Be advised the Jimmy Aird/VMX component of the weekend has hit a snag, Jim's mum is crook and he can't make it, so the WHOLE motocross has been canned ! If you couldn't find a local legend to fill in, or an Aussie equivalent who'd come for the weekend for the cost of a plane fare and a few beers, I'd be astonished. How hopeless...:angry:

This is a crying shame,i've scored me a 1973 TS 400 (slightly TM'd-up,ie all the road shit junked)for the express purpose of entering these old meetings and having a blat round on a old skool bike.
Have been recently informed however that the TS 400 has the distinct honour of holding the 'worse handling off-roader ever' title...is this true?Can anyone confirm?

If so then bring it on I say,the hairier the ride then the greater the satisfaction of surviving haha.
3rd round of vintage MX this weekend so I will quickly find out.
