Camden Show and Shine - who's in?

[4RoBs]

Haven't been here for a while and look what's top of the list when I do. Thank you. We wanted to visit and meet everyone this weekend, but we just can't get there on the current budget.
Everyone have fun and enjoy it. If anyone has a video camera we'd love to see some of the "action". Thanks Magoo and all the helpers and participants.


Not sure what happened at the end of the thread? But Ted can I give you a call to say thanks?

[PJR]

Magoo...DEFINE " Lets get as many of you PUNTERS and your bikes over to............" your words not mine

We  ( the punter ) may not be INDUSTRY related like the afore mentioned but WE will come and WE will give for a fallen mate

Without " US PUNTERS " there would be no VMX

We are participants in a sport....like yourself....nothing more .....nothing less

Maybe next time  " Lets get as many PARTICIPANTS / FELLAS and your bikes over to..... 

Looks like we've got a new member of the Forum Police Patrol. Just when I thought things were returning to normal!
I look forward to Saturday.

OK...I`ll clear it up

I think that the term punter is derogatary to use when appealing for people to attend a charity/fundraising event...thus my post

Alison took exception to my post and responded and i replied. I wish to publicly say sorry to Alison

RED DEVIL...Definitely not a Forum copper and like yourself i am also looking forward to tomorrow and to helping somebody less fortunate than ourselves.

If you still do not have a big table my truck is available

[magoo]

All I'm going to say about this one is I've never known anyone to take exception to being called a punter, how the fork is that a derogatory term. If that was the worst thing I've ever been called I'd be a happy man. I think it is rediculous that even when we are all pulling together to help a mate out someone finds something to be negative about, I don't get it.

[Evil Rudy]

Magoo you're such a punter.

[E74]

I'll be punting my way down there for a jolly good punt , cause I'm a happy and proud punter, and boy 'o' boy do I enjoy a farking good PUNT!

[Snowy 76]

A customer or client, a member of a audience, a prostitutes`s client, a point in faro? Hope you all had a great day.

Punt that ball

Punter Pointing

Catch the

Im going to punt that pro ( PUNT  PUNT    PUNT      PUNT    PUNT     PUNT) Gotta love that punting

When you think about it , this a Very under rated word .

[ted]

I achieved what i intended from the start and that was to keep THIS thread at the top of the charts.

Who in their right mind would question the integrity of the organiser of such an event.

The best advertising is controversy

Lets go punters one and all

[BJJ]

I wasn't able to make it,  as I had someone picking up a bike,  but if anyone is onsite or already arrived home and can post some ammatuer pics would be great!  (by ammatuer,  I mean I guess the organisers may have photo rights, no offense intended) Cammos

[E74]

I was there but I got too drunk to take any photo's... , Thanks Ted...

Husqvarna 360 viking takes major prize in show and shine.

the owner breezes in ten minutes before judging and scopes the prize , you gotta love those Huskies.

Lots of very nice bikes on show.

Bike of the day (IMHO) apart from the Husky was a 1979 yz 250 yamaha. (very low use and very nice)

The day finished with some Refreshments at the Narrellen hotel  .

[ted]

Listen up all you punters

What a great effort from the VMX community. Although low in bike numbers ( 30 / 40 ) the quality of material was first rate. XR 75, tt, cooper, yamaha, cr, yz, mugen, ducati,ossa,cz,beta,norton,husky

The hat was passed around and everybody gave their all

The passing public that dropped in were impressed with what they saw and the guys i spoke with were either restoring or keen to get contact numbers for their bits
 
After proceedings we adjourned to the local to shoot the breeze with Magoo, Ken , EEAW, Rob, Mr Upstate, Firko and mate and Mr Cooper ( sell me one of your hoard ) apologies to those i missed. I`m sure if Magoo didn`t have to go and get messy in the city tonight he would have blown the top off a few more. We also learnt that there is a guy in western sydney ( that chucks wheelstands ) that has 2 trophys that don`t belong to him...haha.What a story

I also learnt Darren cannot say no to a schooner

[ted]

I took a pic of every bike in attendance, i can put them onto my laptop but i don`t know how to post them. If anyone in the Penrith/ Camden area can do it i will bring my laptop out to them so as they can put them up for us
