The Mount - Preparing for the Big Race, 2008

Well it was a beautiful spring day today, so I thought I'd use the great weather to do a few laps of the Mount (Mt Panorama) and see how the preparations are going for this year's Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000. Over the past two weeks crews have been working on constructing the spectator seating, erecting numerous marquees, repainting the signage and advertsing on the various concrete walls around the circuit, readying the camping areas, renewing various road surfaces, re-sewing the track edges and grooming the track's run-off areas. With two weeks to go, the track is starting to look good for the race weekend from the 9 - 12 October.

I rode the track a few times in both directions. Hope you enjoy the view :)
