HI Everyone,

in light of the sad news from Victoria, the QVMX committee has decided to donate all profits from our first 2 day event of the year at Mt Tamborine to the victims of the bush fires.

I would like to extend an invitation to all the vintage riders to join us in making this event count.



I will make sure there are details as we get this off the ground but the event will run as per the Newsletter or go to our website at www.qvmx.com

it's a small thing to do for the so many affected by the bush fires.


Cheers

Trev Perren , President QVMX.

Hi Everyone

as of today our sponsors for this event are Motorcycling Queensland, Moto Wreck, Pro Griffin Motorcycles, Team Moto, Motul Oils, Queensland Ambulance Service, Michael and Cheryl F (our property owners) are all on board so far.

Please lets get everyone on board no matter what club your from, if you have a vintage bike get along and help raise some funds for these folks.

The Qvmx will do their best at putting the best race meet on, all it needs is your support!

Cheers Trev ;D

Great idea Trev, and good luck, I hope the meeting is well supported as I'm sure it will be. Good luck to the riders who race at this meeting as I'm sure it will have a bigger influence than you can imagine.

If at first you dont succeed, give up and drink beer

Cheers DJ

not forgeting our flood victims in Qld, I just cant come to terms with the loss of life in Victoria.

Another major sponsor on board is On Site Rentals.

If anybody has any product they would like to donate to the raffles for the weekend please dont hesitate to contact me.

On a lighter note, I have aquired the services of 4 lovely young ladies ;D

 to sell raffle tickects and take donations from the willing competitors and spectators on the Sunday, so make sure you bring plenty of coins.

Thanks again to all the sponsors and especially MQ for getting on board.

Cheers Trev

I'll throw my hat into the ring T'Rev  should be able to provide a few good prizes for the raffle!  Both my boys are up here and keen for a ride so I'll bring the "Swoppa" (AKA Will) and "Chook" (AKA Mick) down for a ride.  Havn't been to Tambo for a few years looking forward to it.

Big Bill.

Hmmm, I was about to post a few photos of the day but this message appeared:

The upload folder is full. Please try a smaller file and/or contact an administrator.

Same thing I got on Friday. Is this an issue or just me?
My 'upload' was just over 100kb.

Very very hot,very very dusty. I don't know how you guys handled it out there in that heat??? I have put some of the shots up on my site, gives you an idea how dusty it was, in the first half of the day.

Keep Smiling :)
