what an absolutely brilliant weekend - except for a few who thought they were racing for sheep stations and came a gutsa - all was great.

The club and organisers really need a huge pat on the back - looking forward to the 20th now  ;D

cheers

Just home from West what a great 4 days thanks to Rossco "The Costume Man" for picking me up and dragging me around WA and back to the airport yesterday.What a great meeting Peter Barker,the club and everyone involved in organising should be congratulated 120 pre 75 riders, 200 bikes and what an event.Some very fast guys but even more smiles. Great to meet Mick "the pensioners friend", Trevor "no arse", Garry "Smashed Kidney" and Mike "kidney killer" nice to also see again Tossa, Mark,Gary and John from Victoria along with Steve and Alison from WA Only wished I could of ridden oh well maybe next time.


Cheers

Tossa....you are a tossa, no two ways about about it. Was great to meet you but I think I`ll wear gloves next time I get to shake your hand and laugh at you in pain. I've got this weird rash growing up my arms........????? Maybe next time you might be up for 8 races a day and then the finals, instead of hangin around waving a flag and layin on the track wasting time!

To all the crew from WAVMX, thanks for a great 4 days. The organisation of the event could not have been better and I know that memmories of such an awesome venue and a great bunch of people will remain until I (we) get back there for the 20th. The track was absolutely pristine and I can only imagine the hours put in. Well done to all those involved with the running of a top event. Those that didn't get over there this year may well have missed out on some of the best riding on the vintage calender. Roll on the 20th anniversary. I have a feeling it will be even bigger.

A huge thank you to All the volunteers who hang around and help us lot have all the fun.

It would be great to see a few of you blokes and bloketts come over and have a go at what i think is one of the best natural terrain tracks in Aus, Harrow. Im sure much fun could be had. I heard a rumour that a queens birthday long weekend may be on. Keep an eye on www.classicscamble.org.au

Excellent photo's Christine...At least one you has talent!

Cheers

Yeah, the people wavin flags keep it all happening all right. Without them, our sport would be hard to keep going. Not so sure about the people laying down on the track though.....

We got back on Thursday night, spent friday pulling my B50 to bits after finding I had cracked the seat base which dislodged the airfilter. Seems I managed to sneek some of Narrogin across the border inside my motor. Ahh the joys!

It was a great time, both on the wheels and around the fire. Im sure we will meet up again, sometime in the not too distant future I hope.

Thanks for the good clean racing Steve, which is more than I can say for my team mate!

Cheers
Mark

Yeah, someone has to hold the torch for us mexicans mate.....lucky i did stay up so late (2 hours more than you according to the clock!) otherwise I would have ridden even slower..... Still, the whole shebang was top stuff and I had a ball followin most of the A grade around and only had 3 DNF's and 1 late start  ::) Not bad considering I did more laps on Friday practice than I had since Connondale Nats  ;D

I will take you up on the offer of more pics. Email on the way!

Hope your'e on the mend and not whingin anymore. God knows Christine would have had enough by now.

Cheers
Mark
