[HeavenVMX]

Well guys after a lot of phone calls, consternation and with a lot of disappointment we have been forced to cancel the Cessnock meeting this weekend.

There has been around 30mm of rain since 9am along with rain since 4am this morning and it is forecasts for heavy rain for the next 24-36hrs. The local club have recommended that the track will be unfit for use.

Newcastle and Lake Macquarie have had massive down pours with local flooding with over 200mm falling in a few hours today and a large low pressure system will have a major impact on rain for 36-48hrs. A few riders arrived looked and went home. Basically we had no options

We will be rescheduling this meeting for later in the year as the entry was very large with 87 pre entries.

Very sorry but little we could do.

Carl & Greg

And I just cancelled my accommodation at Hunter Vally Travellers Rest, Tony at the motel said because it was within the 48 Hr, not one cent will be refunded. So if anyone is thinking of staying at Cessnock in the future give this clown and his establishment a wide berth.

Ring back and tell them that you still want the room. It stops the arseholes booking it out again.
