A special Thanks to Mick-D for his efforts.
« on: June 17, 2014, 07:09:45 pm »
I would like to thank Mick for what he has done for me, it was the first time i meet mick,he is a real gentleman and l found that he was very highly knowledge about maico, he had a tiring endurance drive to Victoria, and picked up a load of bikes along the way for other vmxers and l am sure that those persons appreciate mick for doing that and helping them out,  the next time l meet with mick will be at a race meeting camping around a camp fire talking shit and have a few beers .Thanks mick very grateful cheers Dave.

I too would like to thank MICK for picking up a parts bike for me on his trip, he is one of the few guys left that bother to put themselves out to help others , However I must say that in my short time of VMX  I have a restored faith in people wanting to help others as in todays society it just doesn't happen anymore, the people involved  in the sport are certainly different to the norm , thanks again MICK . relfy

Yep, there are a few good blokes out there, Mick rang me to offer transport for a mates bike. It'd already gone with a transport company but the offer was there and appreciated. Also had GMC and KB chip in. I think the good eggs outweigh the bad fortunately.

Fantastic to catch up with old friends and meet new ones.
I got pretty stressed when the schedule got shot to shit on the first pick up: -\
I didn't calm down till Tuesday ;D :o ::)
So humbled by what BANHZY did for me, top of the heap human, that one 8) one of the best blokes I have ever met.


This next shot was leaving GMC's place

Regardless of how this looks, everything is actually separated by 20mm or a cushion or a tyre.
Nothing moved, nothing came loose, nothing is marked or damaged.

But I have to do some more quick trailer repairs now and reload the treasure now for the CD10 leg of the mission.
So I will be back to the forum and this thread then. Thanks to everyone, catch up then :)

Whoops, sorry mate. I didn't even think of that.
Done now


Paul started this bike first kick when I got there, so I will start it and give it a breif run before I load it.
And put the plug back in ;) 8)
