Captain Robert's Riverting Report Ready Readable...

Narrogin can be a cruel place in summer and this weekend proved to be no exception with temperatures hovering around the high 30’s.  The track was as dry as a seized two stroke and the only thing glad to be out there were the Narrogin bull ants.  About 25-30 people had turned up by lunch time and soon most hardy souls were out on the track helping cut firewood.  I decided to walk the track before everyone arrived and found it had held up well over the closed season, only a couple of trees to clear off the track and to my surprise I found that gear lever rubber off my Greeves I lost last year!  I also had the pleasure of walking the track with MWA official Graham Pritchard who carried out his ‘track inspection’.

His report mentioned a few minor house keeping issues, these we shall need to address prior to our next race day on 25th, 26th and 27th April.  A few of us also nutted out a spot for the 40 foot container which should arrive at the track within a couple of weeks.  It will be a relief to store all our possessions away in a more secure spot.  

By late afternoon it had cooled off slightly and a few hardy souls took to the track while a few more sensible members sat around telling bigger lies as the bourbon/afternoon progressed.  Gary Johnstone had the tree huggers up in arms as he watered the clubhouse roof to cool the inhabitants down.  I unfortunately had to leave that night so I can’t report on the sore heads the next day or the heroics of our riders, I’ll leave that up to Club Captain Robert. 

Many thanks to everybody who pitched in at the busy bee.
