Rockley (NSW) Vinduro, May 26 - 27

The Manly-Warringah Motor Cycle Club will hold a Vinduro / Poker Run at Rockley on the weekend of May 26 - 27, 2012.

The entry form is now available, and details of the event can be found on the ozvmx forum, or the Manly-Warringah Motor Cycle Club website.



HBBB changes cut off, but Vic vinduros remain pre '85

The Motorcycling Australia (MA) Museum and Heritage Committee has decided to change the eligibility cut-off date for motorcycle entries for the 2013 HBBB. It will be the same 25-year rolling date as applied to Club Permit Registered motorcycles.

More details are available here.  

This change does not apply to Victorian vinduros. They will continue to be run on the existing Pre '85 format.

Vinduro bikes at the 2012 Kenda Rally

As expected this popular rally was fully subscribed, and a full complement of 500 riders was on hand to tackle the challenging conditions. Naturally it was mostly late model bikes, but a handful of brave souls took up the invitation extended by the ADMCC, and entered this event on vinduro bikes.

Drakie picked up a prize for piloting his 1979 SWM around both loops (something about oldest combined age of bike and rider). Darren was also there on an XR200 and Alex on his PE400. There was at least one other pre 85 XR200 too.

A special mention must go to Brendan who gamely piloted a 1973 Yamaha AT3 (125cc) around the first loop. The bike was in very original condition, and even had dual purpose tyres on it.

The rally was well organised, and enjoyed by all. The ADMCC will also be hosting the Sawmill Rally later in the year.

Take the HBBB survey

In the afterglow of this year’s successful Honda Broadford Bike Bonanza we’d like to get some feedback about the event. Could you take a few minutes to fill out this survey and send it onto anyone else that you know went to it; or more importantly someone who has been previously but didn’t go this year.

This means that bikes will need to be registered and all riders licensed.

The entry form will be issued to everyone on our  mailing list soon.

HBBB a winner!

The Honda Broadford Bike Bonanza was a great success. Many vinduro fans enjoyed the two loops on offer both days, as well as the huge variety of other activities that were available.
