Yes Steve
Its Very Hard work to get the condefence of the Land Owner to let you use His Land and even Harder to
get him to let 60 or more mad old blokes on old Bike to ride around for two day and camp a Night .
Some time in making that agreement they ask a few thing of us .
and One of the thing at Yass is NO Glass Bottles so you better buy your Water in Cans for this one ...
-
Very grateful to land owners for allowing us to use their property . Thankyou
I went around camp area with land owner , late Sunday arvo , when all had departed from last weekends' event & he was very pleased to see no rubbish left behind .
Well done to all those who were camping there . :)
Please respect the land owners wishes at these events.
Regards ,
Steve

Dennis is dead right about the land owners and I'm pleased too to see putty left clean

Some Little technical bits as well if you have low 1st gear Happy days.
But if you are using MotorCross gearing you mite need to gear in Down a tooth or two .

I did not use this photo because of the Smoke from the Old Postie Bike ..
I had to turn it of and wait for smoke to clear ..
Sad to say this will be the last Vinduro for Old Postie Bike .
I think it may go to Back Postie Bike Heaven that is the place behind Birko Shed .
To be replaced By a Honda CT 200 ...

Well, that DOES look nice alright! Can't wait, did the final prep on the IT175 today and it's good to go. Woohoo, could be the first vinduro for me this year (and second ride on the IT since Canowindra last year...)
Can you get there from Canberra by turning off at Murrumbateman, or do you need to go out to Yass and back?
PS just noticed that after Dennis posted these pics, this topic had 555 views as at 10.44PM 28 June!
-
Looking fantastic!
I can't wait to get the TS 250X on to those trails!

Nope. The TS is a fresh build and has only competed at 2015 Beaufort, however at Beaufort a prang 30k in dislodged the radiator cap and I had to use my drinking water to top up and return to parc ferme via bitumen roads. Have ridden Mark's IT175 at the past couple of Cookas and Jugiong.
The TS pictured is nicer than mine!
-
Graeme, you can go that way, but it is quicker and easier to go almost to Yass and turn right.
Small short cut from Canberra is to take the Yass exit, then turn right at the roundabout and cross back over the Barton. This puts you on Yass Valley Way, and plonks you out onto the Hume Hwy a bit further east.
It cuts a few minutes/kilometres out of the trip.
-
Thanks for the tip Nathan.
-
I can't make the Yass vinduro so I need somebody to take the club quickshade down there. Anyone from Sydney west or mountains going? I can drop it off to you. The Tshirts will be there all weekend to purchase.

Ok Mark , Phil and Nathan
I Know that Mark , Phil and Nathan have EMailed VTR .. Greg has Told Me that ..
Have you Been sent the Map to the Yass Vinduro ??? Yes / No
If YES you have than all is Good .
If NO Then I will look in to it..
Nathan you are a member and should have Quoted your name and Member Number and indicated if you need a Event Licence .
Now Mark and Phil I know you both Are Not Member and That is Fine . Two thing you can do that is Join VTR on the Day
or pay the NON Member Fee ..
All Paper work will Be at Yass Vinduro ..WE do not send out the member ship form But all the Club rule are in the VTR Club page on this Forum and you should read them ...
VTR is a Low Fuss Club...
Come along on the Day fill in some Paper work Pay some Money and RIDE YOUR OLD BIKE and just have FUN
We are not like other Clubs with all the paper work and pre entry form and stuff and wanting you to send us your money and
to pay before in advance.
We trust you when you say that you are 95% sure that you can make it then that Fine that all we need to know.
We also need to know if you need a Event Licence or if you have a current Motorcycling Australia competition licence .
If you cant Make at the last Minute some time shit happen and you cant go that that fine too We Trust You .
We Need you to Email us we do not want you to email us and say its Tom Jone hear and 3 of my mates are coming too and we need 4 event licences .
What we Need you and your 3 mates to all email us ..and if one of them dose not have a email then just tell us that .
Why are we like this its is because if we are going to buy a Event Licence for you and your 3 mates and then all of your 3 mates email us and they say that they are coming and are bring 3 mates We then buy too many Event Licences.
So Please bear with us we are not IT gu Roo and and all of this stuff is new to Greg , Mick and Me (a Truck Driver , Mechanic and a Landscaper ) . not 1 IT bloke amongst .. and we are working on the Email out side next .

