    B) AWSOME WEEKEND…
    Thanx to TB for the route and all the planning and of course the same goes to all the great folks I got to ride with,, You too ACE (my ride buddy all the way) ;) :P ;)

    Got home about 5.50 after a solo run thru Watagan Creek Rd to the Pines (almost got killed by an idiot in a green or grey Hilux, sideways on my side of the road) :pinch: :whistle:
    Met up with Ace again at the Pines as he had changed his plans on the fly :laugh:

    Damn dusty up there and a lot of the weekend actually,,, Still didn`t spoil the fun though ;)
    My ks covered were 920klm from St Albans yeterday to back home tonite, plus the run doen on friday thru the Watagans of about 140 :)

    Still feel ok at the moment, but will be sore tomorrow I reckon :laugh:

    Think you mean NAVMAN not GAVMAN ;)
    But the GARMIN models are best..

    Nuvii models that are bike specific, waterproof & dustproof etc
    Also have bluetooth for helmet headsets

    Many varying prices and mapping options.
    TB has a few different models of GPS, tried & tested and he will chime in with some advice form his experiences ;) He is prabably busy packing his bike & gear for tomorrows ride though ,,,,

    Do your research, buy the best you can afford that suits your needs mate, they are an expensive outlay but worth it for sure (thats why I have an old Garmin unit & a cheapo ALDI unit) :whistle: :dry: :cheer:

    :laugh: You don`t know the 690 R globes then mate :whistle:
    THought I had a spare here, must have used it already,,,

    Lost High Beam when I checked over the lights tonite, it will blow the Low in a few days for sure,,,,
    They have done it to me before (normally on the way home from a two day ride when it`s gettin` dark)
    Did it to me on the last 60k of the Nundle ride last year :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    I just wanna be safe on Sunday just in case :silly:
