Harrow Vinduro July 27-28, 2013
« on: November 19, 2012, 07:25:35 pm »
In light of all the trash talking that's already begun ahead of next year's event (http://ozvmx.com/community/index.php?topic=24205.0), I thought I'd start a new thread with the correct date in it to avoid confusion. After all, the only confusion associated with Harrow should be confined to the actual directions and arrows on the loop itself!

Nice flyer...
But, is that thing crossing the river a relic from the cold war?

Gezz , thats a long time from now.

The Welsh  and the Czech  guys will have broken any machinery they have  , providing they managed to fix it after the last Harrow effort.

I have been advised that the Czech guys are using rebadged Huskys in a desperate bid to finish and regain some lost mojo.

The Welsh guy's never had any Mojo and are rumored to be flashing back with velour outfits .

Autos are the way forward , see you round like a robot
Take the short cut, go Cross Country
The shortest distance between two points is Cross Country
CCM's and HL's bark like mad dogs

Only 193 sleeps to go....
What to wear?
Mud tyres or Rock tyres?
Compass for navigation?
What bikes to take...?
How much beer?

Am I the only one feeling under pressure?

Will the International Teams turn up?
Will they be ready to ride or Latte?
Will their bikes.....?

Only 81 sleeps to go!

A reliable source tells me the Welsh captain is making the trip home soon to try and recruit Gerriant Jones the well known Honda/Maico rider to bolster their team's chances in the event. And, that he's been working on disguising a late model Husky to enter on himself - looking for reliability.

By now the Czech team are in training, fitness work, mechanical works - tweaking things, remounting their back to front kick starters and taking masking agents.

And the French? Their busy protesting the use of English language, sipping on Latte and preparing their French (Canadian) machines, perhaps trying to colour coordinate their machine colours with their flag.

Unfortunately there is no second source to confirm all of this, so it could be true!

The only thing the Czech team would be doing is figuring out how to out cheat the Italians!

ONLY 60 SLEEPS TO GO!!!!
So how are bike and body preps going :D, whos coming, who's not? Its gonna be a wild 4 days for me as i've been lucky enough to score a spot at the Shane Watts "DirtWise" school taking place at Devils Kitchen (near Ballarat) on the thurs/fri before hand. So i'll be leaving home at sparrows fart Thurs morning with the old and new machinery in tow, spend 2 days in a small group (20) getting the skills honed with Wattsy then head straight to Harrow when we're done there on Fri arvo. Very much looking forward to spending 4 consecutive days in the saddle!! ;D Two of those days i'll be lucky enough to be in the company of seasoned, highly skilled professionals that are a fantastic source of knowledge, the other two i'll be at Harrow! :D :D ;) See y'all there

Cheers, Brendan

Is it true you need a road licence to compete at Harrow? J
