The Toowoomba Motor Cycle Club is holding a Vinduro at Murphy's Creek October 5 and 6.

The event is for Pre 90's bikes, Enduro bikes, Trail bikes or MX bikes (with a headlight).

There is also an area set aside for Vintage for Twin Shock / pre 90 Trials

It is a non competitive event.

This is an excellent area for dirt bikes, this area is rutted, rocky and hilly. Single track as well as old fire trails. Not a paddock ride.

MQ Sanctioned and all riders will need to have a rec licence or a one day licence. These will be available on the weekend.

Camping encouraged for pit racing and tall stories, no facilities, portable toilets, all BYO incl water.

I will place a flyer up in the next couple of days detailing pricing etc.

Any inquiries call Mick 0421276875

I'm On-board,
Absolutely loved the last one, had a ball.
Great tracks, great bunch of blokes, organisers & participants.

More bizarre vinduro machinery needs to be wheeled out of my workshop & ridden.

cheers, Daryl.

I reckon if you scrap the headlight idea, you might get more entries including MX bikes - It will make the event more viable

How hard is it to fit a headlight? It doesn't have to work even.  Strap a dolphin torch to the front guard  :D Good grief it doesn't take much imagination does it really.... ::)

Gates open from 8.00am Saturday, Entries from 11.00am, riding starting at 1.30pm track closes at 4.00pm. Sunday entries from 7.30am, track open at 9.30am closing at 2.30pm. Camping next to our nice creek is free and is encouraged. Please bring your own water and food. Toilets will be on site. The loop will be longer than last year, we have incorporated some typical old school enduro single track sections through the trees and gullies, and like last year the MX track will form part of the loop. Overall the track will be a nice flowing layout and a heap of fun to ride no matter what your level of experience is. There will be some challenging sections if you want to ride them, it's up to you.  Period MX bikes are very welcome, with or without a headlight. The riders attitude to and the enjoyment of these events is more important than the pedantic attitudes towards perceived eligibility.  Entry fee is $40.00 and MA Single Event Recreational Licenses will be available.
Clubby and Reeksy from Trailzone will also be in attendance to ride and cover the event, plus an Australian MX and off road legend could be coming up to be our special guest rider. 

See you all there, 

Lawrie

Enduro riders have to remove side stands and bark busters to ride in vmx events, so surely mx riders can zip tie an old head light on their bike to ride a Vinduro ? Come on guys, get into the whole vibe of the thing.  ;D
