Geez, i am glad you told me you were joking  >:( ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Hey Scrivo, Pete(Yamaico) didn't enter an Alpina did he?  >:( ::) :o ;D ;D

Pete, I know you are bringing the 400  ride, but I hope you are bringing the RD as well,
it will make an awesome display, and that is something that this style of event/venue needs to showcase our world 8)
No Alpina entered

There is a show and shine at Gloucester (part of the Expo) and Heaven members will be encouraged to line their bikes up for 30-40min before practice for spectators to have look see 8)

Next Vinduro you should bring your Alpina and I'll bring the Montesa Cota348T and we can have the vintage equivalent of the KTM freerider ride off ;) 8)

Hey it sounds good :)

I know Gloucester had this event last year, great that Club Heaven have got into bed with them.
Reasonable assumption that this is set to grow as an annual Gloucester mecca pilgrimage, and hopefully including VMXer's on a regular per/an-um basis as well  ;D ;D ;D ;D :) :) :) ;D :) :) :) 8) this thing sounds cooler than snow flakes ;D

I have what I reckon are a few real unusual good sorts to display, but I only have two tracks on my trailer at the moment, one of them reserved to bring the Alpina home ::) a six bike capacity is close, but she isn't singing yet.

Hey Scrivo, Pete(Yamaico) didn't enter an Alpina did he?  >:( ::) :o ;D ;D hey theres a plan, is there any law that says you have to race with mudguards?

Pete, I know you are bringing the 400 to ride, but I hope you are bringing the RD as well,
it will make an awesome display, and that is an opportunity that this style of event/venue is begging for to showcase our world8)
I am hoping that some other interesting classics may turn up on display as well, even if they aren't intended for getting down & dirty.

I did plan on bringing the RD up Mick, but I don't think I'll have it sorted enough to race. And no, I didn't enter the Alpina :D :D

The Gloucester Rotary club runs the Motorcycle Expo as a fund raiser for motorcycle safety on local roads (Bucketts Way and Thunderbolts Way mainly). Last year they held a recreational ride for VMX bikes and asked MNSW to be involved. MNSW provided a representative to help organise and run the events.

Well done MNSW 8)

The Rotary Club wanted a race event to be a highlight of the weekend and asked MNSW how to go about it. MNSW recommended that they contact Heaven VMX and here we are. Gloucester Rotary Club and local Heaven Member Steve Relf have been a massive help.

again well done MNSW  8)
Well done Steve Relf  8) :) :)
Well done Gloucester Rotary club  8)

We would welcome anyone that wants to be part of the event to flag, help out, display bikes in the Ulysses Club show and shine. See the flyer at the top of this thread.

I think he has been an Astro fan since Jeff Lawrence had one in the mid 70's

If at first you don't succeed, lower your standards.

Flat track with three very small smooth jumps (will not even trouble the '58 model Jawas) equipment on hand to keep the track that way

Can anyone south of Sydney transport one bike to Gloucester for me? Happy to drop it around to your place during the week. Please PM me if you have a spare slot on your trailer.

Thanks
