    Rusty Nuts?

    Does anyone know if the club's folded? I know of a couple of riders (including me) who haven't had replies to emails, and there seems to be some talk of a Lee meltdown at Southern Cross time. It'd be good to hear from one of the Rustys about what's going on.

    Good question. Team Hitcher is all paid up in readiness for this year's Grand Challenge, but word from the Nutters is getting fewer and further between.

    Lee sent out an email earlier this year I think? Stating the GC is on etc.

    Bit wary myself, so I'm adopting a wait and see approach, as we've heard nothing about the 25th video that was supposed to be made, rides being cancelled when riders were en-route to it etc...

    Unhappy

    I thought Rod Coe's comments in the Bikerider mag (June 2013) were spot on. What happens to $13500 of entry fees?? I wont trust my money to the Rusty Nuts any more.

    Entry forms for the Chatto Creek 1000 will be out in September. As usual it will be the first weekend in December.

    Can you move that to a date shortly after the TT2000. Cheers, thanks.

    Before doesn't work, as Paeroa street racing is on.

    Too true. Still waiting for year bar, extension patch & vid, from 2011 GC.

    Haven't heard a thing from this year's SX, which is odd as that includes no blogs or Ride Reports?

    I occasionally remember I haven't heard anything from the Rustys, or anybody, then forget all about it again.

    I recall getting the Newsletter, but lost 3 months of in box so have no details re dates, cost etc to enter even if I was inclined to do so.

    At this stage I'm waiting...but being careful not to hold my breath.

    Last emails 6, 8, 13 of December 2012 (that I received anyway).

    Entry forms on 6th, Trumpet on 8th, then mention of email issues on 13th and update on entries for SCRR and GC.

    We have wondered the same,as there seemed to be alot of avoidance on the topic when it was rasied iin Bluff.
    I do fail too see where our rego cost went,considering they indicated they had 90 bikes registered,and $150/rider plus $90/pillon sure adds up..

    However we did enjoy the event,but if they can't afford the badges they should just say so..as its not the first time where people haven't recieved badges when they have been told they would recieve a badge.

    Me too - and a mug for #10. Don't want it all to be over...

    May have to go South if there's no GC this year...
