So the bigger the event the higher the cost..............is that because the risks are higher....I think not.
It use to be because the draw card was bigger, the gate/crowd should have been bigger therefore because ACU/MA invented the sport, they could command more from the punters. Not so in VMX terms until a couple of good Kiwis want to come and have some fun and run with some good Aussies.
Then the flag goes up and like all pollies they see the dollar signs.

Well, the sidecar guys are out.

Interesting bye line....Rugby League found out (by accident) how inadequate their insurance coverage was and are taking measures to fix that.
We should do the same and maybe fix two problems in one move.

I applied for my license to MQ, got it in my hand 8 days after putting the papers in the post. With the discount for my one meeting license that  I had paid for in the few weeks prior to applying.

Cheers

Dave,

         What exactly is basic cover for death and permanent disability in monetary value?

Shouldnt this be dIsclosed on application as entrants are effectively taking out an insurance policy.

So now Dave has to be the MA insurance expert too. Bet that's not in the job description.

Hang on a minute. It was just a simple question, which I duly got a simple answer from someone associated with the insurer.

Why the smartarse remark.

I don't know what you sidecar guys are complaining about, you get 2 (rider / swinger } for the 1 entry fee. What the? If the club members don't support these big events they will die off. As a past treasurer it will cost well over 20k to run this event do the math.

What's the weather going to be like.  Hopefully we can get some showers leading up o the meeting.  There is nothing like rain to make a track perfect.

Kev you know the weathers going to be awesome  ;D a little rain into the lead up to soften things up and then perfect conditions for a perfect event  :)

I believe you guys have some Kiwi MX royalty entered who will be wanting to take it to the top Aussies  :) This event really sums up what VMX is all about to me, im only pissed because I cant come and play  :(

Might yet come and watch though  ;)

Thanks Simo that's much appreciated  :) but thanks to lots of generous folks bikes are a plenty. However when I do get back for a ride I would love to take you up on your offer and would be happy to reciprocate if you get over this way   :)

Its a red tape/ financial thing, but don't want to dwell on that, lets focus on how cool the event is going to be   :)
