Choppers Australia

The Bikeweek over Easter has been cancelled .
The blurb the organisers sent out says they hope to hold the event in August.

The responses say it all. Similar thought pattern . Years ago I was talking to a guy who had hired a car. He told me the reason he was hiring the car was his daughter killed his and it was being repaired. He had loaned her his car. She was driving along and thought the temp. gauge was reading high. ...

I was rostered to work on the weekend so missed it,sadly. Several mates made it there and had a ball. I've already seen the photos ! Looked like great weather and a top location. Funny how they won't pay you if you don't turn up for work, kill joys !

Just got a promo sheet on BIKE WEEK 2010 to be held over the Easter Weekend (2 to 5 April ) at Queensland Raceway,Ipswich,Queensland. It reads - Camping, Burn out comps, Drag racing, Gymkhana, Vintage motocross, Historic racing, Cruise sessions on Qld. Raceway, Test rides of latest models ( bikes, I...

Sunday the 24th of January. 2 pm to 8 pm.
I'm working 'till 6pm so I stand no chance of making it, was really looking forward to it.

Having a sidecar makes camping with Madame less stressful. She must have her creature comforts. If Madame is not happy nobody is happy. Trial and error, take what you think you'll need. If it comes home and didn't get used cross it off the list for next time. For clarification, Madame was dubbed " K...

Johno, a part of the reason there were so many people out looking at the Toy Run was that a week ago various Lockyer Ulysses Club members walked the whole route doing a letterbox drop to every house along the way. Promoting the run and all the great sponsors.

Sorry Johno, knew your name started with a "J" but sometimes I have a sive for a memory.

What a day !! I don't have numbers yet but I believe the expected numbers were surpassed. Great weather,if a bit on the hot side. The start had all undercover parking so that was a blessing. Lots of cold water made it better. Met briefly with one C.A. guy. We were setting off so my apologies for the...

I'm about to head out to the shed to decorate the sidecar outfit in all its Christmas finery. Oldest grandson is artistic director with heaps of tinsel and garlands. Getting into the spirit of the season. UPDATE on the toy run. If the chance to spread some Christmas cheer, be generous to those less ...

Yes, they chopped 2 strokes in the 70s but it would be nice to think we can learn from our mistakes. I've always had a soft spot for 70s 2 strokes but to chop one these days seems criminal . Kwaka triples are just too rare and special now.

I'll be there for sure. Having the breakfast and in for the run and the raffles. If I'm well enough we'll turn up on the outfit. If not too good we'll still make it one way or another and make the most of it.

Latest update on the Toy Run. If you choose to pay for a breakfast and badge you get a ticket that is valid for every raffle during the day. There are over 40 prizes to be drawn, some worth over $400. There are also about 35 auctions taking place, also with some big dollar items. The chance to pick ...

Valid point about the dust. From my experience the trotting track itself and the drives are dusty but the huge infield and off street parking areas are OK. Check out the Twilight Hot Rod Show on Australia Day, that will be a test run for Greazefest. If there are problems or complaints the organisers...

The organisers of Greazefest are holding a Hot Rod Show on Australia Day at the Rocklea Showgrounds. From 2pm to 8pm with live bands and catering.
Entry $15,kids under 15 years free.
