    Well, I managed to get this far without beer would you believe it? Had a look for six sided sockets but had none of the bastards hence resorting to the vice grips.

    After a bit of a sit down I went back t it with the vice grips only to make those edges smoother.

    I don’t think an ezi-out will do, there’s a mesh screen behind that nut.

    What tool do you have for that job TB?

    We came across 4 bogans on the Rd who looked very dejected, they had just been pinged by some rangers for unrego bikes and also camping illegally all up about $600 each in fines:blink: F#@k that! I will pay my $300 bucks a year rego and camp at the Pines if I have to.

    Ollie

    What is camping illegally?I’ll have to look into it but I thought you could pretty much camp anywhere that wasn’t restricted by signs…and I’ve seen few no camping signs? Can you elaborate Ollie?

    I like GT ute ads…but I’d hardly call this boke adamant that his was genuine…after all he went to the trouble of quoting the compliance plate codes (which I couldn’tbe arsed looking up but did notice he didn’t quote a JG33 anywhere!)

    And moto, if the motor’s sideways…it’s a haridresser’s car. No question!

    Erm if it’s privately owned, whether or not people used it prior, the owner has everyright to fence it.Anyone cutting fences in any circumstances other than an emergency should have their scrotums tensioned using the same wire!

    Also, anyone riding unreg in that area should expect a present. (yes I know it’s the bush and I’m aware of all the arguments for riding unreg in the bush but tough sh1t, it’s the rules. Get it or risk getting pinged.)

    I’d stop whining and get over it. When someone buys the land I ride on ‘ll find somewhere else. I WONT cut their fences ’cause I know what I’d do if I caught someone cutting mine;)

    Holy Crap what a raucus, we just asked for a hand people there was no intention to cause a stir and to be honest we didn’t expect it, I personally have probably spent over 100hours working on this site and I have never benefited in any financial way nor will I ever, nor will I ever be in the running for any prizes etc as part of the admin team. If anything I have suffered financially for the good of the site. If you can’t or don’t want to donate that is not a problem if you can then great.

    That will be all from me on this subject except thank you to those that have decided to support us in whatever way you can/have/will wether it be financial, organisation, labour, input, jokes, prize donations etc, or just being online enjoying the banter.

    Regards

    In the scheme of things (internets-wise) I think this ‘raucous’ was pretty lame. I’d have not called it a ‘raucous’. What we have here, if I may place things into a bit of perspective, is one of our founding members on behalf of the Admin group making a plea for funds to keep the site running as a result of bandwith increases. I know bugger all about the internets and can’t see the benefit of the increase, but I digress. Then we had some people express their opinions and offer ome advice. (I may have even been one of that lot but I couldn’t be arsed scrolling back to see.) Then some got a little bit of sand in their vaginas about those people expressing their opinions. Now really, this is the internets, with real people on the other sides of those screens and the unfortunate fact is they all hold opinions and sometimes they express them. Getting sand in one’s vagina about people expressing an opinion contrary to your own is like not possessing a passport…and worrying about the weather forecast in Japan!

    I’m okay with the initial request and my question about tax deductions was tongue in cheek. Do I have any suggestions? Well, not really. Aside from either seeking funds from members or advertisers I reckon the team would be scratching for ideas. That’s it I guess. Either the members shell out , advertisers/sponsors shell out or the whole thing folds.

    I think, personally, incorporating the Old Bulls would be a mistake opning a whole new can of worms. (I hte the Incorporation Act!!!)

    WillI donate/join as a member? Probably, but the general populace will not know about it if I choose to do so.

    This is clearly a case of people making a bigger mole hill out of a mole hill:laugh:

    Perhaps this threa should have been locked immediately after TB’s request?

    That’s all I have to ay about that…:huh:
