I am going to Mackay for work next weekend 16th-18th.

I only have to do a small job on Saturday morning and was hoping to find someone to shuttle with so I can bring my bike and do some runs.

I will pay for shuttles and can return the favour in Brisbane some time.

Hey rabatt, go down to the Old Grasstree Beach gold mine and get my track up and running again for when I come up at Christmas time to see the inlaws.

You are one weekend too late.
Why is that?

With Coffs on this weekend, I won't be feeling like I'm missing out though.

The Mackay DH racing is on this long weekend, nothing is happening the next weekend.

J5ive lives in Rocky, he is going up on the long weekend as well.

I don't get it??? Are you saying the dam is better than Coffs? If so, I'll believe it when I see and furthermore I'll be a very happy man. I can't believe the schedule I have. This week Coffs, next week Mackay, 2 weeks after I'm off to Golden, then Whistler, then Mission, then Kelowna. Holy crap man, am I awake?

Are you taking the HT up to Mackay, Kram? If so, you wont get the full fun of the Dam IMO. The top is very rooty and rocky.

Just talked to Aiden, he said they had heaps of rain during the race and the track is like a highway now. Should have no probs with the HT Kram...

yep you missed out allright (unless you dont like mud).

it rained heaps before the race so it was super slipery, i didnt get to race so i dont know what that track looks like now but it was great fun on saturday.
