Post by: popeye on July 11, 2010, 11:34:43 pm

Hello fellow sidecar friends, what a great weekend both dirt track and Mx we had some new people try both riding and swinging and from what l saw they had a great time,  congrats to all that rode especially Dave and Helen , Adam and Vaughn, and poor John Broad had the biggest enishiation of all jumping on the Shoreline motorcycles rocket owned by Robin Ricketts a wasp with a GS1000 motor , Simon, Johns father has riding Mx outfits a few times in the last 2 years but his 16 year old son John had never been on one, they got the hole shot and l hate think what was going through Johns mind but it was unreal to watch, more of you guys have got to come and have a go....... also congrats to Brett and Janice for having a go..........

Yeah ya did thank me for crashing, glad you had a good time, there was a bit of conversation about the new track but l think it was better than we all thought it was going to be, also forgot to mention that Adam the bloke that rode with Vaughn on number 993 it was his first ride ever on a sidecar and did a fantastic job and  had a ball, l might not get my passenger back, his daughter is better looking anyway...........LOL...
