    Day 2

    Drove 800kms with Jacko ( that’s hard work!) made a video that Jacko posted up on the gathering thread. Booked a cabin at Rockhampton, easy run in the morning only 320k  

    Spotted a pub

    Grabbed some beers and bundies and a feed of Malaysian and settled down to watch the footy. Early start again tomorrow we should if all goes to plan be on the bikes and leaving Mackay by lunch tomorrow. That will put us basically a day ahead of schedule.

    day 1
    Big drive left home at 4.15am Spoke with Kat at 4.30 the little doer was down the shed working on her bike.
    Started raining at Taree and basically didn’t stop all day. Had lunch in Coffs with STM,  Moose and Kram caught up there. We stopped at Grafton motorcycles where Kram purchased a tyre to replace the one I forgot to get from my place (sorry mate) 
    Once at Nick’s Kram fitted his tyre we drank beers and gave encouragement the old bull way until I got dragged into it through frustration as did Jacko

    We spotted Boony’s new helmet

I spoke with him yesterday and he hadn’t had anyone report problems because I asked. Did you get the route from Steve via email or have you tried to load it from my every trail account / link. If that’s the case it won’t work because it’s not complete and wasn’t made to load from that only view

    Hope that helps

    I loaded it from the everytrail site which had two tracks in one file.
    It had to be converted to load into mapsource and it seems to be complete.

    That’s why it didn’t load then that one wasn’t designed to load ;) it was only for a reference
