HEAVEN at Canowindra

[Graeme M]

OK, I know that the Canberra round hasn't happened yet, but I reckon it's time to start pushing the Canowindra weekend. I went to the inaugural Canowindra event last year and it was a blast. I haven't heard anything about this year's event, but if it's even half as goods as the one last year it'll be a pearler. Located at the local showgrounds, it's well catered, got great facilities, is ably supported by the town, and just sheer good fun.

It's down for the weekend of October 2/3 so it's not that far off now. If you live within travelling distance, you GOTTA do this one. Just to whet the appetite, here's some photos from 2009 (thanks Greg)

This was a real stand-out event last year, and this year is only going to be better.

I'm not 100% sure that I'll make it - but rest assured that if I don't, its for a damn good reason!

[Stewart Allen]

To quote the obvious this is a ball tearer (theres a blast from the past) won't be riding this year (pretty pissed off) but planning to be up there to enjoy the vibe.

hey guys and girls,
anyone who has any sugestions of any changes for this year canowindra event please let me know. willing to take anything on board and see what can be done. the only thing i ask is that there is no rubbish talk on this thread as there is on others.
the even will be taking place at the same venue Canowindra Showground and unfortunatly does not include a loop around the golf course. 
as there was last year, there will be a great meal available on the saturday night so make sure when it comes time to enter, place your orders. there also will be the canteen running on both days with drinks, snacks and probably a snag sanga.
the rounds will be the same as last year with canowindra cup events on the saturday and heaven rounds on the sunday. we are going to try and start a little earlier on saurday so we can fit more rounds in. i will be in touch with the commitee to confirm details and will let everyone know asap.
as for accomodation, you are again more than welcome to camp on the grounds, but if you would like to stay in a hotel or motel, plan your stay very soon. accomodation is rare around this time of year. will post some numbers of accomodation shortly.
p.s. the local rspca have warned that there may be some chance of a turtle or two crossing the track this year again. so please keep an eye out......
see you all at canberra.

cheers greg

Hey Greg how about adding a Pre '90 class  (I say, that's a joke son)

Seriously though this event last year was a ripper and I reckon you don't need to change a thing.

It should be remembered that Canowindra was the last race meeting that we got to see our mate Magoo in action. And he was on fire winning almost everything he entered.

Maybe it would be good for the club to do something for Ann and the kids as well as Bruce's memory.

Cheers

was this meeting the last heaven meeting that magoo rode in? if so i know it`s very short notice but how about the heaven club put a flyer together and hand it out at the penrith/heaven charity weekend.i think you may flush out some of bruce`s mates. 

[xl59]

micks, that sounds like a great idea. unfortunately i wont be able to make it but i know a bloke around here that is going, i will pull one together and send it down there.

sugar, we have an idea about doing sumthing for magoo and his family, have to speak to the commitee and run it past them first before i say anything. i will let you know what the outcome is.

Sounds good Greg. If there is anything I can do down here to help you out please let me know.

Cheers

Hi

Just a reminder, this meeting is only 3 weeks after Canberra which is only just over one week away. The time will fly and the event will be here.  Are you camping or booking accomodation?
