No,I think it folded around 97,the bloke who owned the place died,lack of organizers,insurance you know how it goes and the end result was that it ended,I loved it up there,best terrain that I have ridden or raced on and the other blokes that came from away to race reckoned the same.
Where are you now,where do you ride.

I probably raced up there at the same time as you,rode a 94 husky 360 for a round as our 410;s were late arriving into the country,raced out of coffs for Bisho’s,the 360 was a hoot,never seen many of them though,Tim Billings from dorrigo used to pedal one pretty well,are you still in the navy,if you are must nearly run the show by now.

Ah Chris, now guys remember I posted an article talking about the type of person that would hang crap on your ride (being my XR) Chris was one of them, see before the four day Chris was one of the people that told me it was to heavy, too old etc When I went to cape york Chris also told me the 600 was too heavy etc, for as long as I have known Chris he has been handing out lots of friendly advice but I have never seen him ride? Everytime I stopped at his work too see his boss which is quite alot, Chris was good enough to tell me about me bike. I raced the Nulla series for a couple of years with Crash but never saw him there it was just as I was getting to know Chris so in fairness to him I would have missed him.
So I stopped at Chris’s place of work on Tuesday and handed out some flyers, the young blokes out the back tell me they are going out riding this weekend end to Taylors Arms and Chris is going with them and that (this bit surprised me :ohmy: ) Chris has been talking his shit up regarding the ride. Watch those young blokes!

Look forward to you coming for a ride, although a rego’ed bike would help! But would like to ride with you so you could teach me and the BRP the error of my ways lol, nah Welcome mate, will talk on my way back down the coast, if the young blokes havent sorted you out

Thank’s Mick,well,well,well is that the sound of a violin I hear………….no it’s just Greg whinning mate the world is not against you,hey how ya going champ jesus you have sailed into me a bit what about being nice to the new guy:),make me sound bad.
Now I never said anything bad about he big 650 just surprised that you got one(and how much you paid for it),and a little friendly ribbing never hurt,…………or so I thought, you know that a pea can be pushed up a hill with your nose but there are easier ways to get it there that’s why I was surprised that you never got a more enduro orientated bike that’s all.As for friendly advise mate your call,Im no world beater and at the end of the day advise in worth what you paid for it if you know better:).Now you obviously think that you should remember me or my capabilities from doing the Nulla events,I haven’t missed to many of them and I cant remember you there either………..how did you go…………a quick look over your shoulder at the trophy cabinet will give an indication;),I dont want to enter into a pissing contest.was not why I joined so it’s all gooooooood.
The young fellas think that the old bloke wont last the day ha what would they know,most of them think a good ride is doing 100km of dirt road in top gear!!!!!bring on the single track and they love the banter about showering me with rocks and such ,we will see……….hope I dont hurt myself,I hate pain:(.Greg I would be glad to give you a lesson……..but you cant be told anything…and you wont listen:).
Mate the rego thing is a worry,got the wrong bike but wanted something that I could race motox,dirt track and maybe an enduro on and so now I have a yz450 not real smart for the trailrides,anyone got a 03,04,05 WR yammie frame laying around…..I have a plan…… seriously!!
Has anyone had much to do with the Moto-oz tyres,might get a set but a bit pricey,
anyway nice to meet you all…..this could be fun.

Chris.

Hey Chris, they are pretty rare but if you can find one you should get a YZ250WR. A road registerable YZ Would cover all of your needs provising you don’t go beach racing every weekend.

Welcome to the site, looks like you and TB need to get a ride going on….

Jesus chris it wasnt an attack! hey its all good, it was friendly banter, have to be thick skinned here, no awards from nulla as we drank to much piss and ran amuck, and had a ball.
Take nothing to heart and its good talking it up with the young blokes, gives them something to aim up at :laugh: I know you can pedal was just giving a bit back is all, good on ya

Give them heaps on sunday and remember we heal slower now mate
