Tallarook rocks, and welcomes VERi

The vinduro at Tallarook on Sunday 26 May was a huge success with over 70 riders present. The challenging loop was supplemented by a much longer course through the local forest that was open to those with registered bikes. The feedback from everyone who attended was 100% positive, and we hope to hold another event at this location in 2014.

A big thank you is due to the Mitchell Recreational MCC, landowner, local CFA, first aid crew, and various volunteers who made the event happen.

Photos and videos by vinduro enthusiast Chris Koira have already appeared on both the OzVMX and Vinduro forums, so check 'em out!

This was the first event in Australia to be run by the new Vintage Enduro Riders Incorporated (VERi) organisation, which replaces Vinduro Victoria and the Victorian Vinduro Committee. If you'd like an entry form to join this club, drop us a line at vinduro.victoria@gmail.com

2013 Carolinas White Lightning Cross Country Classic

March 16 & 17, 2013 saw the running of the annual Carolinas White Lightning Cross Country Classic at Chester, South Carolina, USA.

The inaugural Carolinas White Lightning Cross Country Classic was launched five years ago by The Blue Ridge Pathfinders Motorcycle Club. Proceeds from the event go to the local Armenia United Methodist Church.

This year’s Carolinas White Lightning Cross Country Classic comprised rounds 2 & 3 of the AHRMA/Penton Racing Products National Cross Country Championship Series. It attracted riders from Alaska, Ontario, Canada, and Texas. They would welcome any international riders who could make it in 2014.

Canowindra vinduro, June 8 - 9

A new event has been provided for the June long weekend following the cancellation of Rockley. The new location is Canowindra, NSW. The event will be run by the Manly-Waringah Motorcycle Club.

It will be a loop of approximately 15 kms. There'll be a canteen selling food, and portable toilets on site.

It will be cold there in June, so perfect riding weather at this venue we're told: "Don’t miss it, its a new location and will be a fantastic ride."

More details on the event and entries coming soon.
