From the Veri site:
Blackwood Vinduro. August 30-31.
The start will be at the Tennis Courts (Parc Ferme) at the Rec Reserve at Blackwood 85ks from the CBD.
The event will be on similar lines as the 2013 Harrow Vinduro as we have obtained the use of a 40 acre undulating paddock on the edge of town for the ‘special test practice’ on the Saturday 12 – 4pm. This paddock will be used in every loop as well as another property we are negotiating with.
The course will be laid out by Kristen Cahill and Peter Drakeford. There will be the usual Vinduro Route Checks, cold start test, 3 per minute, timecards, checkpoints (manned by the locals).
Naturally, all riders will have to be licenced and the bikes ‘Red Plated’, fully road registered or riders can apply to VERi for an ‘Unregistered Vehicle Permit’ (see details below). Recreational registration will also be suitable for most of the course aside from approximately 100 metres of roadway where rec rego bikes will need to be pushed.
This event replicates enduros of the 1970s where ‘transport’ sections with loose time limits (to discourage speeding) were used to link ‘interesting’ sections and special tests.
The Blackwood Hotel will be open for us specifically on the Saturday night, there is a small restaurant opposite, 3 motel rooms behind the hotel, a camping ground, lots of B & Bs and we have booked 2 big cabins with all facilities at the Outdoor Education Camp sleeping 24 from Friday to Sunday.
More accommodation details are on the entry form.
Contact us if you have any queries.
One lucky entrant at the Blackwood Vinduro will have their name drawn to receive a complimentary entry to a subsequent VERi event of their choice. So you can enjoy a great event, and potentially enjoy another one on us. How cool is that?
