s favour and we will now be open for business again but only for day trippers for the moment. Anyone looking to stay will need to seek camping and accommodation off the property. We have some options in our alternate accommodation page.
Over the next couple of months, and with your help through working bee's, we will be trying to meet fire brigade standards for camping and accommodation, then on site overnight stays will also be approved and operational. We are sorry for any inconvenience and ask for your patience and help while we get back up to speed.
We are heavily in debt from the closure but its all looking up from here.
IMPORTANT:- Emu Creeks protagonists have promised to send people, posing as customers, onto the site to try and document any breaches of our conditions and attempt to have us closed again. This includes video taping and noise testing. We all need to be on our guard in the future for anyone breeching our conditions and ask that all of you help enforce the rules with anybody you see taking liberties. We could be ‘set-up’ by these protagonists, so we all need to be on our guard for any persons bringing disrepute to the park or breaking the rules. These people will be ejected for life, promptly.
AS A CONDITION OF ENTRY AND THE MAIN CONDITIONS TO BE AWARE OF FOR THE PARK TO CONTINUE:-
• EVERYONE must be signed in at the office before riding or driving at the park. NO exceptions.
• NO recreational motors to be operated before 8am and after 7pm ( or after dark ). For this reason we will be locking our gates outside these times and ask you to wait patiently at the gate until we open it at 7.40 am and lock it again after 7.30 pm. Do not start your machines outside operating times. 8am-7pm
• NEVER take a unregistered vehicle outside the front gate or property boundary. The pink loop outside the front gate is a restricted area and may only be used by people who have the strict approval from Blair, who will eject you, if found in this area without his approval. Registered Vehicles found breaking the road rules on the local roads will be reported to police and we will support the police in any action they choose, REMEMBER some neighbours are trying to make an example out of you, if they catch you, the park could be closed again.
• The Forestry lease North of Emu Creek is strictly off limits to all motorised vehicles, it is our sound buffer zone, anyone caught riding bikes or not given approval by Blair to be there, will be ejected from the park.
• MAKE SURE your bikes muffler is adequate and is able to meet the industry approved 94Db mark. We will be noise testing ( so will our neighbours) and we may disallow the use of any machine over that limit. Be aware many Chinese pit bikes do not meet those standards and often produce the most noise. Muffler repacking can be done by most reputable Bike Stores. Be aware when purchasing new exhaust systems; Do they meets 94DB. This is the industry standard and will come into play where ever you go riding. Do not remove the tailpipe restrictors, if you have, you had better find it and put it back in or carry it with you. If your bike is not fast or powerful enough, either buy a bigger bike or twist the throttle around harder and earlier. Other devices such as duel ignition timing will provide similar results to noisy exhausts.
• CONTAIN AND DISPOSE of your rubbish responsibly, littering in any way is not acceptable. Please make sure if you are taking your rubbish home with you that it is not going to end up on the side of the roads. Blue Bins are available for you to leave your rubbish here, at a cost to cover responsible disposal. $20
• NO PETS allowed unless kept under effective control within 200m of the office. Absolutely no pets outside the 200m office zone. If you want to bring a pet you will need to book to be in the main campground for your day trips. Do not bring them to the MX Tracks.
• ABSOLUTELY no firearms, fireworks, archery, crossbows or throwing of explosive products into fires.
There will be more updates as they come to hand.
Thank you for your time to read this, your support and continuing to responsibly represent your park, and to everyone who has stuck by us and helped to Emu to open again.
Hope to see you all soon
Blair, Melly and Thomas
