I'd love to! I'll chalk it into the calendar, ask the wife nicely and see what's happening on the day.

Not really. I grew up around that area so got sick of the roads :)  If we go down there sometime I can show you some great roads, some don't even go down to the coast...

Sounds great! How does the barloworld holden car yard sound on springvale road? There's not a great deal of places to stop on the freeway or Blackburn. You can lead the way. I've only just moved here from tassie so getting lost is pretty easy for the time being.
There is a very small possibility that I may not make it but at this stage I'm looking pretty good.

Evenin' All...

Mark me down as a starter...can't think of anything other than a weather forecast of a southerly front with snow to 1000 metres on the day that should stop me : ::)

...I'll ride down with  me 'neighbour-over-the-fence'...speaking of which...

AJ,  I spoke with 'silly old fart' from Gisborne and promised I'd name him as the beneficiary for my autograph cap collecting if he turned up...I'll even add me own monica to the pic with me and Stoner and give him it too...can't be fairer than that :wink1

Ciao, the can :)

Hi all

A beautiful day weather wise greeted us for the RTE Wye River. I picked up Walton (John) on the way at Glen Waverley, then headed to Winchelsea BP to meet up with AJ1300 (Adam) and Dickie. We had a chat and headed off via Deans Marsh and Barwon where we decided to head to Apollo Bay instead of Wye River. We arrived at Apollo Bay sometime, got beer and ordered lunch. Had a chat, ate lunch, watched the scenery, then headed off about 2:00pm for home. Adam and Dickie headed off first via Lorne and Deans Marsh, John and i were to go the full length of the great Ocean Rd to Torquay, but changed our minds at Lorne as time was against us and i had a few 100kms still to go. So we too headed up through Deans marsh and took the boring freeway home. I stopped at Narre Warren on way home and sold my bike to a guy there who was interested. Here's a pic of John and i at Wye River Pub where we stopped to check it out on the way home and one of John at a lookout on the way.


Thanks guys for a great day out and some great yarns at the pub. See you all again on the new bike! Whatever it is, GS or V-Strom..

610kms later!

Hey Dickie,
Marissa and I already making plans for another run down your way towards the end of next year.
We have plans to do a loop of the Apple Island. Probably take 3 weeks but will be in touch with more as details fall into place.

Cheers

Hi Barry
Yep.. After 3 months for sale, I had 1 caller and 1 email Wednesday last week, then another caller Saturday. I dropped in to this guy on the way home and he payed the full amount for it. Just need a tyre and a rwc.. Hope I don't regret it :-S The ST doesn't like too many dirt roads...

Nick
PS I will still be around whatever bike i get.