Looks like someone is going to miss out 8 sleeps to go
Not me.
I have been working my arse off on the bikes to get ready for this one. Finally have the CR going - sort of. The damn think wouldn't start cold unless I poured fuel in the plughole and once going it wouldn't idle however when warm it went like a scalded cat. Pulled the carby again tonight and think I have found the problem so fingers crossed I will have it sorted. Either way I will bring it along so I can play with it some more. I Also gave the XL500s its first run today since putting it back together and although it goes hard and seems to have heaps of compression the smoke trail it left behind looked like something from a bond movie ;D so I think I will leave it at home for the time being and bring the DT400 and Husky along instead.
-
Excited :) since the wife will be on the mighty XR 200 have to bring the unfinished DR, sorry in advance to those that are going to overtake me, hope the smoke from this thing does not hurt your eyes too much.

Just back from Yass working Bee..
A bit cold in the Morning but it was warmer than Canberra and it turns into a Beauty of a day
short sleeve shirt by 10 am but after 5 o'clock you could fell the temp drop..
Grate day of marking out 16 kms is a long way when you are clearing and arrow and the odd falling tree remove.
Over 200 Arrow on the Loop you should Not get Lost ..
We all think its A Grate loop and a good mix with the fire trails .
Some Open stuff and then singe trail and back onto a Fire trail ETC.
two small water crossing on the Hard Loop .
The Land Oner has been hard at work for us and spent the Day cutting fire wood for us.
so it will be nice and warm around a LARGE FIRE and Good Wood like Canowindra Ged Box and Yellow Box
I think a few More Red Face Vinduro Rider around the Fire at Yass..
Dont forget NO Glass Bottle Cans Beverages Only Please .
The Owner has Clydesdale Houses and Dose Not want Broken Bottle any were on his Land . So Please Respect This ..
Don't for Get HOT Shower and Toilets on site .
Movie Saturday Night and The Raffles/ Prizes Thanks to PRIME 8 Please Support the People that support US .
This is going to be a good test run for many of the VTR Members that will be heading down to Harrow .
Remember at Canowindra we Showed the Harrow DVD
anyhow see ya at Yass
How Many Sleeps is it NOW

Steve That's not nice calling Ted that.
He's not old, he may look like it but he's not dead yet.
As for the other name,it goes without saying as he is a Manly supporter.
-
All sounds great Dennis, looking forward to it. Glad it was warm there today, it was freezing here in Tuggeranong. -6 overnight and I think we managed to get to 3 or so late in the arvo. Who'd have thought going to Yass would get away from the cold?
Anyway, bring it on, about time I got out for a trail ride this year.
-
My wife said it was very cold in Canberra too ..
Yass is a 100 kms North for your Home and mine so don't be NOT BE FOOLED this time Graeme like you and many others was with Nimitbell Vinduro earlier this year.
every One though it was Pissing down Rain like the rest of N.S.W and A.C.T ..and it was Dry and sunny ..
So Graeme bring lots and lots of Fuel and don't wait on the front veranda wait for TwisterShout to pick you up ...
-
In Canberra yesterday was cold , l was trying to get work done on the bikes and just gave up so lots of work after work ::)
-
Dont remind me of Nimmitabel dennis!! :( :(
-
Nimmatabel #1 and Putty a very close #2 IMO. Both absolutely fantastic
Sorry Graeme ;D

I won't be at Yass but Dennis will be hounding you boys to snap up the remaining shirts. Buy a size or two bigger and put them over your jumper around the fire. All the money from the tshirts goes to YOUR club which comes back to us all in the long run.
Enjoy the weekend and ride safe
-
I am nearly packed and hope to get there sometime early afternoon tomorrow.
The CR will be coming along but it remains to be seen if it runs or not. Might need to tap into the vast Knowledge base that will be present on the weekend for some advice on what to do with it. And at least I will still have the Husky and the DT to fall back on.
See ya tomorrow. ;)
-
Me too all Packed and ready .
A Bit of a slow trip as I am bringing to the water for the HOT Shower

Take your woollies if you plan to camp over Saturday night - it's looking plenty cold, maybe even snow!

