Had a fantastic weekend! ;D

Many thanks to the organisers.

The entire track was great but the grass track section was awsome!

There's some photos over on the VMX Magazine facebook page.

Picked up a very bad cold, must have been something in that port after all (Dennis, it's all your fault).

Ken

wicked trap that Ken,(Dennis & his port  ;)),i was amazed you made it back up the hill to your camp :D
yeah top track,big thanks to all for organising ,the companys that donated prizes,the weekend was a cracker!,tad worrying was the snowmans uncharacteristic departure 1st up sat morn,(something about it being too cold had me tad concerned for the weekend),but all good,no rain,tad windy at times,bloody sun came out briefly sunday morn,slight miscalculations with widened foot peg on the ossa meant every time i stalled, had to unbolt l/h peg, restart,balance bike against my helmet(kneeling down) & rebolt on,ride away,sure had me concentrating on the tight stuff through the tree lines,thought i was pretty "retro",till i spotted Ted?,on his bully 125 Lobito,(bitd belstaff jacket,jeans against my belstaff pants  ::)),did more laps than me too,bloody typical bully riders :D,does anyone else think a ltr a lap was excessive?,i arrived back after last lap with no fuel left,cut it fine!,plug looked good?,cheers,thanks again to all,. :P
oops,nearly forgot,trailer rego label on the hill going out

Amazing track and a well organised event, definitely worth making the effort to getting to

Home early had a slide on the grass track... one sore knee and a ripped off sidestand mount pulled my weekend up.











Cold!!!

thanks to Dave Hammond for driving 4hrs out of his way to pick up my new thermo nuclear weapon it has been worth the wait, and then driving up from Victoria to come to the event.

Jeez, he looks after you.
The only time he goes 4 hrs out of his way for me is to run me over :o

Funny to see Dangerous Dave gets his pic up there as well. Don't tell him I said so, but he always does "look" fast and has been the poster boy for Harrow twice I think.  :D
Nice to see the pics, though. Looks like a top event.
I'd love to have been there..........  :-\

That was so much fun....was that a Maico or a WMD that flew past...followed by a pesky PE, a bumble bee and an IT

It looks like a wide angle lens ;D
