The members will decide , and it will be a reasonable vote if the current paid up members vote

Its most important to remember , if youre a member and you don't vote , "dont grumble" if it does not go the way you think it should have.

Voice your opinion and have a vote , SUPPORT YOUR CLUB

In 1986 I was 10 years old. I used to ride my pushy past BW Northcott suzuki in blacktown.
I dreamed of riding one of those bikes!!!! Never did though I had no money no chance of ever riding one let alone racing one.
So much so at around 12 I piched a whipper snipper and put the motor on my old BMX (Also got hammered from the oldman when he saw it)
Anyway I never got a bike untill after my son was born. Now i have a go at riding pre 85 and for sure I am not a quick young gun by any means but i love it.

My point is this I started racing at 38 on a 77 model bike (just one year younger than me).
I would personally love to see pre 90 at Heaven and have sent my vote in as I will be OS.

For me this is a real positive and makes sense.

The only negative is I have to find a pre 90 bike ;D

Thank fudge for that - our club has a future. :)

A huge congratulations to Kenneth for all his hard work, and thanks to the committee for their work in dealing with all of the administration side of things (particularly Greg S).


This is a happy day. :)

I'm not a member of Heaven, nor even a New South Welshman anymore, but well done to HeavenVMX and the committee for showing some vision for the future. A united club is a strong club.

In Victoria, clubs are struggling to get the numbers to make running events a profitable exercise. It's a struggle to break even apparently.

I for one reckon there is too much division in Victorian VMX. 2 registered clubs being CSC and Viper and 1 register VCM.
I think it's about time that an amalgamation of the 3 was given an opportunity of bringing the Victorian VMX scene back to what it once was. As it stands, there are 3 clubs trying to take different chunks out of what is essentially, a very small market.

Again, well done to HeavenVMX for voting on a positive future. 
Arrogance.....A way of life for the those that having nothing further to learn.

Will be interested to see if Pre 90 bolsters the Heaven numbers or just gives a few standing members the option of riding another class.

Great result !! as a former Heaven club member from 2001 -2007,I think it's a great move into the future.
I am sure our mate Magoo is smiling up there.He was a proponent of pre 90 like most forward thinkers.

Most of the Norths/Retro regulars will now join, and participate in pre-85 races too.
I sent out an SMS to a few of the Norths blokes this morning - and two of them immediately asked if I knew of any Pre-85 bikes for sale (that's in addition to the one who took a gamble and bought a Pre-85 bike a month back...).

I'm certainly going to get to a hell of a lot more Heaven events in 2015 than I have done in the last couple of years.

When VERi got an almost unanimous vote to remain Pre-85, it seemed obvious that a club with an established Pre-85 agenda would have a majority of members who wanted it to remain Pre-85.
That HEAVEN (as an established Pre-85 club) had a very strong vote for change, says that the change was well overdue.
