Well I for one am so glad that I made the effort to Cookardinia.
Matcho Mick gave me the tip, make it to a Maccas, sleep in their car parking, wake up, use their rest room, then breakfast and Coffee up :)
great idea 8) refreshed as, then cruised on in to Holbrook for supply's, I was ridding a high, still am. Great weekend.
At the Holbrook fuel Bowser, a bloke next to me with an old bike on a trailer introduced himself. Stewart. Great bloke.
To be honest I was still day dreaming about the Irish Redhead who just sold me Beer at the Holbrook pub ::) ::) ::)
-
Uuumh Friday night hey :o ::)
I meant to say
Next Vinduro,,, Gloucester OCTOBER 25/26
-
I'm keen for a ride . :)

Patience grasshopper.

-
Calling all Robots , calling all robots 8)
Riders of Auto's , are we going to Gloucester 8)
-
The lads have sent me some pics of the camp area and the drinking den with fire going. Looks choice. Very green just like Cookardinia.
-
Count me in Captain. Gadget I will need a jersey make sure you can do more than one lap on your cuckoo clock this time
-
Will need to spend some quality time in the shed, I need to fit new shoes to the cuckoo, maybe red heels with little bows?
I'll write it down in the activity calendar! :)
-
This will be one of the coolest venues ever,,,,,,
This is the camp site, right on the edge of the Gloucester river 8) pretty cool hey,,

Riders of Auto's , are we going to Gloucester 8)
I am pretty sure all marks are welcome, even Husqvabots,,
but being the kind sort of a bloke that I am ;D
I will give you a heads up,,
The loops are on the other side of the river from the camp site,,
So, there is a 4" deep river crossing to access the other side, and a six inch deep river crossing to return 8) 8)
So if you are bringing bots, dip them in copious amounts of silastic first ;D ::)
-
Patience grasshopper.
May be some pics this weekend ;D
Apparently you are famous in Gloucester Ted 8) stuffed if I know how,,
But apparently the boys have been busy making a sign on corrigatted iron called "Ted's ****" ;D 8)
-
The boys have also kindly donated the Maygo to start the fire. Way to go lads.
-
Hey Ted, there was one of those Maygo's at the Classic RR titles today, looked like a 490 motor, was running around the back of the field, might have been the sweep bike... :)
-
The boys have also kindly donated the Maygo to start the fire. Way to go lads.
Oh that's just plain cruel Teddles,
Lets face it, there is more chance of you getting that KX500 full tap in top hole than a Maico breaking down.
Make sure you don't go to sleep on Saturday night, and don't forget to fit that F&*king generator with a life jacket.
-
I hear you are wearing a life jacket on a certain section Micky. ;D

Arrh so the cats out of the bag mate ;D
I have about fifteen life jackets mate, four should do you, as long as you remember to let go of the bike if you miss the turn ;D ;D ;D

But with the out of action blown tyre fiasco and all,,,well I thought I may-as -well have a sip..
Thank god for the thre largies,

Can I camp Friday night?
-
Can I camp Friday night?
Yes Mick, arrival Friday and camping OK, but I believe gates closing at 8pm
It will be pitch black, Friday the 24th is a New moon, No Moon
There is a fifteen foot drop on one side of the camp site access entry, easily visible in daylight,
but as a precaution the property owners don't want first time users negotiating it in the dark,
hence the gates shutting at 8.
-
Mick D If you're going to this event perhaps I can drop off your prize from Cooka to Ted.
Ted are you going to Gloucester?
Also I have Nathan Seniors front wheel that could be left with Ted.
Nathan are you going to Gloucester?
-
I'll be going Adam. Leaving early Friday morning.
-
Good news on both accounts, thanks blokes.
Hey Adam, I have to say the feeling of anticipation rises up the closer you get to these events, aways does :)
One cool thing was you stepping forward upon entry and shaking hands while I was still in the car,
a welcome is a cool thing, thanks.
The Hume Hwy is an easy leisurely cruise home at 105 K's, especially when your still grinning, Great vibe.
See you all next year.
-
Thanks for making the 700kms haul to Cooka Mick. We felt there should be a prize for furthest travelled. A big effort thankyou.
Glad you had a great time and hope you make it next year.
Thanks to MCA Auburn you won a very large UFO gearbag.
I'll work something out with Ted as I pretty much go past his house on the way home.
-
By the time I get it to Mick it will be a kiddies backpack ;D

Just spoke to Dennis. His computer is down, that's why he is not amping this up.
There will be a show of restored exotic VMX bikes on display from Prime8Racing so get your mates to come as well to check them out.
I've seen the course and it has something for everybody all set against the beautiful scenery this part of the country has to offer. Plenty of photo opportunities and lookouts on this loop. Free camping on the river. Firewood is cut. They don't get any better than this.
Queenslands Premier club QVMX have kindly given me some Tshirts to hand out. Win one of these and there's your entry fee paid ;D

