Registrations are extremely slow this year.

So, grab your firends, a trailer for your scoots, a vehicle that can tow it and petrol (cheap right now) and register before the end of the month or sooner as this mighty challenge will be cancelled if there are not 50 participants.

It's a worthwhile cause, a great weekend, a challenging ride with plenty of breaks for "Bums & Tums" that even 70+ year olds can achieve and it would be a shame to see it go "tyres up".

I wont be there for this one. Hopefully if I dont sell the scooter in the next week or two, it will get traded.

I cant think of anyone dumb enough to give me their scoot to thrash to bits over that weekend.

Apologies for the tardy reply, family funerals to get through. Sorry you can't make it this time, but you have sure done your part in the last ones and that has been appreciated.
Enjoying your travel recounts on here. Hope all goes well with the new ventures.
Cheers, Glen

I've got 7 confirmed and another 3 maybe's if they can arrange scoots.

Will register as a team as soon as I got all the numbers in.

That's great news,

cut off date is end of Feb though. Fingers crossed enough folk will register by then.
Cheers, Glen

Pleased to see you made it, thank you. A bit slower than your other bikes huh? At least this time it was great weather and from all accounts, another hardy bunch made it, with few break downs.
