The 2014 Harrow Vinduro thread!
« on: June 24, 2014, 10:30:35 pm »
This is the place to discuss all matters related to the biggest vinduro event on the calendar - Harrow!

First of all, the theme for 2014:

We've had state and international challenges in the past, but this year we've decided to go with something completely new: Oriental vs Occidental, Japanese vs Rest of the World, Big 4 vs Everyone Else...

Yamaha, Honda, Suzuki & Kawasaki

versus

Can-Am, Husqvarna, Maico, Beta, Rokon, Triumph, Penton, BSA, CZ, Hodaka, Jawa, Moto Villa, CCM, Harley Davidson, SWM, Montesa, KTM, Bultaco, MZ, BMW, Benelli, Fantic, Hercules, etc, etc...

As everyone knows, this is not a competitive event, so the theme is just a bit of fun. However we plan to award a trophy, that might even become a perpetual one. This also means that everyone will automatically be in a team when they enter. So let's get the trash talk happening!

Check out the Breaking News section of the VERi website for rambling and ranting, and you can email us any comments that we'll post there too.

Remember to keep all ribbing and comments nice please  ;).

We will of course continue to run the three man team option as well, so feel free to talk up any rivalries in that regard too.

There is a team from the ACT

As it turns out they are very very very shaky

They may look real sleek

But let it be known they very partial to a swim in the Harrow creek

Last year they got lucky because it was very wet and mucky

This year it will be dry and fast , and other teams are asking "can they possibly last"

They ride KTM's , so no one knows if they will even go , because the their history will tell you so

At the end of July , "Men from the Capital" there will be nowhere to hide just a very long ride and with some luck on your  side your team may just finish the ride.

I believe that as well as the fuel dump point, there will be "Euro Repair Stations" dotted at approx 20km intervals to ensure our European brothers at least get 1 lap in :P

News Just in!! There will only be 3 ERS points this will mean that any bike of European persuasion that is unable to complete the final leg will be shown respect as we are arranging several Polaris quads to Tow them to the finish line. Of Course the Yamaha Quads will be on standby to tow the Polaris Quads but thats a whole other war :P

There is an old Welshman going to Harrow who's chance of finishing on Gold are very very narrow

Away now he may be , in Wales at the Two Day he would be , which presents a good chance for me to take the tomahawk to he.

And as good as he may seem , He is always rejected by the good team

And as much as he will belly ache we say get lost will you for god's sake

Jap crap or Euro depending on what's his current like , He puts up a good fight but can never get the gold finish in his sights.

There is a very good chance he will grow very old and never  get any Harrow gold 

With that all said we finally say

In the Glenelg River we have seen him quiver and time and time again fail to deliver , lets hope this year  he's got some fight to finally hold the gold on Sunday nite.

      Does ERS stand for emergency Rescue stations  ...

      If you have not got enough  4 wheelers I suppose all the Jap bikes can take tow rope to help them get back to the finish.

There was a man called The Stig

And from reports he must not be real big

You know ,one of the lad's he say to me the Stig he only rides a GT 80

So if the weathers no so Stella and the GT 80 you know she's gone to hella , no big worry at least we will be able to carry the little fella

You know the same lad he also say to me , Stig ,that little fella is pretty fast and the GT-80 if she lasts  will insure that the mighty Stig has a blast.

You know just latley we have 100's and 175's , but Stig matey , bless you for riding a GT 80

"Here we go for the final pass ",

Here  go;s the Stig flying round on the homeward lap he is bound , he rode his 80 , three laps matey, "270km Matey" , and thats got to be record somewhere latley ,  he walks to dais ,  everyones gone  but now he's tall and dont feel old because above his head he hold's the gold
