Suzuki Classic Dirt 10 - To be or not to be?

[AjayVMX]

Just out of curiosity, has the event been promoted in the mainstream press at all? I don't think I've seen it in DA or ADB. Is it worth posting a blurb on the various Facebook pages - eg DA, ADB, etc? I have been surprised by the lack of enthusiasm shown here on the forum too, most years there is a lot of hype and discussion but this year not so much.

While I know not everyone is on this site, a LOT are, and they have mates and so on. Everyone needs to push the event and get people registering if they want to come. How about the various clubs like VIPER, QVMX, HEAVEN etc? Maybe an email to members or a post on their websites and Facebook pages.

I am happy to post up a link on the various VMX/MX websites and DT sites I frequent.

Graeme, yes it has been promoted in Trailzone.  Not ADB or DA.

What numbers do you have so far and at what point will you pull the pin.

What numbers do you have so far and at what point will you pull the pin.

The numbers we have are decent but not enough.  We will pull the pin if we don't get more people. 

No further detail will be provided nor is it relevant!

You are either planning to go or not, if you are, you need to pre-register to ride!

Because of the Classic Nats being held in Qld now, QVMX had to change our last meet which is our trophy presentation, dinner, AGM, practice weekend with camping at our Bidaddaba track. MQ would not give us a permit for that date now that they are holding the meeting and the only other date available to us was the CD date (other meetings after this date had to be considered as well). A real pain in the arse as it effects us and CD. ...not happy jan.

Give it a flucking break Nathan.   You just don't know when to quit do you?

I printed and sent via fax and didnt hear anything , either by mail or email , when I rang and spoke to Ken he informs me that they dont send a confirmation WTF

I entered myself and a mate on my card and heard back from Manly club to confirm a day or two later. A week or so later I entered for another mate who's away overseas on business but haven't heard back from Manly with confirmation. Not a complaint, just stating my situation. I really hope everyone can help pull this together, we have seen Classic Dirt grow over the last 13 years to become our sports holy grail, a VMX Woodstock. It'll be a tragedy beyond salvation if the event had to be cancelled so if you can enter, please do it now.

Pull your head out of your arse Firko, He has a fair point!

You know I don't.
But fork me... If CD10 goes down due to lack of numbers while refusing to accept entries from people with VMX bikes, then the problem isn't my inability to let stupidity slide.

Maybe. But now's not the time to bring it all up again.

NO, NOT MAYBE! Were the future of this sport, and all you old farts are shitting in our face, Maybe is the wake up call!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[firko]

and all you old farts are shitting in our face

Lovely....thanks mate.

Nathan and Firko, Both good VMX folk.
I think pre 90 may boost the numbers too. I have no bikes newer than 1983 in my VMXers so i have no vested interest. after all an 89 bike is twenty something years old....
