Ok. Expanding on my earlier idea of having ride days similar to the format for Classic Dirt, how about we have "OzVMX day"! We all get together one day a year in a different state with some bigs sticks, an ambulance or three and really get stuck in. The survivors could all go riding. :P
-
Do you mean a jousting competition like the days of old only on iron horse's
-
what about moto paint ball 2 teams lotsa bush make to the finish line with out being shot
-
The back end of the year is pretty busy .What about a season opener early in the year
-
That's the best idea I have heard for a long time 8)

How much is he asking for a set of jousting sticks?
tell him he's dreaming.

Oh well spotted! One for the pool room..........

How about getting some interest in our sport by having a pre-season pony express race where you and 2 mates or other interested parties race as a team. Heres how it could work :
1st race, you start-do 3 laps then change to your 1st mate who does 3 laps and then he changes to mate No.2 and done
2nd race, mate No.1 starts then No.2 after 3 laps then you finish after his 3 laps.
3rd race, mate No.2 starts then you after 3 laps then No.1 finishes after your 3 laps.
That should get a few more bums on seats both riding and spectating. ;D

They had something very similar at the last Conandale meet up in Sunny Qld but only one lap each , with the rider wearing an arm band that was swapped each lap.
Very entertaining :) :) :) :) all round

Hey 414,
Don't for a minute think I am trying to hijack your great idea. But, I am not sure that another BIG weekend is really what we need, but your idea would make a great 'theme' for next years CD5.
Combining the 2 would make both events all the stronger.
Back to you.

I just think it'd be good if a lot of the guys whom get on here could get together as a group to talk crap, run against each other and belt each other with cycle parts, cans etc. Not a big affair. You must admit that it'd be interested to meet some of these blokes for real........
-
I know!!! The annual Great VMX swapmeet, one whole weekend of I'll swap my rusting pile for your rusting pile ;)
-
I don't know about a BIG meeting, but I have often thought about an OzVMX weekend at one of the riding parks near here like Lochmaree. You can hire the place for a weekend if you can round up 30 or so people I think.
Alternatively, the ACT club is resurrecting their Pony Express track. If that happens we could maybe think about an OzVMX Pony Express event - a low key fun type thing. I was thinking about that for late this year, but too many other events on. Maybe early next year though?
Trouble is the calendar is always so full!
-
The way you guys are talking I better get my act together and get a working VMX ::) :P ;) :D
Hmmmm. Lochmaree + Cappra 360 + good company + a camp out + a beer or three 8)
I hope you are 'talking yourselves in to it' because you are talking me in to it. ;D
-
Yeah yeah yeah. That's what I'm talkin' about Graeme. Just small, low key...... 8) As for a date. Well sometimes it's like giving up shaggin' goats. No time ever seems right but you know ya gotta do it.........
-
The Bultaco Rally is on in early November at Braidwood. That's about as low key and as fun as you can get.
Why don't a few of the lads come along to that one?
There is plenty of riding, bench racing - and of course a few brewskies.
Believe me, its a hell of a lot of fun!
What d'ya reckon?
Mark.

What even the Honda riding Nancy boys,
Noel
-
I have a few Hondas myself... So yes ;)
-
So... you're saying that we can drag our non-Bultacos along to the Bultaco Rally and generally have a good time? That does sound like fun alright. Who's up for that?
By the way Mark, feel free to add the details to the calendar.

I think my Monties would be outnumbered by the break-away's. They'd go down fighting though! I reckon I'd be up for that!
-
Um anyone can have my piles for free :-\ Yeah old age has unfortunately rendered my pile of piles jokes "out the back door" sorry that was a bleedin rough..................... ;)

What about a car load of Mexicans and a trailer full of YZs would they accepted into the fold or treated like someone who stepped in a rottwieler turd ?.
