Gopher Dunes Photo Gallery

After a four-week break the series picked up again at Gopher Dunes. The roughest track on the circuit didn't disappoint, with some great racing in the MX1 class. Allison Kennedy was lucky enough to trade toddler for camera for Round 5 and here are some of her favourite pics.
