So this weekend was the FTMA Wombat Rally. This rally is held at Warnertown, just outside Port Pirie South Australia. They tell me its the best Rally in SA, I won't argue coz its the only one I go to so I can't judge for myself. Anyway I rock up looking for somewhere safe to park my SR, when Lefty, a 400 pound organiser, says "Mick what year is that thing?" "'78" says I. "Good" he said, "that makes it vintage, park here, we've only got 2 other vintage bikes for the Show and Shine." Well, he's 400 pounds, so I'm not arguing. Cut a long story short, my baby won Best Vintage Bike. Only a '78 Z1000 Kwaka, and a late 60's yammy trail bike for competition, but the judging is all peoples choice, so Dammit, I'm taking the win regardless. Mick

First congratulations! First place is first place = good job!
I want to share a little saying I have developed over my (almost) 50 years on this earth and nearly 40 years of motorcycle competition. "It's not how good you are (or your car or bike) it is how good your competition is". My only 1st place trophies came in events where the best guys didn't show up! Oh, and people's choice are my FAVORITE 1st place trophies. Judges can be VERY biased.
