    Thredbo Super Enduro 2020

    Figured I'd start a thread. I know a few burners are going, and I'm keen to hear all about it. Plus, I just saw an ad on bookface asking for volunteer marshalls for the event, which needs to be shared. Pretty sweet offer (a bike and lift ticket for each day that you marshall)...

    I saw this while trawling the dark corners of the interwebz. For sale locally for peanuts. This is the only image. I can't find any info online about Gitane duallies. Anyone know what it is? It looks like it could have potential .... Is it worth a resurrection?
