    Well this is something I filmed after the auction, up the hall I think :blink:

    MC Chronic and the two stroke rap song (warning there is some strong language, oh yeah and a sexual declaration about him sleeping with Nickj that I am sure surprises nobody who sees them together :laugh: :sick: )

    Yeah I moved my camp and went for a ride with some mates instead I have some video footage I took I will get posted later. It was wet, slippery and fun :woohoo: I am sure most stayed around the area not all where it was going to happen. The attendance at the hall for the dinner the auctions and presenation of the new King was amazing considering all the dramas and the event being cancelled at the 11th and 7/8s hour.

    The ride had to be cancelled due to problems with getting the permit, most people stayed and camped. Some went riding and the catered dinner for those that remained was moved off-site to private property and was a success by all accounts.

    All the details are in the B/D canned but did you ride thread here

    Obviously Forests NSW have drawn up a last minute “special” permit for us because we don’t fit into any of the categories listed on their website that require a permit and they have waived the 2 – 4 week permit processing period.

    If they think we need a permit I suppose it is best that you have one organised, it just puts a lot of extra pressure on TB and Chris which I don’t think is fair or right especially 2 days out from the event.

    If 50 to 100 people are camping and riding there on the same weekend, but not necessarily together, a permit is not required.

    It sucks that they caught wind of our Birthday Party and felt they had to stick their heads in.

    Yeah but it was great that they waved the 3 week time frame and helped us. The guy I dealt with was fantasic because at that stage it looked like it was off.

    Again let’s have a chat there so we all better understand :)

    How can they enforce us to abide by their permit when we are just a bunch of mates going for a trail ride?

    We are not an official motorcycle club that has membership fees, insurance and indemnity forms.

    I can understand that TB must have been running around in circles all day trying to sort it out, but………………..?

    Matt I know what our saying mate I really do. I would like to shed some light on this with you on Friday mate over the beer I promised you but not here :huh:

    Look forward to catching up especially after today :pinch:

    We found out this morning that we need a permit to trail ride in Sunny Corner forest. TB has been on the phone and email all morning trying to sort it out. Looks like we have the permit now if TB and Chris can get the paper work to Forestry by tomorrow.

    This is now a trail ride with no real set tracks but a good interesting ride should be had by all. There will be plenty of riding for everyone.

    This permit has cost a bit of money and OBT can be fined for not adhering to it, so any UN OBT behavior will not be tolerated. I have spoken to the local Police today and they may pay us a visit. They also said any behavior we are not happy with they are more than happy to sort out for us. They wished us a safe and happy ride and would not like to stand out in the cold, in other words ride safely.

    I hope everyone understands the situation. More will be explained on Friday night and Saturday morning.

    Far out what a bummer!! Scary stuff! TB showed me that you can shatter a snapped off easy out, with a centre punch if you are careful. Once shattered, they come out and you can have another go. That was with a 6mm bolt. In an alloy case be real careful.

    Yeah it can be done and I did show you yes you need a small sharp quality centre punch. A set of good safety glasses. You will need a small magnet and a fine tiny screw driver

    Good luck if you don’t think you can do it get someone that can before you stuff it completely
