I am safe at West Wyalong after a 900km wet and stormy ride from home. It has not been a pleasant day.
Got in to Walcha at 1645hrs to find out the whole town was in blackout. Dark rumbling skies were threatening as I looked for accommodation (silly me didn't book ahead). By 1715, the skies opened up and dumped a huge amount of rain and hail for about 10-15 minutes, then stopped as quickly as it started. Got a room at Walcha Motel. Nice and cozy. Now, lets hope power comes back on and maybe I can have tea tonight. Any one else in Walcha tonight?
Good to catch up again. Hope everybody got home safe and dry.
Home safe after a mix of wet, stormy, social and long days. Over 3,200km in my five days from home. Ride Report to follow, but not today as I'm resting. Thanks all for making it worth going so far for a chicken salad wrap and some fish n chips.
I got home after a fun ride home leading Allen my way, saw a couple of HWP's and followed at distance a HWP BMW fluoro , Tamworth to Murrurundi where he was doing Radar in the 50 zone.. Allen & i had lunch at Penrith Panthers on the way past, I dont recommend the chicken Pad Tai;.. there was a seriuos accident just after The Oaks Waved Al off at Picton/Menangle Rd. my butt is sore,, need more meat on the bone. Today I achieved 545 k per tank. a reward for riding responsibly,
