    Thread Starter: F5 Dave

    Sorry in advance to those experiencing inclimactic weather. But Dogam! It is the perfect day to paint or trim trees or wash the car. Don't do any of those things. Don't even call a friend. Just get out there and ride while you can. You don't work all week to mow the lawn. I'm not...

    I have a bike I have now done just over 3000km on. The front brake makes a groaning noise, when under a bit of pressure. I know I can pull the pads for a clean, chamfer the leading edge and put some anti squeal stuff in there but I may as well upspec the pads if I am going to do that? Anyone...

    Hi all. Just a catch up. We are still alive and kicking but Vicki is now rather disabled and really only understands half of what she hears. Thankfully she's still fit and active and gets around. Her Frontotemporal Dementia (semantic) is really starting to bite hard. However its been...

  • AMCC Club Round - Hampton Downs, 17 Oct: Under threat of being called off

    Gidday All,
    This is an "All Hands On Deck" call to all you that are contemplating racing at the above meeting...

    If you are thinking of entering but haven't got around to it - it's now time to "Pull Finger" & do so

    At this stage of the game the meeting is under real threat of being called off due to a serious lack of confirmed entries

    The R.R.C have made significant efforts to gather input from you "The Riders" in as far as what classes you'd like to see racing, what entry fee's you'd be prepared to pay, the layout of the programme to best allow those of you who want to X enter to do so...

    And yet to date entries in all classes have been absolutely bl**dy dismal...

    In fact the only class that has achieved the minimum grid requirement is the "Side Car's"

    The Club has undertaken a serious financial committment to bring this & further rounds at Hampton Downs to you, so it's now up to you lot to show your support / appreciation by playing the game & getting entered

    The sooner the better people because a decision will be being made shortly...

    Those of you with any questions are welcome to PM me or check the clubs Facebook page (I don't belong to Facebook so cannot provide a link)

    You can get your entry forms here http://www.amcc.org.nz/updates-events

    Cheers

      My understanding is numbers are "getting there" and with the usual last minute rush we should be ok.

      However the cut off for pre entry is still a couple of days away (Thursday) and the call will be made then.

      So logic should tell us we will know on Friday, I will try and get the answer up on here Friday anyway.

      Right, sounding positive.

      If I were to come along and watch what are the Practice times and Racing?

      Should I bring my Paddington Bear lunch box or are the selling pies?

      Any idea on entry cost?

      Yep see below (been trying to do some work at work, silly me ha ha)

      Yes the meeting is on

      Sign on & scrutineering is from 7:30
      Riders briefing 8:45
      practise starts 9:15

      I dont know the order or the class numbers.

      Usual request is to get there and set up nice and early, it makes for a much smoother start to the day.

      Thaks for everybodys efforts in making this event happen
