Well what a fantastic weekend, you boy's down south know how to throw on the weather ;), track was also top class and great to meet a top bunch of guys. Hopefully we can spread the word up this way and get more people to travel.

Many thanks to Fernando and the crew for makings us welcome, we will sure re-pay the favour if you are up our way.

Thanks also to Noel for keeping us informed

Mick great holeshot that one mate get that framed

That track is a classic! fast, open and makes for great racing

It also goes to prove that VMX races are the same Australia wide, all great blokes! many thanks again to all we come across in making the weekend a great event.

Also Magoo haven't you been told to slow down at your age!! you must have been to the Holeshot school for over 50's fast riding :D ;D

Shane

It was great to have you and Brett down for the weekend Shane and I'm glad you had a good time. That photo of you two above, you need to get that one framed, it's a ripper. The whole weekend went off an absolute treat. The weather was perfect, track was unreal but I'm glad I weas riding a bike with suspension, it looked like hard work on the old bikes. It would certainly be the fastest meeting I've been to in memory but was safe as well. A couple of guys came to grief with Nifty doing his knee in during his Saturday afternoon cartwheel session, and another of the lads knocked himself silly on Sunday and was being treated for concussion, hope he's ok. The meeting was really well run, terriffic numbers of riders in most classes and everyone went home with a smile on their face and sore muscles from too much riding. The free riding is always really popular too.
Thanks Dennis and the lads, really well done.

Cracker weekend, big thanks to everyone who helped make it happen.

Points of note:

1. Snowy getting second in the pre-70 race, despite riding all but three corners of the race without a seat.
2. Everyone's (good natured) ragging on Rosco. Karma is a wonderful thing.  :D
3. Nev thumping himself into the ground, and then having his RT1 finish the job for him. Tough bastard he is.
4. Good vibes everywhere - wandering past campsites and always finding someone wanting to have a chat.
5. Lots of new faces - some new to the sport, some not, but they were there and enjoying it.
6. My little KDX is a great bike - not really an MXer, but just one of those really nice bikes to ride. I was faster on it than the YZ125L, simply ecause its so easy to get along with.
7. Rob S' 360 Husky. Without a doubt, THE most intimidating bike I've ridden, although I loved every minute of it. And hey, got me a trophy on it, despite never using more than half throttle! Thanks again, Rob.

So yeah, top weekend. :)

There I was all ready to leave at 6 AM, sweetie reluctantly in the passenger seat, esky in the boot and a smile on my face. Then I discovered the flat tyre on the Jag >:( It all got too hard then so we canned it and went back to bed. Sorry to those I said I'd meet up with.

I'm glad the meeting went off well, it's one of the better events on the calendar and deserves its success. Who won the Roy East,John Hine, GE and Ray Ryan trophies? Seeing Klub Kevlar originally donated all except the Ray trophy I'm sorry none of us were there.
Title: Re: Photos from Crawford River Classic
Post by: Rosco400 on May 18, 2009, 12:13:48 pm
Roy East - Mark Austin on his lime yellow Bultaco
John Hine - Noel Lewis on the orange CZ
Geoff Eldridge - Greg Bilton (I Think first names Greg, Sorry if I have it wrong ::)) can somebody correct me
Ray Ryan - Sean Hardman on YZ, couldnt find a color for the YZ but this would be Sean's favorite color

They are all deserved winners who had to work hard, nice gesture for Mark Austin to hand his free subscription to VMX back to be raffled and great t shirt prints donated by Mark for the raffle, everybody would want one of those shirts Mark :D

Congratulations to the Heaven Committee for there tireless efforts to bring this meeting together, best track surface for the grass I have ridden on there, exceptionally well run event ;)

Firko,
There were a few KK boys (GOB's) there. Trev Lucas was there punting around on your old CZ with his young bloke on his Husky 250 MAG, good to see them back into it.

Bottom 2 are Snowy76 riding the Maico, reckons it was more comfortable after the seat fell off and nuts were sucking down the airbox ;D :o

Even a devoutly renowned KTM rider took the little 250 Maico for a spin but he swore to me he seeks to stay anonimous :-X

Have you a  closer up photo of numbr 18 there Andrew just to debate the color of his bike,

Right rider, wrong bike.

Mark brought along his yellow pre-65 Bully (he's also in the last pic in your sequence of Rossco/Snowy pics), and his red/silver pre-75 one (along with a couple of newer Hondas).

#60 (yellow Maico) is Narelle Moore.

Great photos, keep 'em coming. :)

I have to say that ride of Snowy's  to second place in the John Hine pre '70 race
on the Maico without a seat was a good effort.

Thats just lovely Mick, I would expect better than that from a respected elder, now the old blokes are taking the Piss :o :D, at least it was good to see you peddling around the OSSA, The young fella was lapping you on the AJS by my recollection :-[

Hey auscobul. I've been trying to improve my photography and looked at some pics a mate got professionally taken.

All had shutter speed 1/1600s or faster and ISO400 or higher.

I ran my camera in auto focus with image stabiliser on and 1/1600 s shutter with ISO400

I also had my 55-250 zoom on, the 55 was a bit long for closer shots like inside of berm.

Nathan - I'm going out to dinner, I'll post up later
