2012 Canowindra Cup
« on: May 31, 2012, 08:39:11 pm »
OK, it's a little while off, but well worth booking into your calendar now. The 2012 HEAVEN funfest at Canowindra will be held over the weekend 29/30 September 2012 (note: September - I earlier had October which is not correct).

A fun grasstrack laid out in the local showgrounds, in the middle of town, with covered pits and catering on hand, and a huge helping of 'feel good' vibes. It just doesn't come any better than this one. I'm told this year the track will feature sand and berms but no jumps to help encourage first timers and maybe some dirt trackers to come and have a go. My recommendation? Don't miss it.

More info soon.

 Hi Guys and Girls,i know its a busy time but i hope you all can make it to the CANOWINDRA CUP.We have a few things to hopefully make you feel welcome  starting with a sausage sizzle as you arrive friday night .A coin dropped in my trusty tin for the WESTPAC HELICOPTER is all it will cost ya ,mite even find a beer or a soft drink for you.Saturday nights meal is going to be good,my wife and a couple of friends are cooking with a bit of help from me.A B.B.Q style meal is what we are thinking.Steak or sausage or maybe a rissole with fresh salad and potato bake.Also some nice desert. And it will be cheap.But trust me the girls can cook.We will be donating any money raised to the HELICOPTER DONATION TIN.                                                                                                                                                                   THANKS GREG         P.S I HAVE A JERSY THAT HAS BEEN SIGNED BY ABOUT TEN OF THE TOP MX RIDERS FROM LAST YEAR,IF ANY ONE IS INTERESTED MAKE ME AN OFFER .I CAN FRAME IT IF YOU LIKE.MONEY GOING TO HELICOPTER AS WELL

I think all these come from behind victories are getting to you Hardo. I'll have to get my Steam Train sorted and see if I can stem the flow, although that will be a tough ask given your current form!

Greg, will you have any Gluten Free food on the menu?  Also can I organise some 'Transporter' parking for my mobile Lizard Lounge please? 8)

Hey Greg

Team Bevo will be in on the family pics, helmets on or off. With my rough head I think helmets on.

How are you going with the track design?

A big long straight so the 500 can get up to full noise and blast those pesky green 250's especially that number 12.

Speak soon and see you at CD
