Will Victoria and Queensland riders travell?
« on: December 10, 2011, 12:03:13 pm »
Having been to all C/dirts and Nats in Victoria,it is easy to see cost of travell and time off work to travel along way to a meeting. If the C/dirt goes back to NSW aprox in the middle travel wise,do you think more would travel? Could be bigger than Ben Hur.

To grow the sport and give everyone an opportunity to experience VMX on a grand scale, I would like to see a CD-Qld, CD-NSW, CD-Vic, CD-SA, CD-WA and a CD-NT each year and every year. Just evenly spaced out so there is a good chance to get interstate attendance. Each state to hold it's own Classic Dirt every year and open to all. I would like to see growth and positive public awareness in our sport.

We travelled over 4,000 klm's round trip from Victoria to this years CD and would have done it again next year but the NSW alternative will make it much easier for us to attend. We had a great run in the early CD days and think it only fair to share the venues around. Can't wait ;D

2 years ago I drove to queensland for the oz titles, had a couple of rides and it was great, it was wonderfull just to be there, I would like to do it again, it would also be good to share the Classic dirt around state by state, if it was more central for all, a small outback country town with natural terrain track the people of that town would grab it with open arms which would help their community,  looking forward to next year.

 the core crew that keep going would probably go where ever it is , you might get a few more if its closer but not alot .I think its more about having a full calender than the distance.
