the birthday weekend…..
i left home thursday morning to head up to the ‘gong’ to stay at LC’s place.
cruised up the middle thru Cooma and thought id stop in at canberra to give the pollies the finger :laugh: everything was cool, it was a beautiful day for driving. had a wicked steak sanga at the ‘tourists cafe’ in cooma and took off to our nations capital.drove around in circles for a while (as you do in Canberra) :laugh: and found my way to parliament house. i stopped to take a happy snap…
i was parked right out the front, where i wasnt supposed to be :whistle:
i hadnt been there 30 seconds when a rather grumpy looking federal copper (dressed in his full kevlar roost protector) :laugh: knocked on my side window… and scared the shit outta me in doing so :laugh: :laugh:
i guess when you drive a big silver van and park out the front it raises eyebrows these days… lucky i wasnt wearing my spiderman mask :laugh: :laugh:
we had a chat and he took my details, then he wanted to search my car. i opened the side door and he looked inside….
“where ya goin?” he said, so i told him.
he opened my esky and noticed the abundant amount of beverages and little amount of food and said “looks like you will be having a top weekend mate” :laugh: :laugh:
then he looked at my bike, looked at the pristine lawns covering parliament house, looked at me with a smirk and said, “wouldnt that be f**kin fun hey” :laugh: :laugh:
my reponse was “i hadnt even thought of that Officer” :whistle: and we both had a laugh.
he told me i’d best be on my merry way and i agreed.
“this place is a shithole and your big lake stinks worse than a Macca’s fart” was my parting remark. he smiled and i hightailed it outta there… chirping the tyres on the next corner and having a giggle at authority.i never thought i’d be so happy to see this sign… but i was !!
got to the gong just on dark and sipped a few whiskeys to ease my weary eyes.
dunno who these St George dudes are but their glasses works well…..friday came and LC, Nath and I convoyed up through the mountains to SC. a funny trip with the walkie talkies.
we arrived at SC, had a chat with the crew and proceeded to set up camp drunkasfuck :laugh: :laugh:
we were quite proud of our setup
LC4skin… happy to be back on the sauce :woohoo:while we sat back and basked in the glory that was camp drunkasfuck, the tamworthians arrived and proceeded to set up a bigger and better camp as ours, complete with marquee and goat pen :laugh: :laugh:
it was like watching Carnys set up a circus. there were even a few clowns
friday night was chock full of meeting, greeting, eating, laughing and drinking.
i was looking forward to an early night but as the whiskey drained itself from my bottle that idea went out the window….last thing i remember was cooking up some kranskys at some ungodly hour, to the sound of everyone snoring like chloriformed kittens…
happy days :laugh: :laugh:
TBC….
i forgot to mention the fun had friday night with the crowning of the new king and the de-flowering/crowning :dry: of the old joker. :laugh:
the fire roared and everybody had a ball at the unofficial auction, with hecklers aplenty :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:after indulging one too many scotchys friday night, and hearing the ride had been cancelled, i wasnt in any hurry to kit up. but like a trooper, i did.
luckily a mate was heading out and i thought i might tag along so i wouldnt get lost in the spooky pines and end up as yeti food.
it turned out to be a good idea as it was awesome fun. some other peeps had joined us too.
ive not ridden much in the last 6 months as i have some bone chips in my elbow (otherwise known as ‘faggy elbow syndrome’ apparently) :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: but on the ride i was in the “zone” and cutting sick like in days of old, only having one step off on a hill due to a couple of gumbys stopping in front of me :laugh: :laugh:
i did have plenty of puckering moments while fighting for grip though and said my fair share of hail mary’s through the pines :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
gotta love a total lack of traction
heres some picks of the random peeps who rode with me and the towball on the Gasser
Dejay, looks like he is styling… flipped it a millisecond later !
Dude, sporting the garbage bag rain coat (what an ideas man) :laugh:
Mal5.1 and 1inarow (sunny corners unofficial town cryer) :laugh:
JAK fighting a losing battle against gravity…
JAKs bike….JAK is top left, beginning his walk of shame 😆
the krustacean… with his pleopods working overtime :laugh: (i had to google that)
JAK, smiling at the shame…
Alyssa, laughing all the way up coz she made it further than JAK :laugh: shes a pisser!!
JAK… sucking in the big ones with a smile
Mal, so fast he is a blurr
Alyssa got to the top of this snotty hill and said “goody goody gumdrops”… or something totally ladylike to that effect :laugh: :laugh: cracked me up!
man it was a good ride, even in the rain and the cold.
to all the softwoods that left halfway through, you missed the best part!thanks for showing us around Mal
saturday night shenanigoats……. :laugh:
after the ride it was sooooo good to get back into some dry clothes and slurp on a soothing mug of whiskey
i lazed around for a while and chatted to some crew whilst whipping up some snags.
i found it amazing that STM could always sniff out some food and whenever we cooked, he (or one of his many entities) :laugh: :laugh: would turn up for a graze. it was uncanny. :laugh: :laugh:
STM, nose of a bloodhound….
chris72a, geeking it up as always :laugh: :laugh:it kept on raining and camp drunkasfuck was turning into a quagmire, despite all of JAK and Rohans trenching efforts.
