    These events are brilliant, the Yass Vinduro had 80+ riders and a choice of easy or harder loops, the gully was on the more technical one, but nothing too difficult.

    The next event was Canowindra which was almost washed out, six inches of rain leading up to the event, and more during the Saturday and Sunday meant the track was closed on Sunday with more rain forecast.
    Probably a similar number of riders, maybe more.

    Then there was Braidwood, the best Vinduro event I've done so far. 120 was the number being thrown around and no bloody rain!

    Looking forward to the 2017 VTR calendar being finalised, the good news for me is that the majority will be held within a few hours drive, with a couple being about an hour and a half from home.

    Mr Brown, don't muck about, you must attend the holy grail of Vinduro...until you have a Harrow medal, everything else is toy stuff...unfortunately, having a new modern bike (86 model), your out of the running :mad: ...BUT! there is a twin shock wr frame for sale on gummy, you can just drop your 400 motor in and par excellence :thumbsup: . The best bike husky made is yours and you will be eligible to ride the premier event in aus ..the Harrow Vinduro....best get busy, 6 months to go!

    I don't think pete looks very old???
