As per request from Brock (OzSTOC Admin)
My introduction:
Rode a roadtrail bike through the city for a number of years, until I got enough experience to get a full bike license, got married and promptly was asked to give the bike a miss. Stayed happily married for 25 years when the mrs said "you should get a bike, seeing how you miss it so much". Two weeks later riding my new (for me) ST1100 up from Albany back to my hometown.
no regrets. Seriously considering a road trip towards Carnarvon later this year.

Hello and welcome from Adelaide. :hatwave

Welcome Evert!
I had a similar story, except my initial riding was on the farm and it was my wife who wanted to get back to riding first.
There plenty of wisdom, experience and great friendships to be had here.
Enjoy!

Sorry, I should have responded earlier. Border Village is a good 16 hours from where I am, Probably 14 if I take the Norseman-Hyden gravel road.
I am planning a longish road trip to Canberra early in the new year though. If I can convince a friend to invest in a ST1100. :bl11 :wht11
