mottyman Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Hi all, Friday fishing hopefully. Just a short session on the Parra with any luck. Saturday - folks over for BBQ for lunch. Sunday - Andy's scout group has their Billy Cart Derby at Rooty Hill. It's a fantastic day where the kids go like rockets down a big grass hill on home made carts with no brakes!!!! It's just the funniest thing and a great day out. I'll be taking the 3 kids so gets a day off. Gunna be a great weekend as always. Cheers David.

mottyman Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Yep, love the billy carts CFD. Just a shame we're not allowed pump up tyres and bearing wheels... then we'd get some speed!!!!!! Might have few less kids by the end of the day though. The funniest part of all is at the end of the day when all the parents get to have turn. The extra weight in the cart gets them moving quite nicely and some great stacks and wrecked carts follow.... Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Working on the the wonderful suggestions that raiders have made and getting some wheels in motion Enjoy your weekend all Cheers mrsswordfisherman PS Ahhhh billy carts bring back lots of memories, spending all Christmas holidays constructing them, acquiring the pram wheels were a must and the piece of stick for the brake worked sometimes......... then there was the elaborate steering mechanism (rope) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gafmo Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 (edited) I was going fishing at Berowra on Sunday but now after learning about the billy cart derby, plans have changed. Fishing up Berowra on Saturday then attending the billy cart races on Sunday. My good wife can attend the lawns and garden to stop her getting bored. Thanks for the tip off David.

Geoff Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Helping my son in law with some concreting on Saturday. Sunday , to be decided Billycarts. The drive way at my parents house is rather steep & sweeps around to a flat section. We would run rubber wheels on the front & ball racers on the rear which was a chalenge to control the rear. We had our fair share of spinouts. The trick was not to fall over the edge of the drive into the garden which was 1.5 mt below. Arrr , the memories of years gone by Geoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest madsmc Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 I will be busy with other things this weekend, but I may sneak a quick SP session in on Sunday morning if possible. The is away for most of the weekend, so I'll be keeping our young fella entertained, along with getting a few overdue house chores out of the way. The tackle bag needs to be replenished, so I'm hoping to get some time to do up a shopping list for next week. Not looking forward to seeing the bill for that. Good luck to everyone wetting a line this weekend. Don't forget to take the camera for the all important entry pic for Catch of the Month.

Flattieman Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 I'm almost definitely doing some fishing - just don't know what type yet. Maybe off the beach, maybe in the Port Hacking, maybe in Botany Bay. I'm not sure yet, but the weather forecast looks good - for the whole week in fact!: Flattieman.
