Title: POSTPONED 2 the 25th Feb Tanjil Old Banger Ride Pubman Lunch @ Rawson Stockyard
Post by: Willbar on November 16, 2011, 10,55:52 PM
Ok this may just be my first ride back on a dirt bike and the first one for the year so dust of them old bikes and lube the chain and get it out and lets get them dirty and have a few laughs along the way. Since it is a new year we should have some new qualifiers for this catergory but still kick start only.
Level 2 ride Tanjil.
Ok in an effort to get a few more bikes there we have lessoned the age slightly but still no button starts, kick or push only.
Ok this is it the AMTRA Old Banger Duro, Ok one catch you must attend on a registered bike either full or rec reg that is at least 11 years old or older and no electric starters kick or push only ? Not quite Vinduro but AMTRA Old Banger Duro, could be tiring but a good laugh and hopefully not on me. it should be an easy level 2 ride with a good lunch at the pub with plenty of bench racing.
It will be a morning ride with lunch at the pub after.
If you  have a bike of 11 years of age or older then dust her off and give her a service and come and join us for a morning of memories of why we upgrade our bikes.
This is a very social ride, with plenty of stops, and Lunch at the Stockyard Pub @ Rawson after the ride.
If you have not thrown a leg over your old bike for a while stop making excuses and put your name down and come a long for lots of laughs and bull dust stories and remeber why you are in such a great club.
If you want 2 attend this ride I need to know sooner than later so I can book our spot at the Pub.
 
Ok for the ride, this is not a beginners ride but if you have done a few level 1 level 2 AMTRA rides with out to much problems and with good pace you should be fine on this one. Ok this ride will be in a new area for Gary, Tanjil State Forest, meeting point is on the Moe Walhalla Rd opposite Wild Cow Track, Meeting 7.30am for 8.00am start, any questions call me 0477690699. Saturday the 4th and back 2 the cars for 12.30 and into the Pub for 1pm. Rec Reg welcome. Full tank of fuel. Plenty of fluid for hydraition. Nothing too hard a nice cruisy ride with a few small steep ups and downs but mainly open trails and maybe a couple of goat tracks thrown in depending on who comes along.

We should be all packed up, and sitting down in the Stockyard Pub Rawson ,for some serious bench racing by 1pm lunch.

I guess, under the circumstances, you better put me down for this one!

I hope my 33 year old kick start only, cable drum brake Suzuki will suffice!

Looking forward to it.

Maybe Will was implying that it will go great through the water crossings like the PT boats of the same era:

Not everyone wants a 32yo bike - 18yo will do fine for me!

Although I do remember having a lot of fun on my '81 KDX175 many years ago... :D

I won't be fit enough for this ride Will, putting a new/second hand clutch in my old 350 KTM months ago & haven't ridden it since, I was looking forward to this ride to see how it goes, ah well I'll have to wait till the next one.

It's looking like I won't make it either!  A few niggely bits to finalize on the PE, and still have to get the rego sorted.

Put it off for a couple of weeks (so your knee gets fixed) and I'll be in!

Ride Postponed to the Saturday the 25th of Febuary
Im really sorry blokes but I can not yet depend on my left knee holding together if I had to put my leg or foot down so I have to postpone the ride for another couple of weeks which should give Serge a bit more time to be organised and maybe time for frankie to get fixed and me some more time to find a replacement for the XR as the DT turned out to be a bit hot for me to handle. I will put the ride list up as it was so if you are not able to make it then place let me know.

Probably a good move Will - better than chancing injury if you are not yet completely healed.

We wouldn't want you to be out of action for the HTFU ride because of something happening on this one. :)

25th should be fine for me.
