My bro in law has a Scott Squarell with a bath tub on the side-I'll see if he wants to rent it out. We could race it and then rent it to the campers as a bath house :D :D

I havent seen anything come through officially re the whereabouts or protocol for the games.  There is some information about 'registering' at the games village - do we need to do that, or just rock up on the Saturday morning ?

Thanks,

You don't have to be, but it helps.

Well it's all over untill 2012.Lucky the weather held and it seemed a good time had by all.Thanks to BMCC & QVMX who loaned equipment and special thanks to Vandy & Doug Aichison who stepped up to help.Congratulations to the riders who entered into the spirit of a fun event and showed determination to have a good time in spite of a few hiccups. We had ages 30-78 ,girls & blokes ,skill levels from National Enduro Champ to first timers ,bikes from late 1950s AJS to latest KTM ,and a great week-end enjoyed.Makes all the effort worthwhile.

Ricky Madden, who cleaned up the Vinduro on his rapid PE175 got injured at work today, his crane truck touched an 11,000 volt overhead cable and he got burnt. I dont know how bad but maybe Schultzy might know, I'm sure everybody on here sends their best wishes for a speedy recovery.

He's in the burns unit in Brisbane.  He has burns to his hands, back and foot.  He's talking but there keeping a watch on his organs.
As bad as it is, He is very lucky to be here.  He's a tough bugger. 

He is being inducted into the MQ Enduro hall of fame tonight at the MQ awards night.

Seeing the way he rode at the Masters Games I think he and his bike must of touched the 11000V cable before the race he was that fast. I wish him a speedy recovery and if he recovers as quick as he rides it won't be long.
