we won't be going, and although money is a major reason, it's not the only one. (several other logistical difficulties unfortunately)
however as bethwyn said the money to go to tassie for us would, finance the 09 season of mx .
good luck to all that can get there however, and i hope the host club prospers from it too. we will be envious of you all


Lucky or unlucky, Luke was underpaid by his boss for over 6mths.... his back pay??? $2500 was totally unexpected and first suggestion by all was.... Now you can go to the Nats !

Theres more going from WA now than there was a few weeks ago....
Theres heap of excitement and organisation in the air... its nationals time !

I'm going to hate sitting back here getting text messages but we all do what we gotta do Smile

Mate where were you people when we were screaming for information? Now its to late ! nobody is going except for the people who chose not to go to other events. Don't worry I have booked on the boat and accommodation which I will cancel tomorrow. The new Guy at MA Sam Ryan and won't concede on dates and deadlines and benchmarks so be greatful that you got the Nationals for I know NT will never get them. So don't whinge. We chose the Sarfari in front of the Nationals because any rec rider can do . you don't need a wiss bang quad. The ultimate Adventure. You need to serious about putting a event on. It seems like a after though now. yes put your money where your mouth is . organise some sponsors and put the best of the best on the grid. don't whinge at people because they choose another event for 98% of quad riders can only afford one event a year. I know really fast riders that will only ride Finke


Huskygoat, back of the throttle

Actually read the post and you would see the point i make was re people from all over Australia to support events
like Ryan, Chris and Mitch have done for the Joe Bird event
If they didnt turn up it wouldnt have been much of an event
I applaud anyone that travels these vast distances like WA and NT fellows. I am sure there are still more that do as well

This post was designed to get people to support all events, where ever they are not just in peoples back yard. And this means all over Australia

One thing dont let the location of me fool you. That was put on purpose
Now surely you can see that point

The point is as far as I CAN READ is if your going your going, if your not your not, is not from lack of information as we have all been on forums and read all to know that is was being held in Smithton and we all had time to work out whether we were going or not. Those people that have put their hand up to run this event ARE THE ONLY ONES that put thier hand up as no other state nominated - it doesn't matter that the riders have not come to events it matters that SOME-ONE has actually put their hand up to run this event, if they didn't there wouldn't have been a National this year.

2009 was re-opened as only ONE club nominated (the same club that is holding this years). So lets see how many NOW have nominated with the RE-OPENING of the 2009 championship which closed September 2nd 2008.

Support the sport and support the people putting thier necks out to put on these events otherwise we wont have any.




Well said!!!

sorry Blake has pull out this morning as well looks like Stony will be the only one going. Brad Deinhoff broke his wrist at the school so he not going.

The Rules of holding the Nationals 50% of the riders must be local anyway so it will still be a great event.

We are a group of seven coming all the way from Queensland (Central Highlands) to watch the titles and spend a week looking around Tassie. We have yet to book our accommodation in Smithton area for the Titles if anyone can assist. The cheaper the better.

As above.
Looking for accomodation for Fri, Sat & Sun night for the nats.
Possibly 3 people. If anyone from Tassie can give me a link or something for a reasonable place would be great.

We cant put anymore in ours but I will ring a friend that is on the Tuesday night Ferry - Jim Wilson to see if his trailer has a space - what type of bike and I think he may be able to fit a blaster size one in

Cheers
