Peter. I for one don`t what barrabool to close, I would like CSC and Sporting go forward together and put on the Australian Vintage titles. I asked Beekie if this could be done.
what does gary A think, there is a new CEO at MA now, where do we start. Maybe start with putting our hand up to run the Australia VMX Title, as long as the Sporting club is all for it.

Get the job done Dave! You need to put your proposal to the CSC or the Sporting Club and they in turn will submit a proposal to MA if they want to run it.

From what I have read about MA's stance on playing hard ball with Barrabool, lets hope they (MA) see Barrabool as THE PLACE in Victoria to host a National event.....It would sure be better than Broadford.
Arrogance.....A way of life for the those that having nothing further to learn.

Guys, whilst it would be great fun there's far more important things going on at the moment than one event in one year.  We want more than that and we are asking people to work with us to help us get there. 

Riders will get their chance to come to Barrabool next year, thats a promise.  And it will be special.
Trouble is we are only allowed one big event next year and we have things already in the pipeline.  At this stage any talk of running the Classics is stepping on toes somewhat.

If people want to help Barrabool then helping us in the political arena is where they can help most!

Barra, would it be a good idea for someone who knows the exact Barrabool situation relative to MA, local authority etc, to write a comprehensive letter to relevant clubs. We all want to see Barabool survive, but most of us have little understanding of the true picture.
With both MA and the authorities, informed input from the clubs should carry some weight.

Bendigo MC has applied for the post classic Nat's to be held at Ravenswood, just waiting to hear the outcome of which club actually gets it.

This makes me happy.

WRT Barrabool, I'd read that it was all over at the end of 2015. Love to hear that this is not correct.

Does MA have an ownership stake in the track?
The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.

Also re Barrabool, was there ever an accounting of where the money sponsoring bricks ended up?

I have already spoken to Peter Allard and others at the last club day they had, they turned there nose up at my suggestion.

That doesn't surprise me Dave....I also made the same suggestions when I was there and got the same result as you. Shame, but the present committee seem more interested in pre85 Vinduro than Classic Scrambling.....

Supersenior, with goal posts constantly changing and the situation being so complicated, we could not begin to tell the story to clubs etc in one letter.  But we are trying!
For those genuinely interested we have a lot of info on the club website which we update fairly regularly www.smcc.com.au
Not wanting to hijack this thread I have started another in response to questions raised over in ‘General discussion’.

Well.... perfect opportunity for the people from the other side of the island to come over..bring the significant other.. travel around and visit the Marg River wine region..all we need is a date.. it has been a few years since we have ridden at Jindong..but my recollection it was a great track, very adaptable to VMX.. can't wait

May I suggest early Oct. Aug/Sept very busy over here.
Pleased WA has stepped up. Crank up those old Superseniors, looking forward to resuming combat with Watto, Ron Tyresome, Jesse James, and maybe drag the old CCM warriors out of hibernation. We'll have minimum three SS from Brisbane MCC.
