Re: Bonneville August 10 2013
Davo and I will be heading across to cover it for Street Machine... well actually, we're going there to have a really good time and hopefully we'll get a story or 10 out of it.

I've sent the letter off, maybe it will help a little. I also got in touch with an old high school friend of mine from when I lived in Kalgoorlie. He's a successful aboriginal businessman these days and I think he's been involved with indigenous land use/rights in the past. Not sure if he can help a...
