16.01.2022 Waroona Enduro 2018 Luke Brian and Friends

16.01.2022 Hi everyone I will do a race write up for the Busselton race on Monday after Kevin gives me all the details

15.01.2022 What a great weekend of racing in the KT Classic. Apart from Luke having to pull out due to boat issues and injury, all had a great run as the water levels were very high, the same as 2004, for those who were around then. I want to thank Toby and Callum for running the rescue boat. You guys did a fantastic job including recovery. I was very impressed, thank you again. A big thanks to Sean and his girls for being there as rescue support crew another great job and as expected S...eans girls kept Sean on the right track from check point to check point. I know ladies dad would have been lost without your support. Thank you to Christine and Rhonda in helping with the finish timing. Second last, thank you Greg, as always you are there to help out with getting boats back into the water. I also need to thank Terrell in helping with all the signage, putting them up and retrieving them. Thanks to all support crews, it is an important job that you do and i know that your race teams appreciate all that you do. Congratulations to those who were able to finish and/or pull a place. I will see you all at the AGM in October. See you all next year with more boats entering. I am looking and adding another 30 minutes added to the Sues Bridge leg. I will keep you posted.

15.01.2022 Regretfully the Waroona Event has bee delayed till April

15.01.2022 We are up to our 3 rd race of the year with the next one on the 22nd April at waroona dam,so come down have a look and maybe even jump in a boat after the race and see what its all about ,once you have had a go youll be hooked. River racing starts in about 6 weeks so if you want to start racing the waroona race would be a good starter race.
