ok ,so I talked to Steph at Manfeild today....
they are happy to run the long track for bikes all day with our volunteers as long as the weather plays ball and its not too dangerous to ride the long track.

Thank you all for volunteering! If you have volunteered to marshall the AM, please report to outside the Park office at 8:45am for the marshall meeting.
This is the list i have so far:
AM:
Toast
Scratcha
Luke/AJTurbo
Clivoris
Duke Girl

PM:
Leong
Duckaddict
AJTurbo/Luke
Duke Girl
Korea

Thank you all very much! PM me if you have any queries... and i'll drop you my cell number if you need it too.
cheers!

Hi all,
I have just received a request from Manfield to post a notice here. They have today realised that the extension has already been booked for friday morning. This means that it will only be available during the afternoon. Nicksta, she did say that she has been trying to get hold of you. I don't know what this will mean for those of us volunteering. Personally, I will want time on the long track rather than flag marshalling, But I am bringing Str8jacket up now and she can shave her head and stand in for me.
Steph from Manfield was extremely apologetic about how this has gone down.

**Nicksta** · 16th August 2007, 14:09

Hi All,

have just been advised my manfeild that the 1.5km extension is booked for the morning! So they will be running the Short track in the AM and long track for PM only. This will be from lunch (1pm ish) on.

If you are happy to volunteer the PM, please see the park people at lunch time. I wont be there first thing, but definately by lunchtime.

thank you all for your help!

**EDIT: thanks Clivoris, was at physio

got the message from Steve tho...

**Str8 Jacket** · 16th August 2007, 16:14

Yep, im coming along and im happy to do whatever is needed of me. If im not needed then I will just sit somewhere and eat pies....

**Nicksta** · 16th August 2007, 23:40

lol... thanks everyone again... i'll be driving down very early tomorrow so i can make it by lunch.

report time to Manfeild office is 12pm for those of you awesome volunteers.....

see you tomorrow!

**Meekey_Mouse** · 18th August 2007, 21:35

Thanks for organizing/helping to organize the long track Nicksta... was REALLY good

**Nicksta** · 19th August 2007, 17:40

no probs chick.....

Big thank you to all that marshalled for us....
even though i only made it for one session

was great to sight the track.... thanks heaps for braving the rain while i was there to look out for us crazy riders in the rain....

dear i say we may need people to help next month on the test day before the 2 day event.... i really appreciate the volunteers taking time off and helping us....

HUGE THANKS!

**Leong** · 19th August 2007, 17:47

It was quite fun marshalling, especially from the hairpin... where I did one session. Great view not only of that corner but the rest of the track as well. Luckily, apart from one bird kill, there were no incidents for us to deal with.... even in the damp conditions... thanks to you guys!!

So if you can volunteer for the next one, it really is worthwhile!
