I'll wait for the pix with the roaring wind off the ocean with freezing rain before I get too jealous.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

G'day Kev,


Such an exhilarating, smooth video with matching soundtrack. Well done!  :thumbs


We went to Tassie in December yonks ago and wore jumpers in the middle of Summer. But the video makes the place look so summery. It's all a matter of acclimatisation I spose. Anyway m8, good video but how do u xplain the ocean on the left side in some of the pix?  :crazy

Good one Kev,


That's so obvious I'm kicking myself. The idiot inside rears his stupid self from time 2 time. But I just laugh and go on 2 my next delusion!  :whistle :crazy


As far as the weather goes we came from Western NSW to Tassie and enjoyed the trip immensely but were not acclimatised. Loved the place and would Go back 2moro and didn't realise it is M/C heaven. Didn't have a bike at that particular point in time.

Hi Kev,
I thought I recognised that bit of road. Very nice and a hell of a lot better than the commute I used to do through Sydney traffic before I retired.  :thumbs Now I can pick the roads I want to ride, when I want to ride  :thumb Which would you prefer!
Hope you are well.
Cheers

You can only find roads like that up north, something to do with being a marginal electorate.
