I'm told the ost classic nats the weekend following HBBB (Broadford) to be held Ravenswood is almost across the line, so there's a VMX holiday over the Easter period.

AGM at VMXWA club last night, I asked about holding holding of the Classic Nats, it is still on the books with some areas to be sorted out with the BSA club.  The lightweight Club has also put its hand up if BSA unable to hold it.  So still in limbo, but they are trying to do something

It's all in their hands, I'm just an interested member.  But I think the time for the bid is running out fast hopefully they'll get it in quick

nup - doesn't work that way - shite track will equal disaster - especially since we have some awesome tracks available that tick all the requirement boxes around.

There is no point talking about it here.  Do what the club in Victoria did RE the Post Classic Champs.  Put in an application from the Club.

If enough clubs in WA want it to occur get together and put in an application.

And if there is support from a club or better still several clubs in Victoria for Barrabool then stop procrastinating and do it.

The correct timeframe for putting in bids (expressions of interest) for Australian Championship has passed.  MA usually likes to have them in early in the year, over 12 months before so the Commissions can make a recommendation at their meetings each year in April/May.  So bids for 2016 are due early next year.  So really whoever puts a late one in now for 2015 unless, it is totally ridiculous should get it.

Having it at Barrabool makes sense, but unless the club running there want to run it, someone else has to.  The ideal scenario would be for several Victorian Classic MX clubs to get together and run it.  Does Motorcycling Vic have a Classic MX Committee/Sub Committee?  Maybe they could co-ordinate it.

Having a month of motorsport does sound good in theory but how many riders could afford to stay away for a month.  For most it is cheaper to fly in for each meeting.

The costs from over the west wouldn't change, flights, container.  It would only be the ccomodation and what the hell you would do in between weekends.  Would be a good way for me to start divorce proceeding!!!lol  It is a nice thought though.  maybe upgrade the caravan

If no one wants to put there hand up, SA would have it again, things need to happen soon tho.

Exactly!!!!

If there is enough interest from any state just get together and put in an application.

My only suggestion is the track should be suitable for "Old Farts on Old Bikes"

Don't wait too long!!!!  Christmas is coming up at a million miles an hour and if something isn't done soon, a decision may not be made until January/February 2015.