-
Well YOU did tell me to keep it up the top of the page Dennis. You know, when you're computer was broken.....wink wink
-
Numbers sound good, huge effort there fellas, hope the event is a great success.
-
Entered now so I guess I can post ;D
With the proposed inclusion of the Pre 90 class to be voted on at Lakes round for Heaven VMX i wonder if that flows on to Heaven Vinduro. Would be good if it did. Disc brakes on most bikes then. Disc brakes and water= much more fun ;D
Heading up to give Stephen a hand next week.
Get your entries In. Don't miss out. The lads have been working hard to get it right and make it enjoyable for all.
-
yes, I've entered also.
Looking forward to some nice trails....no dust - fingers crossed.
Ah just some safety advice - please clear all logs and tree roots etc with in 500m of the arrowed trail so that Mr Baker can safely ride the 'Welsh' line :) And can you mention something about T-boning your mates not being mandatory at riders briefing, please.
There seems to be some negative comment about euro bikes floating about......and whilst some brands don't seem as reliable as others I don't believe it fair to pick on the KTM clan. After all they hang out together and don't seem to bother anyone unless they break down on single track :0
-
The Mattighofen mob appear to congregate under the anonymity of nightfall and perform a strange ritual on their machinery using metal tools and headlamps. Approach with caution at this time as they always have sentry posted to warn of impending sarcasm. While this phenonhom is quite common in Euro lodgings I have NEVER witnessed it in a Japanese camp, day or night.
-
"I have NEVER witnessed it in a Japanese camp, day or night"
thats probably because most of the time you are snugged up in the trailer with the lecky blanky on , riding that big green scooter thingy you ride
-
Ted don't drag your feet this time it makes it hard to look for alternate lines!
-
;D
-
I beleive there are 4 automatic Husqvarnas and riders entered already. 8)
-
You cant ride all 4 at once lend one to me ;D
-
There seems to be some negative comment about euro bikes floating about...
I wouldn't be too concerned Wayne .........just Teds' usual banter .
(Although some may perceive his comments as a breach of his #1 commandment ) :D

" Can I camp Friday night?
Quote from Mick D;
Yes Mick, arrival Friday and camping OK, but I believe gates closing at 8pm
It will be pitch black, Friday the 24th is a New moon, No Moon
There is a fifteen foot drop on one side of the camp site access entry, easily visible in daylight,
but as a precaution the property owners don't want first time users negotiating it in the dark,
hence the gates shutting at 8."
is there an altenative overnight camp area for late arrivals?
-
It is up to the land owners and the neighbouring properties that have welcomed us for the weekend.
It is a dairy farming community who are to bed early and up early.
It may be possible on Friday night Noel for those who are considerate, to be arriving late past the neighbor's residence, after a long journey.
I posted notification of 8pm gate closure upon request from the land owners.
I supplied the owner with a new role of fluro bundding to tape off and mark out the the drop off, which is as obvious as nuts on a bull during daylight.
They are also concerned about anyone returning much later from an evening of in town drinking.
They do not want anyone that has been drinking, to be driving on their property or the gravel access road past their neighbors. And that's fair enough too, safety for all is the name of the game. They want this to be a safe fun weekend for all.
There will be plenty of room around the communal campfire for those wishing to relax a beer or two,,,or three ;D
So bring a chair.
The land land owner also said the gate would be back open at day break.
-
I will arrange for alternate camping for those that arrive late it will be only a short distance from the main camp . We are entering main campsite via Mid Coast Water Property which is the towns water supply station they would prefer people not to be going thru all night or me leaving their gates unlocked . For those that arrive after dark follow Irrawang Road and I will put up alternate camp site sign which will be a paddock where you can camp the night , the gates TO MAIN CAMP will be re-opened at day break where you can make your way to camp. Being this is the first event and people unfamiliar with the surroundings I would prefer we run with gates being shut on dark , cheers and look forward to seeing you next weekend. Relfy
-
Appears I have no idea of what is going on. Not sure if the flyer is correct or the map. Someone may like to clarify.
-
Whats new....lol... :)....Ted for President.....haha.....enjoy your trailride. I'm off to Echo Valley MOTOCROSS track.....give Ted a clip around the ears when you see him and make sure the bum shouts you all and gives you the presents I sent [he's probably got them on gumtree]. ;) I'll be waiting for a team shot.
-
Well Noel, it appears you will be staying in the suite at Relf Manor with the services of 40 bikini clad virgins at your beck and call. Any chance you can pick me up ;D

I'm off to Echo Valley MOTOCROSS track.....give Ted a clip around the ears when you see him and make sure the bum shouts you all and gives you the presents I sent [he's probably got them on gumtree]. ;) I'll be waiting for a team shot.
Echo Valley you say. Enjoy your one and a half day sign on procedure. Make sure you have a speech therapist on hand so it all goes smoothly. Just remember a X won't cut the mustard. I'm sure it will be a blast.
-
Greg H or Dennis will be along shortly to clarify the details of access, camping etc
Been a bit of wire crossing I'm afraid. Will all be sorted shortly so we are all on the same page, so to speak.
Keep those entries coming

Has anyone got directions yet.

