    Good on ya Bollocks , awesome stuff !!

    As I lived in the uk during the 80’s when mad cows roamed the countryside I can’t give blood in Australia unfortunately :(
    My mother has given blood every 3 months over their for almost 50 years which I reckons a top effort !!

    After speaking with TB we thought it a good idea to get some rider contact sheets together like we did for the Cameron ride. Basically it will have names, addresses, medical condition if any, closest relative and any other info you feel nessacary.
    I will have the sheets laminated and on one side will be ride info ( fuel station locations and numbers, motorcycle repair and parts shops, possible accommodation if needed and hotels of course !).and on the other rider contacts.
    The riders that went on the Cameron ride I still have your details unless things have changed since October 2010 but I will need to get details from…

    Fish
    Kram
    Tryhard
    and any other reserves that will be coming.

    I will need to get this info before Friday so I have time to get it sorted before I leave on Wednesday.
    Please PM me asap.

    Cheers

    Word on the street is that an esteemed member of this site has been seen scavenging through rubbish bins on the North Coast. Originally it was thought it was for food after spending so much on a DRZ and a Tenere but it turns out he threw his new fuel mod switch out with his lunch rubbish. :silly:

    Should not be too hard to find as Yamba only has one Maccas :P

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: that’s hilarious , what an idiot ! :whistle:

    I did find a half decent pie though!! :blink:

    I am taking only a limited amount of cloths as space is tight! Only taking some t’shirts, one pair of pants and shorts, volley’s and undies & socks for eight days. I figure if I am cold i will wear my riding jacket.
    I will also bring a spare pair of riding pants.
    We should all smell the same anyway so all should be good, until we get into town! :dry: :blush:
    We must all remember to bring our cool bags for night caps!!:evil:

    My soft esky is already strapped on the bike mate!!

    Only to fend off cold nights of course 👿

    I can vouch for this tactic Krusty it does work, went to Micks b,day ride the same weekend as my 9 year olds b,day. But a promised flight to Sydney , a trip to Taronga and the Aquarium and all was well.
    Expensive but it was great to do both ;)

    I would have a go Al but not sure I’ve got your skill to make some of those hills!
    Your advice on tyre pressure last time got me up the last hard hill of the day first attempt but I’m am way off having your speed to attack with confidence to do it hill after hill!

    I will also be on the high country ride that weekend so that’s going to be a good test in itself !!
