Yikes!
You'd never see that in those places run by typical nanny state governments. Surprised we are even allowed to ride motorcycles.

It doesn't look all that bad. The 6in metal post on the ground before the river section is kind of sketchy, and the logs mixed with concrete seating is a bit questionable, but most of it is just stairs. You'd be surprised how easy it is to ride up\down stairs on a moto. We used to do that a lot when our group was going through its sumo phase.

SDNerd has occasionally ridden his 990 up and down short stair runs - NBD ... Supermotos - pfffffft ...

Shit - that looks pretty damn hazardous. Near-zero margin for error, and even though speeds aren't high, there is no get-off on that "circuit" that wouldn't involve some pain. Pretty certain I wouldn't be able to clear most of those log setups, and all the crap that lines the route one can get snagged on look far worse than any ruts I've inadvertently gotten myself into.

Not for me, but great to see people willing to take it on. Sadly, it'd never be allowed here in nanny-land.

My main problem is that it is not much of a race neither. Once past the start bit first turn left there is no space to overtake anywhere.
To be honest I find the concept a bit dumb. Only good for gopro footage not even good as a spectator.
