Instead of flooging the guts out of the watagans, going around and around the same tracks till we all lose the place for good, why dont you come and do some decent tight single trail around Orange Old Man. Step outside your comfort zone? Maybe come up to Wauchope and race the pony express with the rest of us?

Nah give up racing a few years ago now,no fun anymore.
Im discovering new tracks every time I go into the Watagans and theyre not all flogged out. Although Orange does sound intersesting in the Pine forests. I will have to organise a ride up at Dungog with some of the local legendsB)Ollie
Yeah no dramas, but my point is the watagans are over populated and being flogged to death, it is over ridden and NO ONE IS DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT, it will be ridden and flogged to death, the same tracks are being ridden I read the reports here and elsewhere, the tracks are being used to get to and from the so called new tracks to us that are old tracks to somebody else.
I don’t have the fix, but I have ridden there for 20 years and it is in a shocking state that cant be argued, the only thing that I can do is spread my riding around rather then there every weekend. Yeah that means I have to spend more time in the car but so be it. We will lose the Watagans at this rate and we will only have ourselves to blame.Down of the soap box now, its only my opinion also, and I am just saying is all

May 13, 2009 at 8:22 pm #133586Firstly I’d like to say a big thank you to everyone who has already donated
Your contribution is greatly appreciated and you can rest assured that the funds will be put towards the operating costs of the site and keeping the OBT spirit alive.
It is clear that there are a lot of passionate and generous people here at OBT and most of you have had your chance to express your opinions and views on how we can keep things growing and moving forward. For that, we thank you too, because without you OBT wouldn’t be what it is today.
The admin team have had in depth discussions regarding how we continue through 2009 and beyond and we have taken aboard all the valid comments that have been raised in this thread. With this in mind we have decided that for the foreseeable future site donations will be the way in which we can generate sufficient revenue to cover our financial responsibilities.
Lastly, I would like to add that you do not have to donate anything if you choose not to or are not in the financial position to do so. Please note however that we are still accepting donations now and in the future and your donation however small lifts some of the burden off of TB & Chris who, to date, have kept the site running out of their own pockets. Donations can be made as per the first post in the thread.
Donations can be made by bank transfer to the account below:

AnonymousJust an idea which may of already been raised in previous posts (but considering I am a lazy bastard and dont want to go back through the thread) is it possible for us to have a “charity” auction at the Xmas show?
I know auction items would have to be found, beg, borrowed or stolen:dry:. Or if everyone brings something with them of a nominal value or sponsers could donate something and wait till everyones been on the piss and start the bidding. Could be a bit of fun and usally with charity auctions the cause will get more for the item than what it’s worth.
Only an idea to help the cause and I am not looking to be shot down by people that have had no idea’s so far. I dont care about the legal / morol problems that such an idea has eiher.
May 14, 2009 at 8:07 am #134166I reckon thats a great idea and will fly it by Chris
May 14, 2009 at 8:38 am #134168Yep agreed DanD good Idea,
Chris

AnonymousWell if the charity auction does go ahead I have an idea of something that I would like to contribute. It is something that will be unique and something that cant be purchased from a shop. I will leave it at that.
