Hey Hilly, do you still have that old roady you bought a year or so ago?

i have a "motion Pro" Mercury vacuum gauge for synchronising the carbs when you need it. actually i don't have a use for it now at all.

are you still going Firko ?
Yeah Hoony, Jonesy and I are still coming down. Most of the other 'good 'ol boys' have decided to go to the Nats but neither he or I can make that meet so the Bonanza it is. Because we're sharing the  car ride, I'm now only bringing my trusty 350 Maico and Jonesy'll bring his B44 Metisse and a slider or two for some dirt track skids.

I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.

Unfortunately no Hoony, Als been doing some major home renovations which got in the way of finishing the bike. Because of the magnitude of the renos he had to put most of his bikes, including the Nourish in storage to get them out of the way. I'd planned on debuting my Benelli Trackmaster along with his Nourish but some important bits hadn't arrived from the USA in time. It'll be the Nepean Charity meet in August for both bikes now.

Motocross News
Jimmy Ellis set to ride at the 2010 HBBB
Posted: Monday, 22nd March, 2010 : 1:08 PM - - 459 Reads
   
American and Australian Motocross and Supercross Champ, Jimmy Ellis, will take to the tracks this Easter (3-4 April) as part of the 2010 Honda Broadford Bike Bonanza (HBBB).

Born in 1955, in Middletown, Connecticut USA, Ellis was one of the first stars of Supercross, winning the 1975 US 250cc title on a Can-Am.

Ellis began visiting Australia in 1983, contesting the rich Manjimup event in Western Australia in that year onboard a KTM.

In 1984 he won the Australian 500cc Championship at Broadford on a Yamaha, before going one better in 1985, taking both 125cc and 250cc titles at Nobles Falls, Western Australia on Yamahas supplied by Trevor Flood.

Western Australia suited Ellis, and he cleaned up the country’s biggest cash prize in the discipline of Motocross at Manjimup in 1986, winning the $6,000 main event and scoring a trip to Hawaii for good measure.

Later in the year he collected the $3,500 gold nugget first prize at the King of the Cross meeting before a serious knee injury curtailed his top level career.

Ellis who now resides at Bunbury, WA, still enjoys competing in the Veterans class in outdoor Motocross, and will ride a 1979 CR250 Honda at the 2010 HBBB.

More information about the event is available on the MA website: www.ma.org.au/hbbb.
Best is in the West !!

If anyone is looking for accomodation for both the Bonanza and the Nats, Katies Cottage
has become available due to cancellation. It's a 2 bedroom cottage that sleeps 5 (6 at a pinch) is neat and comfortable and being located on Davis rd, is really close to the Broadford complex. We've stayed there before and fully reccommend it.
Ring Rob on 0408 338577 to sort out the details.
