That was a Gr8 Vid, The ABC guy was a crack up with the names Joel & Roger hahaaa.

The best days of bike riding and racing, people have 2 many options these days and its not as exciting for them.

Is The VERi Hopetoun layout like this ? minus the competitiveness of course ;)

the veri event starts at the local lake / caravan park and you ride right through town (quietly in case mr p is not playing golf....) then you head out of town for a few k's to  the fuel dump, loop start / finish then out into the scrub...check out
