Wrong turn of the decade-The wrong turn of the decade goes to a group ride west of Mt Glorious in 2006, there is a vital turn that is easy to miss when flying along a very steep and long downhill. There were around 25 lost riders heading west into the sunset that day......... I wonder if they ever made it home?
QPS rider of the decade-The award for QPS (Queensland Police Service) rider of the decade goes to
Deefa who can be seen around Brisbane week in and out riding hard. Deefa is an ordinary bloke on an ordinary bike producing ordinary results! And for that, we salute you! Top job Deefa!
SEQ Criterium venue of the decade-The award for SEQ Criterium venue of the decade goes to the Balmoral track at Murrarie known locally as 'The Muz' It was built on top of a disused rubbish tip! Some might say that the track is safer since the direction was changed to clockwise. There have been many square kilometers of roadrash attributed to the track over the years. Words of wisdom-
"The track is only as safe as the riders make it"
Ex-professional chainsaw juggler of the decade-The award for this catagory was a close one, in the end it was decided to give the award to Gatton's J.Pinnell. This man is one of the kindest people you will ever meet, he gives alot back to the MTB community. In fact one of the best XC tracks on the Qld race calendar in right on his property! J.P. we salute you!
Biggest heart of the decade-The award for the 'biggest heart' goes to the attack-a-tron named Trickle! His motto is " Small bloke, lotta heart!" I would crawl across endless flat fields of broken stubbies just to be your groupie!
Dummy attack of the decade-The dummy attack of the decade goes to this unidentified 'Rats' rider who took off from the gun at the 2006 Noosa Enduro 50km race. He bolted so hard he had 270 riders in single file, he made it to the photographer who was sitting about 3kms in, then proceeded to blow up into millions of little peices! What a fool!
