Anybody coming via Mt Lindsay highway then Beaudesert/Boonah rd be prepared for long waits....the roadworks are horrendous. Tracks great, plenty of people already there, the criminals from South Australia have arrived (lock up your daughters  ;D). See you there.

Just one sour note. Ray Buchanan rang to say someone stole the Monster banners, and one of their Quickshades, and asked us to keep an eye out for them

Bugger.  Shouldn't be hard to spot as they would stand out.

Of course I would be checking that container heading for WA .. that mob all looked like escaped cons to me :)  Or maybe those thieving South Australians that Davey was referring to earlier .. they looked as dodgy as hell as well :)

Just joking of course .... the usual inter state rivalry still going strong :)  I would not expect the perpetrators to be one of the excellent VMX community that attended .... maybe some day trippers?  Were they left up after Sunday night Col ?

Are you serious.

I packed my truck late Sunday arvo and slept under the stars. About 2am I woke up, put on my thongs and had a piss. I was awoken shortly after this when I heard some talking. Thinking nothing of it I went back to sleep. When I got up to leave I noticed my thongs had gone missing. I know thongs, stiff shit, but in all the years of being in VMX I have never had one thing stolen. I just hope these two things are not related. I would hate to think that we had a thief roaming around on Sunday night. I had my trailer unlocked and open and have still not unloaded it. I hope nothing was taken from it.

Probably the same mob camped next door from last year, helped themselves to deck chairs, tables and even the kettle.  ::)  :o 
Only to have older Auntie M walk right up to them,giving an ear full. Then taking our WA gear back and emptying their contents off the table onto the ground.  :o  :)
There is benefits of being an older lady  ;)  ;D

We got a bit pissed on Sunday night so we didn't bother to put the bikes on the trailer or even put the tools away. I had a bit of a panic attack during the wee hours and got up to find tools scattered all over the ground......right where we'd left them ;). A few hours later a huge wind gust blew through the pit area and picked up my Quickshade and threw it over my Jeep, scratching a fair bit of paint off it and depositing a fair bit of white Quikshade paint on the Jeeps black surface......quite a mess but it could have been much worse. Thanks to the young Bowen boys and their mate from Victoria for collecting my Q-shade, folding it up and laying it safely by our trailer before us hungover old farts could get out of bed. ;D

I left at 10pm after being held to ransome by, Firko, Slakewell, Ted (Geoff Toovey's pillow cushion  ;D) and then the 2 headed houso's from Whyalla, the Monster tent was still up at the main gate at that stage....it shits me when things like that happen.