VTR's luck with the weather gods held again today with the rain holding off for the whole day. The rain on Friday left the track in primo condition, lovely winding single track through loamy soil, twisting in and out of trees and creek beds. The only tricky bit was the creek section which was a bit wet and chewed up as the day went on. I'm not sure how many turned up but it looked like a healthy turnout, maybe 50 riders? Plenty of lovely old enduro iron to check out including a VERY nice MR Honda.
Sadly I forgot my camera so no photos to share, hopefully someone else will have some to show later. I am a big pussy and didn't stay overnight, but I suspect it might be pretty cold if the weather forecasts can be believed.
Overall, another big thumbs up for a very enjoyable vintage enduro event. I'm sure those that stayed on will have another fun day tomorrow.

Much fun was had.

Well What a Week End ..
What a Vinduro
In My a pinion the Best Vinduro That I have been involved in .
The BEST VINDURO Under 30km Ever ...Ever Ever...And the to top it off the weather on Saturday was fantastic for
this type of riding at around 15.8 km long .
It was Very Good mix of every thing Fire trails , welsh Trails , Dry and wet Creek crossing the Bet single trails .
off camber , Up hills and down Hills it had every Thing you wanted and needed in a Vinduro was 5 start the bar now is set so High I am worried if we can match it ...
Te weather .. Friday 6.00am Raining when i left Canberra around 9.00am Heavy rain .
got to Yass Heavy rain set up camp in the rain now wet as a shag .
just as I am set up and putt the kettle on it stops that night the Stars come out as we sit around a Nice Big Fire .
and By the Way the Property Owner had cut up about a 4 tonne of wood for us How good of a Bloke is Mick .
Saturday morning a Bit cool and the Bike came rolling in ..
and as I said cool but good for riding in the Loop time was around 25 to 30 Min long .
The loop was nice and easy you took your time and got hard the faster you when with lots to test you ..
and then buy backing off a bit it became easy a gain . its hard to explain you had to ride it to under stand ..
Saturday arvo late we watched two big thunder storms go by .
one to the North and one to the south of Us Happy Days Night
Prize and awards when well it was after the Photo and Movies of the Day and just and the Wet 2013 Harrow movie finish the Sky's open just as at Harrow that year and it rained ALL Night ..
Sunday and at 8.45 the Rider and dressed and ready to go . Your Mad now some may think its True ..
and they road until the Rain and cold wind turned up now with the Loop closed every one pack up and left very Happy ..
A Very BIG THANK YOU to Alan R , Bill V, Ekka S , Bill C But a Special Thank You the The Property Owner Mick
Who work endless and tireless help us so we could have Fun Weekend Thank You Mick ...

Thank you VTR! Vinducro Penrite Team will be back next year!

Definitely a huge thank you to the VTR crew and the property owner. A shame the weather limited the riding on Sunday but no-one could complain about Saturday. I only managed 4 laps all up - by then I had worn out my wrists on some of those rocky downhills. But that works out to maybe 1.5-2 hours of fun riding. More than I usually manage at a race day...
Dennis is right - the track was a very nice mix. At casual pace it was great, nothing hard and some nice little tight sections as well as some open bits. At speed the switchbacks and the slippery green lanes were fun yet tricky.
I'd have been happier if the IT hadn't stopped several times every lap but I'll try to get that sorted one of these days. The cold weather wasn't really an issue, once underway the tight bits made you work up a sweat and kept you nice and toasty.
The bike didn't even get all that dirty really, apart from the muddy creek section the trails were simply loamy (on Saturday that is) - a quick tub today and she looks like new again.
-
Well that was another great event from the VTR crew and what a great loop, it really did have it all and it just got better as the day went on. I really loved the variety and in particular the open fire trails and reversed MX track that finished the loop off and we were very lucky with the weather, I reckon it was nowhere near as cold as the forecast was predicting. ;D
I gave all 3 bikes a good run on the Saturday with 2 laps on the CR, 3 on the 510 and 2 on the DT and even managed another lap this morning in the rain on the old DT400 and had a ball. It just clawed it's way up the muddy hills like a tractor.
Only took a few pics as i was to busy riding

Just Like we did with the Owner of the Canowindra property Peter we gave Mick the Property Owner of Yass a Ride of a Old Bike ..we went to the Top of the Line in old Bikes and I think He Like It..
Well He did do a Few Laps on the KTM 350Gs 4 Banger ....
And Now we Got Peter from Camowindra Buying a Yamaha IT 250 I wonder if we can Mick on a Old Bike too soon ..
and By the way Peter from canowindra is one of the Riders in one of the 2 VTR teams heading down to Harow this Year .

