Picking Winners
« on: July 28, 2015, 11:17:39 pm »
I have had a good couple of weeks,like a hamster on a hamster wheel that just won't stop.We have been busting our asses getting ready for our trailride(NSTR2015)only to get flooded out,on Thursday morning,and having to cancel the event.We had 28,000 contacts thru social media,and only a few turned up,all the roads were closed by Friday morning.We have held 2 wakes,so we have managed to reduce the food and beer stocks a bit.

I have been talking to a mate,Dave,who I have been riding with since 1975,reminiscing about all the things that could have been,like this years Trailride.He reckoned my decision to trade my YZ250B on a PE250, was like swapping a Porsche 911,for a Datsun 180B,I thought my Poseidon shares should pick up soon,and cover the losses,and when Ralph Sarich sends over the Orbital Engine for the 180B,I am going to pick up the Beta video recorders,and the 8track players,I have in the missile silo,they should be worth heaps.
I am convinced that my atomic powered Leyland P76 is a sure winner,I just have to workout how to carry the 4 tonne of lead shielding.Dave is pretty smart,he thinks Russell Coight is responsible for e=mc2,as proven when he posted a photo of his boots drying in the de mister vents in his truck(a proven RC theorum)on Thursday,during the deluge that washed out our ride.I have just had the stitches out of my finger, that got between the 10 m two way aerial(that we use at the ride) and the ute,and Sean's broken foot and ribs are healing,at least Dubbo didn't call and tell us there were no more Ambulances left in Northern NSW.

What most people don't know is that it NEVER rains at North Star.
I personally blame the coal miners.

Keep the P76 N22 or sell me the motor [ if it's the V8 ] .
Best motor of that era.

My Profile photo was taken in 1981,at the Gundy Track,Dave is on the Kawasaki,on my right,one of the few times I beat him,and he really did own a baby shit green P76,and sold it,and he reckons I am the dumb one!
