Is anyone doing the Waroona ride next weekend.

I am intending to go as a shakedown to the border run

I have put in for it, not heard back yet. Only two Marshals needed.

I'm one of them, I'm happy for others to attend, but unfortunately there's no payment. Meet at Waroona at 8.15 for 9.00 am start.

I too have put up my hand and as yet haven't heard, the weather is looking promising, has anyone else done this run before and do they have any idea of a finishing time.

Cheers Chris

The race is only from Waroona to dwellingup along nanga brook road, there are two distances, the longest goes to dwellingup and return. I expect to finish just after lunch. A nice little run.

Hi Pete,
Thanks for the info, if you only need two people then i may bow out as its a cut lunch and water bag from Wanneroo to Waroona and a very early start. However i will always help out when i can, enjoy the day.

Cheers Chris

Thanks for your interest Chris, the next event is York in August, I'll check on how many marshals are required.

I still havent heard back from Lisa, and I answered her email about 1 min after getting it. Ahe can be a bit slow responding.

bloodbikes · « **Reply #8 on:** July 20, 2015, 08:40:24 PM »

I'll drop her an email and get back to you.

Wombat · « **Reply #9 on:** July 21, 2015, 12:47:55 PM »

Pete
I will drop out if there is no need for others as I need to check jobs for a tender and have just realised it may be a 1100 km trip.

Let me know if you need a hand

Cheers

Lisa replied to an email prompt last night, so I'm in. Wiull see you there Pete, guess it you and me.

bloodbikes · « **Reply #11 on:** July 21, 2015, 10:41:50 PM »

Yes, should be a nice day, I'll be there just after 8am, I might run the course first on the way down.

Thanks Brock for your participation at Waroona today, a really good day made better with the sunshine.

A couple of fine riders there

Whats mounted on your topbox Brock

bloodbikes · « **Reply #17 on:** July 29, 2015, 02:53:46 PM »

One of his drift cameras!!

Totgas · « **Reply #18 on:** July 29, 2015, 03:12:42 PM »

it looks like its pointed at his head - wide angle lens?

bloodbikes · « **Reply #19 on:** July 29, 2015, 03:18:13 PM »

What your seeing is the screw in button on the back plate, the lens is facing rearward.

Brock · « **Reply #20 on:** July 29, 2015, 05:39:03 PM »

What he said.

Totgas · « **Reply #21 on:** July 29, 2015, 06:26:46 PM »

Just joking. Thought it was strange that it was facing the wrong way.
Looks like Pete's front tyre is a little on the low side, or is it just the angle?
Any footage worth sharing?
Do they provide the Marshal signs? and
How are those strobes going?

Brock · « **Reply #22 on:** July 29, 2015, 06:38:31 PM »

I should have some sample footage soon, strobes are great.

Brock · « **Reply #23 on:** July 29, 2015, 09:10:16 PM »

Here be the vid, its not very clear though. Some of these guys were flying, up to 70Ks down hill at times.

bloodbikes · « **Reply #24 on:** July 29, 2015, 10:43:39 PM »

Will have to check that front tyre, does look a tad low. I've yet to download my videos
