All righty, no sub-arctic conditions on the Sunshine Coast - so camping should be a goer.

Looks flat enough to be VMX friendly, but hard packed and a grease pit in the wet???

Conondale is a brilliant natural terrain grass track with a couple of hills and is only used 3 or 4 times a year so the grass usually grows back between events. We raced there in the 70's and the track is pretty much the same so i guess that makes it vintage friendly. It's always watered and prepared very well and not too greasy in the wet. I think it will be perfect.

ah,conondale,not canondale,no wonder google earth could not help me.
1600 km from melbourne

let me see 1600 x 2 = 3200 km divided by 5 = 640 litres x $2 per litre =$1280 shared between six =$240
+ boat fare for vehicle divided by six + air fares=
                                              AFFORDABLE
Now all I have to do is put an application into the minister for finances ;)

conondale?
about a liesurely 2hr or less drive north of brisbane and then west a tad. between Malaney and Kenilworth.
some nice elevation changes are possible depending on what track layout they will use.
the good news is that even on a bad day, conondale is perfect.

  Thanks to Hubby's expert advice( so if any photos are in the wrong album, you can blame him! :D ) we broke the photos down in catergories like Pre 75 (which is in two parts) Pre 85 etc.  Now all I have to do is reduce them in size and upload.  Not long to go now.   Thankyou for your patience and anticipation.
 
   I've come a fair way I think in the last 12 months.  It was Fatboy's encouragement that went a long way.  Thankyou  :)

Hey Rossco, there was someone from VMX Magazine.  I spoke to him and there will be something in the next issue.  I have reserved a few of my images because I have sent them to the magazine, fingers crossed a couple will appear ???  If they don't I will post them in their own album.  Speaking of posting, there is three albums up.  More to follow.  Hope there is something there that people can take a look at.
