Poll: Who are the OzVMX Members?

[Graeme M]

Just curious. We have well over 1500 members, but I don't think 1500 race. So, who are we all? What do we really get from VMX? Vote above and let's see.

I think there needs to be a few more choices. What about the die hard Dirt Track racers, Vintage Enduro and Trials nuts? I'm as obsessed about riding (competing on) my old dirt bikes as anyone, but don't fit any of the answers.

[Graeme M]

Fair point. When I say VMX I mean the whole scene, which is usually known by that collective term. But I've changed it to be more generic. However, when I say Vintage or Vintage Racing, I mean riding or racing old dirtbikes made before 1985. And that includes Vinduro, Trials, Speedway and so on.

Thanks Graeme - vote cast

Good survey Graeme but I can't find a category to fit into. I love the old bikes. Collect and restore the bikes, but rarely ride one comes close but I ride my bikes often but I just don't race them. I think there are others in my same boat so can I suggest changing the word ride for race?

[YUMASTEPSIDE]

I'm with Firko,ride as often as can, and the occasional race ( Vinduro for me ). For me, its about the bikes and the people more than the racing.

I was mainly trying to find out how much the OzVMX members race. So, I've changed that option about restoring to read more to suit people who collect and restore and maybe ride, but don't race much.

You need a class that says......"I love hoarding old Maicos but I'm too scared to start 'em in case they go bang"

or something there of......

I spoke to the sidecar lads last sunday at practise and have come to the conclusion that we should onle RACE 3 to 4 times per year (on the old bikes) and have a similar ammount of HBBC and CD type of shows or we will be turning our valuable works of art into piles od scrap fit for the tip.
We are already spending time and dollars welding and repairing them too much, not to mention more dollars looking for those elusive HP.

1700 members but only 123 voters?

Pfft.. I know of at least one guy using 2 or 3 different logins so he can comment on things whilst hiding his true identity.  He doesn't hide it well though!  A few more of those and the true numbers will be skewed a bit!
