Title: Heaven Rd4 - Bathurst
Post by: HeavenVMX on June 10, 2015, 09:01:01 am
 2015 is turning into the VMX year from hell for NSW riders.

Unfortunately our meeting set down for 27/28 June at Cessnock has been cancelled.

The Cessnock Club notified in the last few days of May that due to circumstances completely beyond their control they were unable to continue with our circuit hire booking. They were very apologetic but there was nothing they are we could do. We will return to Cessnock ASAP.

The committee has searched through every possibility imaginable to secure a circuit for the same weekend but being the first weekend of the school holidays everywhere has events organised. In total we tried 11 venues without success.

It has been very disappointing and frustrating for us :( :-\ but we have basically ran out of options. We are sorry for calling it later than ideal but we tried every avenue before making the decision.

We encourage our members to support the Nepean Charity event if they would like a bit of Dirt Track action or join Carl and others who are making their way to Louee for the weekend.

Hold Everything  8) ;D!!!!

We have, this very minute received word from Panarama (Bathurst) club that we may be able to use their Mt Panarama track (No not Conrod Straight ::) ). Their Club Vice President is our usual Steward at Canowindra meeting each year and is very keen to get such a great bunch of people to their track 8) ;D

They need to check with the local Council Sports group but all is looking good - FINALLY :)

Birko I contacted the club and I think you need to assume that there are no showers. The club is checking if there are showers at the macphilamy Park area owned by the Council that we can use. Sorry mate

Geezus guys.
I'll see if I can organise a load of fire wood. I'll even spring for it ;)

May even have some good news about the showers but still need to confirm.

We are visiting THE Mountain!! the church of Brock, resting place of a Queensland Falcon against a rock :P Home of the Nissan Juggernauts and sadly the current home of the TAXI race ::) What more could you ask ;D ;D

Well, that was excellent!
Big thanks to everyone that made it happen. :)

Best MX track I've ridden on, I reckon. All the jumps were do-able, even on short travel bikes - and didn't punish you if you came up short. The little whoops things were a bit silly and the chicane was too one-line, but the rest of it was brilliant.

Post by: HeavenVMX on June 29, 2015, 12:12:26 pm
Brilliant track, Brilliant weather, what a location!!!

Even the Saturday afternnon off to look at the Motor Racing Museum and visit the local coffee shops ;D was excellent.

Couple of injuries so wish those guys a speedy recovery.

YES!!! All of the usual disclaimers apply, but I can think of a lot of worse places for the 2016 PCMXNs to be held.

I would like to thank all the flaggies, all the officials, special mention to Steve who spent the whole day on the starting line, the lap scorers who spend the whole day doing it, Scrivo who did a whole bunch of last minute work to get the event going,  Kenneth who carts all the merchandise to all the meetings, the helpers who give us a hand to pack up all the club stuff and Noel who year after year tallies the point score

There are only a limited number of pictures on the Public Heaven VMX page, however there are literally hundreds on the members page.

Heaven VMX Members Page: https://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/HeavenVMX/?fref=nf (https://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/HeavenVMX/?fref=nf)

I have 'advised' the Heaven photographer to throw them on the public page from now on.  :P I got the bird.... :-[

I am told you don't need a facebook account to view the pics on the public page.

Hope that helps.
