Hope the Dozer driver remembers the dry crossing for the OSSA

Got it done today.  The track is perfect as is the weather report 8)

Don't miss this.  If you want to spend some good quality time on your bike this ride is it ;)

Have given the IT 250D a clean up after helping set the track up last weekend  ;D
Can't wait to get back out there this weekend. Weather forecast is lookin' good.

Hey Noel how much of an advantage does a 50+ yr old get on a '77 bike..... I need all the help I can get just to stay in front of the sweep rider.. :D

Hey Noel, what about a 49 year old on a '76 bike?   ::)

Photos look great NSR.

We should arrive Friday night ... late I think.

What about an age/bike age/ distance travelled formula for picking winners?

Will there be showers there?

What an awesome W/end.  The weather was perfect.  The track was one of the best I've ridden. 
And team Sunny coast took out the VMX mag Teams challenge.
For me this was the best competition Vintage event I have done, it was a shame there weren't more riders to share it with :(.
We will be asking the club if we can run another next year.  We just won't be able to grantee as perfect track conditions as we had for this one.

Thanks to the SCMCC, The Bell family, Conondale P&C, CMH, Metalink bike trailers and VMX mag.
   
Cheers

Excellent event, good track, good weather, good mates. What more do you need, except a few more riders maybe. Was great to see all different bikes and levels of rider skill and experience get on so well together both on and off the track. Even the gumbies down the back of the starting list, myself included,  were having a ball trying to catch the guy in front.
So even if you've never raced enduros before , next time there's one on, grow a pair of dibs, and come and race with the real men of motorcycle sport, ENDURO RIDERS.
it's A HOOT. ;D

Yeap Great weekend, Huge thanks to Noel, Rick and Co for track set up and preparation.

Well done Sunshine coast club for a well run event, hopefully we'll see this event next year. Team Vintage IT are looking forward to challenging Team Sunny Coast and Team Kyogle for the TOP step of the podium in 2014.

Yes...great job all round Sunny Coast Club....Fantastic weekend.
Was great to be able to ride a few laps on Saturday camp over with a few mates around a camp fire, lots of lies and laughter and a few too many beers  ;D
Leisurely start the next morning and we still got the 8 laps in easy..hats off to the 2 ladies at the start gate with all their hand signals and pointing trying to get everyone in the right order....and we still had time for a lunch break.
What a great weekend all round...well, except for the last lap when I threw a chain and smashed the case on the old 250D  :(

Hey Noel, are there any photo's posted anywhere?
