Do be decided at tonights meeting Jimmy ya smart bottom! haha tough crowd round here i tell ya.  the intent was so it can be discussed, (just in case anyone thinks about not running it) theres no prize for worst beard so good luck with the cards you get on the day. ___________________________________________________ A poker run is an organized event where participants must visit five to seven checkpoints, drawing a playing card at each one. The object is to have the best poker hand at the end of the run. The event has a time limit, however the participants are not timed—winning is purely a matter of chance. its a social ride day with the intent of having Dads, mums and kids follow each other around the various tracks we have without racing. Once done we will have a bit of a club gathering/party to have some time to meet and great members and non members and promote the social aspect of our club as when were racing its a little hard to do so. Anyone who may be willing to provide any form of prize wether it be large or small please PM me, theres 1 major prize to be put up but theres a few other prizes that we can offer of a smaller nature. Anyone looking to provide the major prize will have naming rights for the day and it will be the ATVWA ........ Poker Run Any queries throw them at me on here or via PM if you wish to be discrete about the potential prizing Cheers |

The day was a great day riding for all who came along. Congratulations to all riders and well done to Brodie for taking out the day with a straight when we all thought he was gonna come last based on his first few cards.
Big thanks to all volunteers, especially the ladies from Woodridge who cooked a great bbq lunch for everyone and Paul, the ambo, for coming out for the day and allowing us to ride. Also thanks to all who helped out with track prep, scoring on the day, sweeping and everything else that helped the day to be such a great success.
Hopefully next time round we'll have a better turnout and allow a great event to continue to build and add to the social side of the club more than just the racing.
