    Fairs fair eh. I'm sure you kissed hers better when she had a broken arse last year.

    Some good footage in there mate. Although it needs captions - close up of a hay bale, litre bikes are for the talentless etc

    You will just have to bring Nicki and her bike down too Hell yea a lot of orgainising
    I didn't have to do much except turn up to help, but some of the main guys and girls
    take a lot of their own time off work and put in a lot of hrs behind the scenes. But it is soo worth it, to have such a great event happening down here!

I was able to hobble in the ambulance despite them wanting me to stay still. I'm still stiff and sore now with a swollen/bruised tail bone, knee and inner thigh. (i have some on board footage of this will post up soon)

    My bike come off very well with only a broken clutch so i thought bugger it ill keep racing. Restart first race and i got the lead only this time i couldn't hold it three bikes go past and i just follow them, i look back and see a large gap so just sit there to take a sore forth,
    So ..... This will be you ... ???