Yeah, I think he was getting a bit hot and decided to take a dip to cool off.
Unfortunately I was a bit slow parking the husky while trying to dig my camera out so I missed getting a shot of him while he was lying in the pond. It must have been rather cold as he seemed pretty eager to get out of it. :)

Hey Dennis, a couple of people have mentioned a big hill on the course. I never did that, did I miss a section? I saw a big hill with a track up it, but the arrows went past it so I never tried it. I thought I'd done all the sections both hard and easy, but maybe not?

Here are 23 minutes of helmet cam footage from Saturday. I hope you enjoy it!

Graeme sum did not read the Arrows and turned Left in one place of the Loop witch was not in the loop
and Should have Read the the Arrows and Turned to the Right ..
But later in the Loop there was a Hill on the Red arrow but you may have Followed the Blue
and if you did you would have missed it ..
-
Yeah I saw the steep hill to the left. I was nearly going to give it a shot but someone came past and went the right way so I dutifully followed. I did all the harder sections, but still don't remember any hills that stood out more than any others.
Doesn't matter, what I did do was great fun and that's all that counts.

Once again, the VTR Club have excelled themselves with a well organised, great week end of fun & socialising. The property had everything you could want in the making of an awesome trail ride, from single lane to fast trails, hills, rocks & slippery bits, whether you went the blue or the red arrows. The loop was clearly marked, making it easy to follow thanks to the Bills, Dennis, Allan, Ekka & of course Mick. As always top social night on Friday, followed by perfect riding weather Saturday, holding off until the raffle was over. Sunday a little damper.
It was good to see some more new faces who have decided to join in on the fun, it's addictive!
Now, we wait in anticipation for the next one.

Good to see lots of old Heaven members attend these rides. Riders that are over the competition, the pressure, the flagging, the politics, riders that just want to ride their old bikes with no bullshit cheating rules getting in the way. Riders like Kel and Narelle, Brett and Marjolaine and plenty more. Good on you'se.
From what I understand, this club, under Dennis, Greg and Mick's guidance has quadrupled its membership in less than 12 months. Anybody in business would love those figures. These guys have found the perfect formula for having no stress fun. M.A. are looking at our club very closely and are extremely happy and behind us 100%.
Congratulations to each and every member for playing your part and getting vTr off and running so strongly. Great effort guys and gals. ;D

Wow what a ride!
Saturday was just awsome riding weather, I found the temp was just right for taking on the taxing hard options. In fact the day was so good for riding that it more than made up for what blew in on Sunday.
I must admit that the image I had built up of the track leading up to this event was way off. Where I was expecting mostly cranky rock it was nice and loamy, with sweeping climbs and descents, rolling ups and downs along creek beds, muddy holes, and nice spots to find the top of the box with some well warned choke points along the way, straddling ridges and cuting up and down through scrubby gullies. A long loop that was quite time consuming to get around.
Enough thanks cant go to Bill, Al', Ecka, Bill and landowner Mick, this track was absolutely awsome and I honestly cant wait to get back to this venue again.
The wonderful class of tracks produced this year are a tribute to the selfless hard work and true experience of our VTR members who have put in so much effort each weekend to carve out the brilliant quality of courses that we have been so fortunate to ride, we have been to so many different places and areas all with so different and individual terrains this year. Its been great.

I'll make an effort to take more photos at Canowindra (VTR Vinduro Canowindra N.S.W 2 Day Vinduro 8th & 9th August 2015)

I noticed that as well. He seemed to have a rather professional looking camera. There was also a young bloke taking pics on the MX track at one point. I stopped to get an action shot of Don on one of the muddy hill climbs on Sunday morning but he eluded me by going a different way.
