What a great weekend, Wade and myself made the trip up from Glen Innes, well worth the drive . One of the best vinduro loops i have ridden. It was a bit hot and with a lap taking us about 40 minutes ,you certainly felt it by the end of the weekend. Thanks to the Toowoomba M.C. and the friendly locals who invited us to sit around saturday night to have a few drinks and talk bulls##t. Top weekend.

What a great way to start the year.  Another great track put together by guys who know what their doing. 
Good long loop, the dust wasn't an issue and the 40Deg made it tuff in a good way, after three laps you sure knew you had done something.  Which is what you want at a non comp event.  More riders at this one and I'm sure there will be even more at the next one.
With this one being so good and the Metelink Sprint it would be great to have one more club do a Vinduro or two.

Thanks to Laurie and the gang at TMCC for a great weekend.
Probably the most extreme heat combined with tight riding I've probably ever done...... :o
Loved the track especially the additional Hard (to find) bit Laurie chucked in just before the top of the rock staircases ..... I now know what a pin ball feels like as you bounce off trees snaking your way through the tight single track.. great stuff. :-X The old '84 XR200 took it in its stride. The IT250D struggled a bit not having the ground clearance.
Then there was Lantana Lane, the loose rocky downhills and the great creek beds.  15 klms of fantastic riding.
Can you turn the temperature down a bit for the next one in September though??  Can't wait.
 :) :)

Thanks TMCC,

That was an excellent loop, with a bit of nearly everything thrown in.

Sorry I couldn't be there for Saturday, Valentine's obligations.

You guys are doing a great job, can't wait 'til next time.

Cheers, Daryl

Thanks to all who attended the HOTTEST  :-[ :-[ Vinduro of the year. It's great to see the positive feed back from you on this forum, plus it's good to know you liked the section my wife cut through the scrub for you boys to ride, and she thought that vinduro riders are soft, ha, ha. The heat sure did make the ride a little tougher than expected, but true to form you old enduro riders didn't hesitate for one minute and attacked the course with gay abandon. Those beers sure did taste nice afterwards.  We are all ready planning our next Vinduro for the 13th and 14th of September 2014, so stay tuned for more info as it comes to hand.
