Thought about this a bit since it happened as i to have riden a lot by my self
and love it as much as riding in a group , I do try to tell some one the direction
i’m heading but that can change and i dont realise how far off track i get
till somebody says thats a long way from where you said you were going.
But as everybody has admited we all do it .
While waiting for mate at the Wollombi tavern met a uni student from Melbourne
on an XT660 , said he camped the night a Jerry’s Plain and come through the
californian track and heading into the watigan forest ,only had two weeks
off so had to start finding his way back down . Had GPS , map and a phone .
On my way back to Singleton another time on the Stony Creek Road meet a bloke
from way down south [carn’t remember where] on a stock DR650 , said he brought
it new 10 week earlier and it had 10,000 Km on it when i met him . He had a map
and a phone and camping gear heading in no particular direction.
THis is all OK till it turn bad . Its no good telling loved ones where u were .
So a Spot Tracker is a must .
RIP old mate
