There was nt any intention of Mal organising.......it was purely meant to be a humorous response based on xmang and your response.
 I ll consult with my script writers in future and give them a severe flogging for any distress caused to Mal or others unintentionally.
That said....if 4,000 people already attend this event....I m sure there is catering and accomodation to suit 20 to 30 extra XS1100 members.
No one will ever take away the efforts of the steptoes ....it has been greatly appreciated by the bretheren.
Bourke will always be ...Bourke...for what it has to offer .

But can you imagine this..............track day at Broadford.........where anyone can get on and have a fang........and there s Lil Scotty ,Bryan and Scarfey dicing and duelling for the coveted elusive trophy as hand made by Mudsey/Picasso/Jonesy........won t tell you who I d think would win that one  :D

I don t see BBB  as ever replicating or comparing to Bourke or the work put in by all  ......just something different to tell the grandkids.
I ll do some investigations as to catering/camping/accommodation etc and keep you posted.

It was actually discussed at the "officialness" part of the rally night to move the rally around a little, as is suggested here, organised and setup by the locals of the area

The sticky bit of it is it, s bloody hard organising something somewhere you are a long way removed from,,,

Bourke is getting easier each yr because we kept using the old contacts and new ones we found whilst there at the time,

If. for arguments sake we were to move it to Broadford, being in Vic, someone or several of the said "locals" would do it

If it went to Bathurst, it would fall to Jonesy and or Scotty,, being there

It is after all our forum, expecting poor old Mal to be lumped with it is a bit much,

We, 'll keep researching here for a bit anyway, it hasn't, t got to be decided today, and if someone wants to put their hand up for the BBB thing great

Great idea 8)

As long as the southerners organise everything

#accom, camping and motels that suite the budget of everyone,,

# catering for the masses so no one goes hungry

# all to the standard as set by Michelle for the past 3 yrs

Any volunteers ????

PS,, we, 'll be there

I think its a great idea, I have been talking to Mal Pitman and I think he has already raised Broadford as an option

I have book the time in with the misses all I have to do now is get the bike finished
