The Millfarm scramble is on this weekend in downtown Wandering - just 11/2 hours south of Perth. This is the VMX club of WA's big event on the calendar, and this year it is going to be the biggest. There's 120 riders entered, with 180 bikes (all pre' 75) - this also includes 10 sidecars.
Special guests will be Jaroslav Falta and Jiri Starec from Czechoslovakia, as well as Bill Davis from the USA. There is also a few guys coming over from the east, including Peter Drakeford, to add to the atmosphere and make this an even bigger event. The track is laid out once a year at the Ferguson family's Mill Farm through gently undulating paddocks, flush with bright green grass clinging to a loamy top soil. Perfect roost country.
The weekend weather is going to be perfect, so if you have nothing planned and want to get that CZ shirt signed by a legend, then come on down. There is no charge for spectator entry as it is just a club run. If you want a map to the track just go to our website at
www.vmxwa.com and go to tracks section. Racing will start as soon as the fog lifts but there will be plenty to see prior to the start. Bring your camera and snap some of the best pre '75 machinery on show. There will be a canteen on site (selling food at 70's prices) as well as toilets. So you'll be able to watch some good vintage racing, have a feed, a drink and then relieve yourself before the cruise home.
See you there!
