Ok, if it was Ross Drinkwaters bike, it was never owned by Russell Josiah, the bike owned by Russell was sold to Kevin Grey & you have that motor!

maybe, but my role is rock up, do some 'work' and when the flag drops at the end of the day roll on home, it's the months of work involved to get it done and the time after that needs to be noted.

I'm hoping some sort of filming was done there Spyda, a few people have asked what went on down there.
Seeing and chatting to older guys would have been good over a beer. (or six).

Mr bucketracer slung a go pro on Jake Lewis and the 750rr looking back, might be some good footage when he started at the rear of the pack on race four. Will see if he is obliging to chuck it up here in the next day or three...

Was an amazing weekend that will be difficult to top , huge thanks to the 50 odd officials and flaggies we had helping each day , the CAMS committee, Mike Pero, the sponsors , the Aussies and everyone else who did their bit to make it special.
And of course the riders who raced hard and stayed on their bikes..... mostly.

A 30min Doco was commissioned by Mike Pero, hope to see that on TV in the near future and DVD copies could be a possibility.

As above the entire very cool presentation from Sat night was recorded, Paul Treacy is editing and will send me the youtube link

Will post the professional shots on Facebook later in the week

Cheers

Here is the link to the Video from Saturday night book launch. Magic meeting to ride down to and catch up with old mates and make some new ones. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Yoi8nDLJvE&t=112s oh by the way it is about 2hours long but well worth it to watch.
