So Dan, after your comeback at Mr VMX from a 12mth no racing bludge, you're all practised up and keen for the extra 2 x 15 minute motos. 
I knew you were tough.

Yeah Macca, I gotta make the most of the opportunities that I get to ride/race now, so the more track time the better. The young bloke is right into his soccer now so not sure how much track time I will get next year.
While the 10 min + 1 lap moto's at Mr VMX seemed long compared to what we are used to, it was good. The Lakes track won't be as hard on the body either ( or the bike) .

The Heaven GP (2 x 15min +1) has really attracted some interest with entries now exceeding the 40 rider grid 8) Therefore there will now be two events so no one misses out 8)

Possibly called the :P
GP of the Hoary - Pre78 and older Pre85 riders
GP of the Apogee - Younger Pre85 riders
 ::)
YES I love the Thesaurus  ;D ;D  :D :D

Don't forget to email or text the club if you want to purchase the baked dinner on the Saturday evening of the meeting

This the last Heaven meeting of the year! 4 whole months before the next one :o :o

The big sprinklers were on last night, not to much of a drenching though. Overcast this morning. By start of play tomorrow conditions should be perfect for a great weekend of racing/ riding and refreshments.

Thanks for the photos Greg, the committee appreciate your help and that of Glenn's, Fernando, Greg H, Bill and others i probably have forgotten.
It is great how you guys volunteer your time to make sure the weekend goes smoothly.
Congratulations to the winners of each class. The final pointscore for the year will be available soon so you can check to see how you placed in your era and class.
Remember to complete the survey and send it back to the secretary as the committee will be meeting soon to discuss next years calendar, locations and dates.
A finally a big thanks to all the competitors and partners who assisted over the year. Each race meeting the same friendly faces volunteer to flag, scrutineer, lap score, 15 second and start each race.

So thanks for 2012 and look forward to 2013, about 19 weeks to go, before we drop the gate on a new year.

And the winner is
