NSW Vintage Dirt Bike Display UPDATED 6 / 7 / 2013

[firko]

Firko picture this, It's the 3rd and final deciding round of the Pre 65 series and you are perched high up in the Canowindra Showground grandstand, knocking back a coldy from your esky watching these behemoths battle it out on a warm October late arvo. Then simply walking right next door to the very welcoming Golf Club, ordering a steak and throwing down as many schooners as you can fit in.
 

Ted, I'm planning on riding that event on one of Jonesy's pre 65's, possibly Black Betty. I'll be at CRC and the other Buladelah round as well with someone or other on my bikes.

Hey Wollongongwolf, bring some Vinduro bikes and spread the Vinduro Gospel

[Rookie#1]

This is coming along fantastic and will most certainly be a site to see on the day, a credit to all those giving up their time and putting in the effort to make it happen. I would like to make some enquiries and do some research and see of the same thing can be replicated at Victorian venue in the near future. Its great to see everyone having a positive and constructive outlet to put their VMX passion into at the moment. Well done Ted and others.

TED & PCMAX looks like I am working that day and won't get away till lunchtime BUT I will have a talk to my mate with the Decksons today I am sure we can get some of my Coopers, XR75's etc to the show, you can count us in.

How much space are we allowed? If everyone is true to their word we'll have 100 bikes and that many take up a lot of space....not counting the trailer and ute parking. I'm going to Sutto's today or tomorrow to gather my own mental picture and suss out the area. I might run off a couple of photos .

Hi All

I know no-one personally in the VMX scene as I have not competed at any level however after attending CD9 and loving it I would love to bring my 1982 RM 465Z along but will check with my wife on the date before committing.

With so many bikes and hopefully a big crowd I would suggest sending out a media release to see if you cant get the local news papers or even one of the mobile TV news crews to come down, they always seem to finish the Saturday news with a feel good story and I think an event like this would fit the bill perfectly.

Congratulations on pulling this together!

[Ted]

Thanks BETRIC

Bitten,
          Bring your RM . This will be a perfect opportunity to meet like minded people. I don't think us motley bunch are very newsworthy. Will see how we go in the final couple of weeks RE: Attracting media attention.

Mark,
        There is plenty of room. The factory to the rear of his is not let. Chris actually said as many as we want. His staff member suggested we cap it at 100. If we get 20 % drop out 80 is still a fair number. How many of us were at Rooty Hill? I will gauge space on that. We will not be spread out all casual in deck chairs , we will be just lined up trying to sell our product to the public just as we were at Magoo's Camden show. There is plenty of parking off site in the street for cars and trailers.

If Firko's rat/dunger Maico will be there I've got an award winning C15 Beeza that looks almost identical that I can bring.
You guy's have done well.

I was going to take some bikes but if you're getting that award winning C15 out again Steve, I'm not so sure. Almost impossible to be anywhere near that....

[Wollongongwolf]

Ted,was thinking about bringing the TS400 up, have to check my shifts.
I would try and post a pic, but can't seem to work out how to do it from my iPad.
Sorry, day shift on that day, always the way.

Just finished a make-over on the Dirt tracker RM125A, I will throw a pic up tonight to see if it's acceptable Ted.
Cheers
Bret

Damned trophy hunter........

[Ted]

Guys....There are no prizes

Maybe I shouldn't have called it a Show and Shine but called it a display. It's only a get together of old bikes to hopefully enlist more participants in what we do.

( I still hope Husky Pete comes regardless of prizes ) 

Dono 113, Bring your Dirt Tracker. I may even have some bits I will give you.

Get the photobucket app and just touch img file it will copy then just hold on the post and press paste

It works great

Perhaps it might be good to follow up this day with a planned vmx social ride day with the view to actually get the potential vmx recruits to dust of those old bikes, and throw a leg over. Maybe a venue like pacific park etc. I know it's bit of a boring old place for most vmx'ers, but for someone who hasn't been on a bike for awhile, it could be great, plenty of wide open space. Lots of room for people and kind of informal. Classic dirt etc might be a bit overwhelming for the newbies to the sport. Just a thought.
