Who's going to Moto Mayhem
« on: February 03, 2008, 07:39:13 PM »
Moto Mayhem is 3 weeks away so who looks like riding? I've sent my entry away and I know there are a few of the boys going. Brads coming from Queensland and I know of a few Viccos coming up. It should be a blast I reckon. Maybe even a Saturday night barbie at Magoo Central, my shout.

So Snowy, you're going? What about young Dennis? I have been thinking of it, but there are a lot of races on around the same time and not sure if I can swing the time. But at $50 it's cheap enough, and we'd be on the video! Very tempting...

Magoo looks like another couple of Queenslanders are coming down. Myself and a mate will be making the trip, Sat night barbie at your place sounds like the go.

Half tempted in mind but body is saying no due to lack of riding of late, am i reading right that each race is 30 minutes, so whos riding what, only got 77 maico going at the moment, you riding the husky or the cr snowy, would need someone to have a play with around the track seeing Magoo and the fast guys are coming, speaking of the track, does anyone know if it will be vintage friendly, cant seem to find any info on the track layout

30 minute moto? There wouldn't be anyone left on the track by the time the chequered flag fell! I hope there is a bunch of you NSW guys riding otherwise it's not worth making the trip from Qld.

F$%K Rosco, 30 minute moto`s ???? , I like Noels interpretation of the race format. Taking the Husky and the Honda, send your entry in.

You're right, it is a pretty poor turn-out - but then again, lots of (non-VMX) classes have minimal fields too. Based on what I've read/heard from last year, it deserves more support.

While I am kicking myself a bit now, I didn't make the effort to find the money or the time largely because I was completely bewildered by the programme.
Specifically, I got the impression that all of the old bikes were in together, meaning that I'd only get one ride. Then I thought that maybe I could take one of my 'modern' enduro bikes up to make the trip worthwhile, but it was too difficult working out whether there'd be time conflicts, and I got the impression that they wouldn't want a nuffie like me out there for the enduro cross.

Woulda been fun racing Noel for the wooden spoon.
The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.

It is a shame that there haven't been more entries, but as we've seen with Vintage you really have to start pushing an event months before. I think this is probably the reason for the poor turnout as it wasn't clear what was happening as recently as a couple of weeks ago.

I've been told by the organisers too that there will be no practice on Saturday as the track is still being built. Racing will be on Sunday only using the same track as the MX classes. Also, given the low entries, some races may be combined. Hopefully this won't affect anyone racing two classes.

If anyone is still thinking about entering, go to it as they will still accept entries. You might cop a late entry fee tho...

Looks like they've got TV coverage as well, too bad the Vintage side of things won't have much to show.

Just in case #41 looks in here,
contrary to the current rider listing on the Mayhem site,
and seeing as they have had to combine classes
I have elected to ride my pre 75 bike in the feature race ( event 2 )and my pre78 bike in the 3 support races

cheers
