that PE has a lot of WR500 look about it. Doesnt really suit any vintage era/class, but would be a good comfortable ride with a bullet proof and reliable motor that can sure mix it with the 400/450 modern 4 strokes.

is that a hydraulic clutch on it?

Looks like a great event guys, glad it all went well. I'd reckon the road race numbers must have been down severely as I'm just back from the Barry Sheen Festival of Speed at Eastern Creek and there must have been 250 plus entrants with a shit load more bikes. The quality of the bikes and the racing was superb. Why do MA do things like clashing 2 major events?

Yes Leith it is a hyd' clutch. i spoke to the owner and he built it as in his words " i wanted the best bike, so i made one". yes you are right, it does not fit any era but he has it registered and uses it as a trail bike.

How was the racing. ?
Alison

 no racing at all, it was a demo day social event only, it is purely geared to get old bikes out of sheds. a great concept i reckon all disciplines at one venue. i rode the MX track but i wanted to spectate as well but could not cover it all. lots going on in other areas.

there was road racing solo & sidecar, Vinduro, trials, speedway solo & sidecar, Dirt track, US style flat trackers ,MX solo & sidecar pre 65 -> pre85.

I missed you at the Creek today Magoo, court up with Browny, Mr Austin and Jonathon who was racing that 62 model 250 Italian bike thing, what else I even scored a tropy in the show & shine with the Cooper MX

the lastest on gator is he's broken upper and lower tibia and smashed his knee(again)

Spew !! Bad luck Gator, jeez mate you've had some pretty ropey luck with the old injuries, hang in there son. Thanks Paul for the update. Re the MA situation, with Drakie taking up the cause the Broady event was always a chance to go well, he's got a habit of getting the message around. But roadrace-wise, surely going up against the Barry Sheene Memorial at EC was always going to be a gamble. I couldn't go, but have heard that Stu Avant, the Sayle brothers, Kork Ballington, Graeme Crosby, Dave Hiscock and plenty of others have been spotted in the pits, meanwhile at Broady the 1969 world 250 champ Kel Carruthers was scheduled to demo the 1960 Honda 250 four, with the chance to see John Woodley on his RG500, Rod Tingate on the Konig, etc. Why would you clash them ? Historic roadrace fans must be gnashing their teeth.....or gums, anyway....

Thats shit luck,   Gator was as keen as mustard on Sat morning, just got his RM g/ box sorted, arrived before the gates opened ready for a great weekend and went down badly on his first session, Hope the leg repairs go well mate.

[mxmaniac]

Thats not good for the gator, what a pitty .  Rossco, when u speak to gator, wish him well from the Bakers and if there is anythin we can do to help, dont be shy.

Allison spot on with the Hoony call. Fella in the the blue jacket is Geoff Morris aka  Mr GMC or Geoff Morris Concepts, other bloke in black shirt with Speedway Sidecar Racers Association Victoria (SSRaV) insignia is a waste of air space and also may be typing this....   My best wishes for a speedy recovery to Gator.
