Hey all.....anyone meeting up on the 'Western-side' of Healesville? I'm coming from Bundoora and would like to meet up with other CXers going to the VJMC on Saturday. Message me if anyone is organising a meeting spot this side of Healesville!

Cheers,
Rone

Those from the super tax state will be there on Friday

Helmut & myself together with Wayne and Gary will be leaving Altona around 1300 on Friday and will be meeting up with Mark [from Adel] and Harry probably at Forest Hill, then riding up to Healesville together. Mark will be staying at Donvale Thursday which is not that far from BUndoora.

Give me a phone call on 0438 131 885 or PM me to work out details

Thanks guys but I just got hold of the programme to find out what was actually happening tomorrow. Seeing as how I'm not actually registering my bike for the event guess I'll just mossy on up at noon when it opens to the public.

Hope to meet some of the CX family still, not sure how close I can park my bike but keep a look out for a black 'CAFED' '78 CX....I'll be wearing my vintage style skid lid

phantomcxmenance · « **Reply #83 on:** 25-Oct-09, 07:58 »

i thought you were going ray?

rooray · « **Reply #84 on:** 25-Oct-09, 13:58 »

I was ...right up to the death. My mum had a heart attack on Tue..so needed to stay around her. She is good now.

I've arrived home a couple of hours ago.
Great weekend!
Unfortunately I ended up having to go in my cage....

I blew a head gasket in my CX650E on Thursday night...

It's all about people in the end - it was great to meet new Forum members and renew previous acquaintances.
Kathy allowed me to take Ron's custom for a ride on Saturday and Mel allowed me to ride her 500Euro 'Bad Girl' on Sunday.
Attached are a few photos I took over the weekend - including in the car park.
Who's GL650 is that?

doddsy1000 · « **Reply #86 on:** 25-Oct-09, 19:24 »

Thanks Joe. Great photo's. I did try to hide the yellow cx in the carpark, but alas, it's un-hidable. (Ace will have to tell me if there is such a word

).

Great to meet you & thanks for the advice.

FYI, Joe was kind enough to point out the reasons that a red shock absorber may not work on a yellow bike. Now it's up to me to pull the thing out & have a look.

cheers

Ian

P.S. I hope to have this ready for next years VJMC.

hdconyers · « **Reply #87 on:** 25-Oct-09, 19:31 »

Great weekend !!!

Well done Mark & our group as well !!

phantomcxmenance · « **Reply #88 on:** 25-Oct-09, 19:40 »

sorry to hear that ray..hope she is ok

Mins Man · « **Reply #89 on:** 25-Oct-09, 19:41 »

Hmmm. Seems to be missing a few bits. I've decided when I get my 650 on the road, I'm going to paint it hi-vis orange, just to up-stage you!

doddsy1000 · « **Reply #90 on:** 25-Oct-09, 20:15 »

Don't make me get out the flouro paint Harry.

Mins Man · « **Reply #91 on:** 25-Oct-09, 21:08 »

This could get ugly, Ian. I'm thinking flouro green perhaps, or maybe Aviation Orange. Bring it on!

Arty0012 · « **Reply #92 on:** 25-Oct-09, 21:19 »

Your Mut will bite you and the bike Harry

doddsy1000 · « **Reply #93 on:** 25-Oct-09, 22:02 »

Ugly it is then mate

How about yellow & red safety stripes?

I just agreed to buy a VT500 fairing, to see if I can fit it on the euro. That'll start me on the multi coloured path in any case.

Mins Man · « **Reply #94 on:** 25-Oct-09, 22:09 »

I fitted a fairing from what I was told was VT500 to my Euro. There was very little difference from memory. The mounting points might have been slightly different, but I don't think it was a problem.