Right into Irrawang Rd at Gloucester. Follow signs. As you will be arriving in daylight hours Friday you will miss out on the bikini girls and also have to drink your own beer ;D

Hoping to be there around 3 , will there be food stall?
-
No but town is just down the road
-
No canteen this time I am afraid Mick total BYO food and beverages this weekend. KISS principle for this event. If this area is as good for Vinduros as we think it will be then looking at expanding for the next one.
As Ted said there is everything within a 10mins drive including a Woolies supermarket, cafes, restuarants, great pubs. Great Oz country town 8)
-
what,no hot showers :o,slumming,stds are slipping,i'm not bring the coffee machine then :(, :P
-
what,no hot showers :o,slumming,stds are slipping,i'm not bring the coffee machine then :(, :P
Umm OK rephrase :-[
Total BYO for food and refreshments
Toilets on site while hot shower few hundred metres away at the showground or swim in the river 10 metres away.
Umm does that justify the coffee machine ;D
::) ::)
-
The Pub for dinner can be a dangerous thing. Best throw in few snags. Cold beer on the river bank around 3 this arvo. looking forward to it.
-
That was a fabulous week-end . Excellent course and the swimming in the river before and after riding was a great bonus.
-
Thanks to Greg, Dennis, Relfy,the lovely girl, who stood in the heat all day punching cards, Bernie and his family, the guys from Primate and anybody ive missed.
Another great weekend 8)

What a great weekend and what a location! Thanks to all those who made it happen. Ill be Back

Many thanks to the Land owner, locals and the heaven crew that made the weekend happen.
Very enjoyable - a nice combination of tight / open / hills / flats to ride on. The rivers to cool off in were a bonus. My apologies to the towns people of Gloucester ;)

And what a great event it was. Big thanks to all the local lads ( who might just have secured some Maxima Oil sponsorship for next year ) for their massive effort and to a most welcoming Relf family who literally threw their property open to us.
Was interesting to see rider numbers at this Vinduro surpass the host clubs last VMX meet of the year, which also included the AGM. In fact Gloucester Vinduro was only a handful short of the fantastic Cookardinia Vinduro a month earlier. Vinduro in NSW is growing very rapidly.
Who would of thought 8)
-
Yes Ted Only 4 short
Looking forward to a Biger and Better year Next year

Yes Steve that would be good to do that to get out before the Heat of the Day.
But we do need time to let the riders turn up and time to do sign in and to all the paper work be for we start ..
we did start on Saturday around 10.30am and the Loop was open to 5.00 pm.
that 6 1/2 hours of riding ...
and On Sunday we started around 8.30 am to 2.oo pm and that 5 1/2 hours of riding.
But by 12 .00 evey one was in the River having a swim ...so we closed the loop early ..
Buy Hay I /we are all way happy to listen and your point is taken in ..
yes it was hot ..
Dennis

What is VTR?
Re: more riding time - you could limit the riders briefing to just 5 min? ;)
Just one more thing.....
-
and the riders could pre enter/pre pay and have a yearly licence!
-
Most would be keen for a Saturday start by 10;30 or a bit earlier
(if riders are keen they should be there & signed on by 10:00 ) Pre entry by most would help too
Maybe ;
Sign on by 10.00 am Saturday
Riders briefing 10:15
Riding by 10:30
(It was after 11;00 by the time we got out on the loop at Gloucester on Saturday )
Great rides , just like to be into it a bit earlier in the day ;)
Regards,
Steve

You could always turn up on the Thursday prior and help cut the loop in, just like a few of us have done on several occasions. Or you could arrow the track. Or you could fill out the paperwork. Or you could be on hand when the toilet guy gets there. Or you could organise the water for the toilets. Etc. There is plenty of riding with any of these jobs.
I really hope you guys appreciate whatever riding time you get.
-
Ok Blokes ....
Hay we are always happy to hear what you have to say ..
and I thank you all for that ..
and Its what came first the Chicken or the egg
Today we are all Time poor and that why Vinduro are Good you do get alot of ride time .
It take a lot of time to get your self to a event like a Vinduro.
Kids sport Browny Points with wife . got Mow the lawns befor you go .Get Time off work ECT.
and it take some one a lot of time to get it ready for you to have FUN at .. .
and when its all done some one need to remove all the arrow roll up all the Bunting
repair any damage reseed grass ECT and return it back to a working farm..
I think every one would love to turn up a week befor the event .
and help but work and Family stop them (but if you have the time please Call me .We do need Help sometimes).
I would Love it if every one turn up and be ready at 7.00 am on saturday .People need time to get to the vinduro it all takes time and Like Nole has said This would make it much Faster on the day
and the riders could pre enter/pre pay and have a yearly licence!
The Paper work dose take up a lot of the time and we Need to make shour its filled in ..Be for we start the Vinduro...
Yes we all would like to get as much riding time as we can .
Riders briefing. Yes it dose some time go on a bit that is true .
we do sometime need to Spell out a few thing That riders Need to know and this Must be done ....
We are a small team and we do the best we can ..
So Yes Please if your are Happy with what we have got ( Vinduro ) and you like it....
Then Please Yes let evey One Know it ..
But on the other hand I/We are listing to what you are telling us ...and we are taking it in...
But hay this is like Life somtime we all need to make a Commumise and so do we all
Dennis
