Well so far over 45 expressions of interest in the club, not bad for something that came out of alcohol and the National titles in SA, 7 weeks ago.  Makes you wonder how many babies were caused by alcohol and MX events.  Oh yeah, I can count one!!lol

Now come on just get in touch with Georgina at

http://www.westcoastsafaris.com.au/who

to confirm you're coming on 16th Nov.  Yes I already know who has replied, before someone comes on here and tells me "I already registered"

Five weeks to VinduroWA's first event at Kirup in WA's scenic southwest. 15/16th November is the date and Westcoast Trailbike park is the venue, with a camp over on Saturday nite and a ride day on the Sunday. All vintage enduro and trail bikes are welcome, and, if you have not got one, bring your MX bike, (as long as it's Pre 90). The aim of the club is to get back to the way things used to be and enjoy the "scene" and the camerderie of like minded people in a relaxed environment. Checkout the VinduroWA Facebook page for further details and contact information. Now I must get back to the shed and fiddle with IT and watch Bathurst! ;D

Looks like we have our first venue for next year a few things to tie up but a very productive meeting with a land owner today.  No more info at this point in time, need to get a few ticks in some boxes first, but we are on the way

Two weeks before VinduroWA's first official gathering, should be a good weekend for it! Get your act together and get your application into West coast Trailbike  Park and be part of WA motorcycling history with the formation of WA's newest offroad motorcycle club. :D

Look forward to catching up mate. I heard you might be back for good, is that true? I will keep an eye out for any prospective bikes for you. I know of a partly built Husky in  the hills south east of Perth.
The motor will never give you any grief (last time I saw a picture of it it didn't have a one in it!!) :D

Ok this is war, you of little faith.  Though i might end up riding a suzuki on the day if I can't find the motor.
I'm just waiting to see you spear off into the bush as you bring yourself into the 20th century on a bike with the gearshift on the correct side (left). Did you see the nice Ossa pioneer one of the guys picked up with a heap of parts. 
Will be great to see your fluro clothed body Rossco. 
Bring on the 15th (on any sunday) then some fun on 16 Nov

Good point Barry!! Not too good with the left hand gear changing any more. Might have to slip the 500cc Beeza engine from the JFS into the It!!! ;D

Getting serious now.  This weekend 15-16 first get together to discuss forming a club.  All the relevant paperwork in for incorporation then it will be off to MWA for ratification.

We have received great support with indications of over 50 expressions of interest

So this weekend at http://www.westcoastsafaris.com.au/Park_Intro

We have about 20 people turning up for a ride and discussion.  Boith Nick and myself would like to thank all those that have shown a lot of interest in this project.  Now it's time to have some fun.  Nick on his IT(bets are being taken on stuffed gear changes), me on the Husky (please make the distance) and a fair few other bikes that have been acquired just to go back to riding fun enduro events.

Now let's see if we can make it happen

Well it's just about ready for the weekend.   Smoking like a haystack as it clears excess oil.  Thanks to Paul Gibbs, Geoff Davison and Russell Speak for all their work.  Will do more over the summer.  So far 22 riders for the get together all in just 12 weeks when the idea was hatched;
