After a damp start the rain stayed away for a day of hot ditch racing at the Bullen Snake Run. Highlights of the day were Dylan Baddely blitzing the field outright with three 6.81's, and Mitchell McCulloch, and the youngest racer Owen Rice running 2nd & 3rd in Under 15, and 1st & 2nd in the Plastic class, proving that courage and stoke to be your best is way more important than what you skate on.

Thanks to Mac's Skate, Monster, Swinburne Uni & ASRA for a great day.

Comment by Aaldert VanDenBerg on May 26, 2012 at 18:25: The weathers not looking to bad tomorrow so were still going ahead with it. We've got a couple of ideas to keep it dry if we do get some showers.

See you all there.

Comment by Aaldert VanDenBerg on May 26, 2012 at 12:01: Yeah it still could be ok, going to go have a look at the site this arvo to make sure it not to muddy after yesterday. We'll have a talk and check the forecast then and update everyone.

Comment by Braden on May 26, 2012 at 0:14: postpone sounds like a plan...but hey it might be o.k....

25cm at Falls Creek is the good news.

Comment by Oliver 'OJ' Smith on May 25, 2012 at 21:39: ...so what do we rekon about the weather so far crew?

Comment by Aaldert VanDenBerg on May 24, 2012 at 22:50: We will have to postpone it if its to bad or use marquess to try and cover it and just make a run down the middle just using some of the banks. They weather channel thinks that there will be up to 5mm so that's not to bad.
