    The Hastings Valley MCC are holding a 4 hr Pony Express on November 16. It would be great to get an OLD bull team together to race in it. You can go Iron man or ride it with a partner.Day licences are available for $55 and entry is $35.
    I am thinking about partnering with Moose for it on his YZ125!!Or my 05 YZ250F if it is here in time.Or maybe Moose and I should enter on our BRP’s.:unsure:
    Speak up if interested.

    If I’ve got a trailer and towbar sorted by then I could be keen. I would like a pertner though. I’ve never raced before and the ironman sounds scary!

    Iron man means just that, it is ball breaking stuff.Especially if the day is hot. They usually get about 150+ riders to race. You can use two bikes or your partner and you can share one.
    I wouldn’t be suprised to see Aussie off road champ Chris Hollis race on the day.

    I’ll do my best on the towbar/trailer thing. I’m about 80% chance at the mo’ which isn’t too bad. I was 5% chance for riding this weekend and now I’m going out :)

    Unless one of the Sydney boys partners up with me and I can blag a ride up if I don’t get my own shit sorted.

    Nah TB, it is a proper race. A club day none the less, but a few sheep stations could be on the line.

    Mac, it is about an 8 km loop through medium to tight single trail, trough loamy She oak scrub then up the side of a bit of a rocky hill through a hardwood forest, nothing really gnarly. It is the same track they held round 2 of the Aussie off road series this year on. It is like a tag team event with a Le Mans start where You and your partner go lap for lap for four hours. Yet someone like you Mac, would probably be considering going for the Ironman title and riding the full four hours on your own.:woohoo:
    As I said it is a club day,so only a few guys really take it serious, last year some guys were dressed as fairies with pink wings and all. I have never raced it but have been the sweep rider for the last 3 events.

    If I do that ride on that date I will need you to be more of a partner than you will I think want to be! See thats Salina’s birthday and even though when I mentioned it, it was rubber stamped go I think maybe not, also I think we have Chad Reed’s super X in Wollongong that sat night

    Hey mick the riders that are not members of Hastings club will have to join on the day and I have been unofficially told that there will be day memberships or substantially cut price memberships as a way to help out as it is in November and only 2 months of the 12 months are all that’s left of the yearly membership period.

    That’s right I forgot that they have to join the club as well, so In all reality, the cost is around $100 to compete if you don’t have a MA national license. That right Dave?
