Thanks for the offer Brad. After doing the sums with airfares etc. (approx $1675 p/p return Bris to New York with Qantas or Emirates), I think that this trip would be best done with a bit of forward planning, a longer holiday (maybe including the Diamond Don's event in Texas) and buying a bike over there to ride . So next year might be the go.
The bucket list for VMX type events continues to grow, with Farleigh VMXDN, Unadilla "Rewind MX" , Diamond Don's, Mid Ohio, Johnny Old NZ and maybe Linkoping, Sweden. Add to that the regular Aussie must do events like Classic Dirt, pre '78 & post '78 Nats and now MR. VMX and you end up with a pretty full wish list .