wetter than a Manatee on heat!darkness began to fall and we all headed off for a tasty dinner at the SC hall. it looked like we had entered a japanese restaurant with everyones shoes at the door :laugh: :laugh:
after a big day on the bike and a feed of snags i was still ravished and woofed down plateful of food. i was still hungry and was sniffing around for seconds when they took the food away
:angry: WTF!!
many a laugh was had at dinner and my highlight was watching some bloke i didnt know take Bobs jacket and put it on, obviously without knowing the jackets history :laugh: :laugh: what a tool :laugh: :laugh: (i later found out it was Galey, so i was right about the tool bit) :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:being dangerously low on scotch i sweet talked JAK into taking a quick spin into Bathurst for some more stock… little did i know that JAK is scared to drive in the rain…and the dark :pinch: and well, now i know why he is also known as Mr Daisy :laugh: :laugh:
if anyone needs more explanation take a look at this…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-ApXCPf39c&feature=player_detailpage
:dry: :laugh: :laugh:
we finally made it back (eyes rolling) and got to the fire for the last of the auction action.
seems nobody wanted to have lunch with TB, cant understand why, he was paying :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
boony won the charity rack (sounds sexy when i put it like that!) (the rack, not Boony) but i had to wonder if he put it behind his Great Wall of shit, would the front wheels still be on the ground?? :laugh: :laugh: maybe he will enter it in the next Tamworth Tractor Pull :laugh:
the rains came again and we lobbed back to camp. i reckon camp drunkasfuck was actually a wormhole in time and space as everyone who entered it came out in a different state :laugh: :laugh:somwhere in the vortex, chris whipped out the guitar and some of the boys sang in choir. it sounded like a bag of cats getting neutered :laugh: but was f**king hilarious. i was too pissed to even tune my ukulele :laugh: :laugh: so i whipped out my trusty harmonicas and joined in 😆
anyone can play them and a few of the boys had a crack. we were all jammin hard.
a bloke i hadnt met before, MC Kronic wandered in and started freestyling some mad songs. it was fully sick and hectic even.
cant wait for his CD to come out.
i wanted him to sign my manboob but unfortunately, theres never a texta around when you need one :pinch:meanwhile, moto had all but shotgunned a bottle of vodka, to the amusement of all. being a seasoned Pom he is well travelled and quite fluent in the native swahili tongue, which he tried in vein to teach us before retiring on top of LC’s tent :laugh: :laugh:
elvis and his arsecrack leave the building
im a hari krishna… give me your money and i’ll pray.
Nath sings him a lullabyMal popped in for a while but wasnt too keen on the Drambuie shots, claiming it to be ‘fighting juice’ :laugh: :laugh:
he still had one and left in his usual tranquill rage of anger…
dont f**k with Mal, he will smile as he eats your head. :laugh: :laugh:i vaguely remember MickP coming over for a shot, just to say “suck shit kids, im retiring next year” :laugh: lucky bugger
mudflap kept an eye on us always, i think he was still pissed that i spun him around in the throne, sorry mate. he also likes Drambuie more than bacon though :whistle:
Bob had also had a skinfull of his favourite poison, raspberry vodka and creamy soda :sick:
god he is a rowdy bugger after a sniff….http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=T6HPMsEwTsU
Nath kisses Bob (apparently its ok where they come from)
from then on it gets a little blurry :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
LC decided it was time for a pole dance… on Sams pole :laugh:
it was late, here he shows us how to properly lick an envelopethis bloke wandered in
his name is Mick and he is a good bloke. we all hung shit on his hat.
then we found out he is a lawyer and he is gonna sue our arses…
so we gave him some Drambuie and various other intoxicants till he was our mate againby now it was really late
LC said, “hlkjtoiurtfntuiriotrl rthjrlgj erotjeloeri”
seems he had picked up motos strange swahili dialect.
it roughly translated to “f**k it, im going to bed”the camp was dead, so i headed over to the fire via Chris’ van
“Hi Chris”, lets jam some more!he was so excited he did get back out of bed….
but wouldnt help me drag STM’s tent down to the fire….
weak as piss i say :kiss:as usual, the one and only true old bull stayer was still at the fire……
the dude, looks to the heavens as he backs it up again….. f**king legendi crawled into bed still half dressed, basking in the glory that i’d made it through the whole episode without falling over
oh what a night………
my PC crashed just after i posted that last one :S thank god i didnt have to try writing it again
some other random shots i missed…

Arrived at destination after dark.
There was talk that the birthday ride had been cancelled. :ohmy: :ohmy: :ohmy:
Which was true of course as ‘per other pervious random posts.’ :ohmy:
The Tamworthains were restless. :dry:
“Oh dear”… I thought it’s ‘like a leap year‘…. :S
Anyway as per other posts…..went for a ride and happened to met up with some totally random riders who kept travelling in the direction that I wanted to go………how random was that.
A good time was had. :cheer:
Pity about the birthday ride :angry: …………… next year maybe. :cheer:

Think about the fact as well Galey that Jason had 20pound in not new tyres because he didn’t have a spare tube and didn’t want to trouble anybody and it’s clear he is one of the better riders around that I have ever seen
