If Nathan is your son , he is a real credit to you. A polite intelligent young fella. Just wish he rode with us old fellas. Might have to give him a ride on my 77 RM 125 one day, just so he doesn't think they are all shift boxes in Pre 78 ;D

When did it click Mark? LOL

Ted, I have kept my 84 KTM to ride with you lads, I'll be renewing my "Heaven" membership in 2014 ;)

I dream is to see everyone catered for. I love MX/SX/VMX and I want to see the sport survive into the next generation and beyond, and my view is progression. You all know that.

We're not going to agree on all subjects, but, that's not a bad problem to have! a healthy debate (although heated at times) is a good thing.
Where our sport has suffered (this is not our fault) is that the heritage and history is being lost, there are very few up and coming mxer's or fans (unless their die hard) that know of our great champions. I have asked several people on a spare of the moment  who is Stephen Gall? as sad as it is, they could not tell me! They called themselves real fans! i shook my head in disgust!

They could tell me who Gary Abblett, Arthur Beetson & Greg Chappell are!

It's sad!

I would consider myself a tragic! I'm familiar with the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, 2000's! Because of my old man, i have lived, breathed,  bathed in petrol and Castrol R all my life!

I'll keep coming back, even though i spit it from time to time. I have an interest, and its MX! My dream, is to see everyone accept everyone for every era, and accept we're all in this together for the greater good of the sport.

I love pre 75,70,65,60 etc! But, i'll be buggered if i want to ride them ;D ;D I think dad shares the same opinion, as he only likes to look at them for a limited time these days:)
Cheers

I've known for quite a while but forgot all about it until Dave's post. It'd be a pretty hard secret to keep in this community ;). I wasn't being a smart arse either, I just thought it odd that neither of you have acknowledged the relationship on here, not that it's anyone's business of course. I reckon it's a great thing that you're both into old bikes....whatever era.

What good would it do for either of them?
What good does it do for you to point it out?

No idea,  I just liked the way Dave stuck up for Nathan. DO NOT read motive into my posts that isn't there. You do that way too often.

I knew of the relation ship and had a little chuckle to myself , when Dave posted
ironically Walter, a good percentage of the members here knew it. I wasn't aware it was a secret, never to be mentioned outside of the batcave.

No, I call you out on your snide "plausible deniability" bullshit about 5% of the time I see it.

I've never had a problem with Dave (even when he did the "I've always wanted one of these" routine on me), but I do understand why Nathan's life would be easier without the association being made.
Virtually everyone has been aware of it for a while - but it took you in this thread to point it out.

Nathan,  I've discussed this with those involved offline and it seems you're the only on getting uptight about it. Get over it.

Arthur Beetson and Greg Chappell are Queenslanders but who is Gary Abblett????  (Yes I know Greg was from another state but he is better know as a Queenslander and so is Alan Border).

Mark, I'm well and truly over it, don't worry about that...

Stop the snide politician-speak bullshit, and we can all be happy.
