Wonderful to see the sidecars at Whitsunday on the weekend. Definately the most watched races on the card. I take my hat off to the competitors for their bravery(madness?). The meeting always brings out something different each year, The Japanese in 2007, the Kamakazes in 2008. Many thanks for your attendance, hope you can come next year as well. Brilliant!!!

Yes we took out best outfit at Saturday's show and shine. Little bit of rain Saturday and very humid. Numbers down a bit from last year, but met up with some nice people. Rain cleared up for Sunday's ride day and the track was fantastic. Nice and flowing on a grassy loamy surface. No mud or dust. Too bad no outfits came up from Brissy as they missed a good weekend. Only two outfits. Matt's and our EML's. We still put on a show and gave some keen hopeful's a swing and a ride. Even got some people from further north interested in getting involved in sidecar cross. Hopefully get a full field for next year.
Cheers. D&H ;D

Thanks for flying the flag up there Dave & Helen. sounds like it was a good circuit and sorry we couldn't make it but just too much happening this year.
-
I would like to give credit to Helen for getting back in the chair after breaking her collar bone at Toowoomba. she went well and didn't fall off untill we came to a stop. ;D I would also like to thank Joel Elliott for swinging for me and allowing me to go at a reasonable pace. He will make a very good passenger in the future and he is a good rider aswell. Hope Bernie allows him to continue progressing in the sidecar class. By the time he is old enough to compete, he will be mixing with the front runners. I will post some pics when they become available.

A couple of great shots and the young fella's lookin' good. We need to show him some shots of some moderns-that'll get him fired up!!!
Your outfit looks fantastic Mattocks, and I guess Bernie was hiding behind the blunt end of that lens. Did she get any static shots for the mag?
-
Yes. Bernie did a photo shoot on my front lawn the other day.
-
Any of Matts at the same time per chance??
-
Not sure EML. You may need to contact her. I'll find out what I can.
