    Man, that is so tempting. Are you taking the Murdomobile?

    @kiffsta, that MC22 track bike of yours would be fine in a straight line. @ShaneP and a few others might make it a bit of fun for the 2fiftycc crew.

    I have to get my bike to start, first. Then tune the carbs, replace the clutch, convert the rear wheel, and then learn how to do fast starts.

    That's the plan. Probably stay Aratula or somewhere close by so can be at gates when they open.

    Thanks Chris, but with the 'Murdo Mobile' as it's called I can stop anywhere. Want to be there early to get good spot in pits.

    Well talk about clashes. We have an All Bike meet in a couple of weeks at benaraby, same day as the Rocky Swap (huge local swap meet that I'm likely to taking a few bikes to, not just mine). So I thought the Willow Bank one would be fine, it won't clash with the Townsville trip, that'll be the October long weekend. Wrong! Same weekend. Well, I could only afford one at best, anyway, so I'll have to choose. Unless I go to neither. But I could try to combine the Brisbane trip with testing of my bike, if it's ready. But I better check I don't have another clash, as well!

    Wonder if my private jet will be scheduled that weekend :cool:

    CANCELLED. Had an email today saying that due to lack of entrants they have cancelled the all bike day. Bugger, I'm already half packed.

    I had forgotten about it, but my budget wasn't feeling. Or should I say my budget WAS feeling it! I may have bought another bike. Bought it back, actually. At least this one is ready, running and pretty ready for roadworthy.

    Sorry, that's a bit like saying "I have lots of bikes you could have used, but I wasn't offering." If they are running, and I don't have a need, you are welcome to borrow one of mine.

    I will be just getting back from holidays....

    Besides, given my recent record, if I plan to go then it would just get rained out.
