    Hope he recovers well!

    You passed it on the URAL???????? Was it parked or something…..LOL

    We were in the car… :blush: They were only traveling at Ural-ish speeds anyway when I saw them. I think the traily was a p-plater, maybe a 250 as well?

    What a bitch of a day to be on that road…

    I gave up on this toy run… too many problems took the fun out of it. Last year we went on the Wingham Toy Run and had a great time. We’ll be doing that again this year.

    Wingham Plaza
    Sunday December 4
    10:30am to leave at 11:00am
    to Harrington Skate Park.

    The route includes Wingham Road, Lansdowne, Coopernook and Harrington with the gifts to then be presented to the Salvos. There will food available to purchase at the skate park and the public is encouraged to come along and take part in the festivities.

    As far as Toys go I`m not sure yet

    Toys are actually what they want least… food and cash are much preferred…

    I came across this is the local paper. Whilst I appreciate that there is some merit in what they say

    There’s a whole lot of merit in it. Every unregistered and/or unlicensed dickhead out there is making trouble for the rest of us.

    I (we) would like to come along, and we’ll be sticking to the ‘roads’. We’d come up via the Tops.

    Likewise, it was good to catch up with you. Gotta love coincidences…

    We had a great weekend in Coffs with a whole bunch of disgraceful old farts…

    The Urals were developed from an R72 BMW, so the sound is exactly like a Beemer boxer. The feel/performance is often compared to an R75/5, not that I’ve had a chance to try one of those…

    I think they wouldnt be close to an R75/5 performance wise, more like a 50/5 B)

    They are… put a sidecar on the R75 and compare performance. I’m not trying to compare a solo to a sidecar for performance.

    Not available here, but there is a solo and I think you’d find the performance very similar.
