    Well after a few rather large months at work I have scored a few days off. I am heading out in a few minutes to do some pre-running for an up and coming event in 2013. I will see Mick in Choppy hopefully Wed night in the shed for a fizzy drink, it could be wishful thinking Wed night given I have some 1000kms off road between tonight and Wed pm.
    I will update this thread with pictures and stuff during the next couple of days, hopefully my new stead will keep me ahead of the 4 x 990’s going :huh: Always have an ace in the hole boys, see I am leading setting the route and will be keeping it tight to suit the new ride :P

    Spot link

    Enjoy work peeps :laugh:

    Well got to Oberon this evening, fixed the spot link in the first post if interested. Homer fronted on his own seems he broke his two off siders :unsure: so there will be just the two of us

    Stopped in the forest and took a photo and did the sag actually ( yeah I packed a tape measure)

    Well that was certainly an interesting 300 + km! To say the least!

    Probably some of the craziest kms I have done on a bike to be honest. :ohmy:

    AS TB said, I needed to take my A game with me. He wasn’t wrong, the boys set a fairly consistant pace all day with some tom foolery thrown in for good measure.

    What a cracker day out! Then a shed party, a swim and pizzas to finish off a great day!
