Wild Experience

As the cover of darkness lifts, and whilst the idea of a little more shut eye seems just a treat,

And the effects of the urban wilderness and perhaps a wild night before, memories fossilised and relived from Tounge and Grove, B-bar and the Red tube are collected.

A breed of animal awakes from its sleep, no not a ‘Yeti’.

With an innate impulse, natural inclination and aptitude of riding with the QUON. They celebrate this tradition and worship the role of QUON Master, with ‘Smuppi’ its ‘national treasure’.

As the team collectively assembles at the spiritual place [Ghost shop], emerging from the urban wilderness, the natives restlessness wait for the shambles to begin – who and where?

There’s Terra, Spud, Pysie and lets not forget ‘skin-n-bones’ to name just some.

An experience to behold in the animal kingdom.

The process of evolution is continually tested, with development of a new off-spring called a QUON-a-bee. With names such as Mascot, Hulk, Rex, Flying Squirrel being thrown around, he is known by an abbreviated wave, seen on applause in acknowledgement of his arrival.

Ultimately the QUON Master and Team QUON Elders can decide the fate of this new off spring,

and its promotion to ‘Rookie Status’. Thumbs up or down? Which of the two will be the cry.

Doubts are cast, and great faith shown. Is this rookie fit for our team? Risk be known of the consequence to the nominee and the offering of the QUON kit for burning.

To be a QUON stems from an intrinsic understanding of what animal instincts are required to be one.

This species of cycling animal is endangered by new ideas and the implementation of new policies [ie.Youth],

It is fiercely protected by its Elders [Steering Committee], and cannot be defined alone by the coffee it drinks, the condiment it spreads on its toast or even why it choses to spit its dummy.

It stems from its primal instincts and its need to attack, attack, attack!

From what I see, the qualities intrinsically attach this animal are loyalty, spirit, commitment, mateship, pride, contribution and of course willing to accept retribution, team and responsible for the survival of this unique breed.

All qualities this wanna-bee QUON, is willing to embrace.

The scriptures may never be re-scribed, however indeed it fails to acknowledge the creation of the Team QUON ands its willingness to attack, attack, attack!
