Who's going this year?
Who's going this year?
I'll be going but anything can happen between now and then
I'm thinking of hiring a Hiace Commuter bus and driving down(fuck doin 5000k's in 7 days on my bike).Havnt done any homework on figures yet but should work out pretty cheap between 14 punters + ya can drink piss all the way if ya not the nominated driver.If any1's keen,speek up and i'll get the ball rolling.
I never thought of you as the deep thought type Davo.
TTTT I'm fuxing impressed. The last three years I've supplied the car and done most of the driving. You doing pickups in Sydney? Where you thinking of staying?
Cowes caravan park is only a short walk up the beach into town.
i'll do pickups anywhere on the way mate,just gota fill a 14 seater.havnt made any accom enquiries yet,but sounds like you got a few idea's being a seasoned campaigner.will wait till a few more punters speek up before wasting my time.
I'm riding down this year with Terry and a couple of other guys. First offer I got so I took it. We have accomodation booked but I have no idea where except it's near a pub.
I can highly recommend the Trackside Campground for accommodation, just like a BIG rally vibe (burnouts aplenty, Stones bombs, fireworks, donuts, pissed nude blokes doin laps/skids/fallin off, rock/blues bands, slab sales, food vans, firewood sales, slack security & a special for this year, a mini replica racetrack right in the middle!, rides, clowns, face painting for the kids & much, much more - what more could you ask for? ........ Oh, yeah......chicks I s'pose - bit light on for them [V])
I used to stay in Cowes for years until the Fun Nazis stepped on all the good bits, best of both worlds is camping trackside & scoot into Cowes on Fri & Sat nights, get a feed, go to the pub for a few, see what's happening (bit quiet these days) hang around a bit if it looks promising and/or head back to the track the back way, (Shano & I know all the side streets & back roads from years of experience dodging Coppers half pissed) there's always somethin goin on in the campground, even at 3am.
Foxy's Hawaiian shirt crew are good for a laugh, complete with inflatable palm trees deckchairs & even their own beach! motorised tents cruising around, blokes with pool tables & swimming pools in their campsites, you name it.
Only bikes & tents are allowed into the Trackside but for campervans (& Gibbo's 60 ft luxury Winnebago) you camp in the Highside campground which is only a 2 min stagger away (if you don't fall in the big ditch)
Motels & caravan parks are for poofs. [:0]
& if Casey keeps riding the way he did tonight, it'll be Fucking Huuuuge! []
I'll be going again,(dunno who with yet).
Tonights race was fucking great. Anyone riding down from/through sydney?
more titanium than my bike
Move aside Valantino, here comes Stoner. What a great race he had. Pity about the last lap but his riding confidently.
I was just talking to my brother about this and he reminded me it's a month early this year...so it's going to be fuxing cold in that part of the world.
I`LL BE THERE
JOB or NO JOB they can get F[}][B)][V][8][}][:0]ED [:X]
Dont know how i`ll get there but i`ll BE there

Count me in. i will be camping this year and cant wait. was a great race last night but that last lap move was more predictable than something that is really precdictable.
mind you great effort for the youngster.
a champion in the making.
Maybe we should organise some ASF Drizabones...quote:Originally posted by turbokat

I'll be there as well, hoping to do the Barry Sheene run also, anyone else interested?
Did you lot watch the 250 race, 280ks on the grass after rear ending another bike, sounds like something Chalky might do.
LOL,
That was the most amazing "crash" I've ever seen, the whole race was an edge of the seat job.
That circuit in Turkey seems to be a good equaliser, lots of close racing in all the classes.
Me and my Hawaiian shirt will be there as usual.
Any interstaters that need a roof over there head before Thursday, I'll be happy to oblige.
Speaking of crashes.....let's see if we can take out another 916!!!!!
Oh yeah, there'll be more that just a moving tent this year too, but it's top secret, not even I know what it is.
There was some guys in Hawaiian shirts fishing for girls with a dildo on a fishing line last year...
Anything to do with you Foxy?
Hooligan, we shold be passing through that way mate. I'll let you know where and when when I find out.
