I'm glad that you girls that made it down had a great time! All of the females that i saw there were really throwing it down and making some of the guys look really bad . I see some really good times there too... well done. Pretty much everyone i have talked too had a good weekend. Sorry to hear about the flats and the bad qualifying run roxy, its just a bit of bad luck eh.
All the best,
Stewart.

Hey Rox!
Yeah I was wondering why your name wasn't in the top 3?! Thought something might have gone pear shaped... damn tyres! How are your injuries going? Hope no biggies
I really want to go to a National round one of these days, the Tas track looked very nice... except for the nasty bits, LOL
I sliced a couple of fingers open today at work so, again, I won't be riding for a little while - DOH!
All the best,
Jo

Make sure you triple check that all your screws are done up tight!!!! my bars were loose so when i went over a drop my bars rotated upside down and i went over the bars . doh.
looks like ive done my scafoid and ulner and some ligament/soft tissue damage.
I was so excited about riding that track too. oh well next time!
yeah well done to all the girls ripping up the track!!

Hey Rox, when is the Mt Beauty race?
