Registered and accommodation booked.
Is that with airfares ?
Current plan is I will ride the Wing over and attend the OzSTOC meeting and then go onto the Ulysses AGM.
Minimum for Theresa will be Toowoomba but more planning to be done before the trip is finalised.

Shiney and PC stepped out to test ride the National Rally Ride today, and had lunch with Gadget and I at the Southern Hotel here in Toowoomba, to make sure we have the most awesome event we possibly can!
So we had better see you all signing up!!
Shiney and PC heading off this morning after dropping in for a coffee at Hip Pocket

Whats better than 3 ST's? why 4 of course!

And of course the long hard deliberations at the Hotel over Roast and a drink.....please excuse Gadgets lack of shirt, we took him out the back, beat him, and made him say 25 hail mary's and beg forgiveness....

As if I'd go around shirtless in public. (There aren't enough welding goggles in the world for that to happen.)

PC and Wild Rose have them now out on the National Rally Saturday ride route!
Post by: ST2UP on September 04, 2014, 07:21:08 AM
Having a few members on the team who have not yet attended a National Rally sure is give a new prospective to the structure.
The Venues we attend we're very well researched and bike friendly and will suit our needs and leave members with a tremendous Darling Downs experience of this part of QLD.
The ride route is a safe and picturesque route on good quality roads that leave you relaxed and able to enjoy the atmosphere :like
Just some of the ideas that will be implemented to enhance the National Rally experience from this team is having your Saturday lunch prepaid at the meet and greet on the Friday so no cues of members at a single teller or eftpos machine......leaves you more time to enjoy other company and streamlines the ride.
The OzSTOC shop will have a quantity of Aust Post pre-paid satchel available for purchase......these can be purchased from the shop filled with your local purchases and then sent by the shop to your home address after rally completion......a brilliant addition for motorcycle travellers who are travelling with bulging panniers.
So well done to the Toowoomba team.....they are going to provide us a tremendous National Rally experience in 2015.
Cheers

OzSTOC has implemented a member information package so we can broadcast updated and accurate information direct to your mobile by SMS/TXT message (This is a no reply service) This information will directly related to the event and keep you appraised of any changes that may effect you and your National Rally experience.
If you haven't already done so YOU need to submit your mobile No. to Pockey at pillions@ozstoc.com to be apart of this. DONT presume we have your number as it was on your registration form.....we can only add you if YOU request to be apart of the group message service. (As many people don't wish to be just added by default)
Here is the poll OzSTOC conducted http://ozstoc.com/index.php?topic=7065.0 (http://ozstoc.com/index.php?topic=7065.0) 60 members voted that they would join the program, to date we have 36 who have submitted their mobile :whistle
We need to program these numbers into the system before rally and wont be doing it during.....so get your number to Pockey so we all receive current information during our events :thumbsup

I would have liked to do this one but my priority is a $700 repair for the car in Jan/Feb 2015. That being said, 2016 is a definite goer. Two birds with one stone sort of event for me as my sis lives in Perth so depending on rally location I might have free accommodation. Even Heather has confirmed it's a solo trip for me.

Shame you don't have a tick box for New Zealand! I had to put down NSW which is where I'll ship the bike into. I'll target a delivery date of Wed 18th March then ride up to the Rally Thurs & Fri. I might ask for some riding company for the trip up there closer to the day.
The plan is to then take a couple of weeks to loop around Daintree, Alice Springs and the coast back to Sydney.

I also have to give my apologies as a very important event to my extended family is on the same weekend. So it will be up to Gavo, STray and Glen to uphold the best of the west traditions.

Has been a while since I was last back there so it should be interesting to see how much it has changed.
Trina and I will be doing a leisurely run back via Brisvegas, Sydney, Canberra , (maybe Melbourne), then the coast home.
Looking to allow 1.5 to 2 weeks for return run. (Any longer and my customers would mutiny on me)

That's really cool! Thanks for giving us internationals a mention.
The bike's booked in with Mainfreight so fingers crossed it should be waiting for me at their depot in Botany for when I fly in on the Wednesday before the Rally. I might hit you guys up for some riding company from Springwood (brother-in-laws place) up to Toowoomba over the Thursday & Friday?

Hi Jim,
I'll be riding up leaving Springwood in the Blue Mts on the Thursday morning. Was hoping to start out via the Putty Rd but happy to RV with you anywhere along the way for the ride if that's going to work. (My bike's getting shipped across from New Zealand so I pick it up from Mainfreight's Botany depot the day before if everything goes according to my cunning plan).
Can't help you with not getting lost in the Queensland hinterland though - might need to rely on Uncle Google again or get the local OzSTOCers to send out a search & rescue. We turn left at Brisbane don't we?
Cheers,
Rob

Sounds like a plan to me, always interesting getting lost anyway, hope the OzSTOC search & rescue have made a note of this so they are fully prepared :rofl I am sure its left at Brisbane just looked at the map and it gets a bit wet if we make a right :grin. Happy to meet up anywhere thats good for you.
Anybody got a spare bed in a cabin for the weekend ? or should I dust the tent off ready :eek
Cheers Jim

We can work on the details closer to the day and maybe get some other OzSTOCers to tag along with.
Can't help with the cabin though as I'm tenting for Toowoomba and the ensuing two and a bit weeks of Oz riding. (Did a nice lap around our North Island over Christmas and didn't have a single snake, scorpion or dingo try to crawl in the tent with me)

Hi All,Jim I'm riding up from Picton on the Thursday, via Putty Rd > the New England Hwy and will go straight thru to Toowoomba, we could meet at Singleton, I'd be happy to have you along with.... and Rob Gardener if Rob's fine about it..Rob I would meet you at Windsor or Colo Heights (i think) the Putty is a good ride. :grin
Just filled in the registration form so I am in for my first ST rally in Australia, if anybody has space in their cabin for a fully house trained non snoring pom please let me know, it would also be nice to meet up with anybody passing the Gosford area on their way up to the rally if you fancy some company plus it will save me getting lost :||||
:beer jim
I havent set my route as yet so happy to change and mayB use Buckets Way then Thunderbolts to Uralla then join New England thru to Toowoomba, OR go weST further and use the Newell..
LQQk at a map and let me know your thoughts,,, my contact # is below so if you want to chat :thumb sometime about it, text and I'll ring you back ..
:think1 Are you doing Brooklyn RTE. we could meet and chat then even..

Hi Rob,
That all sounds good to me looks like we should have some company hopefully (johnnyYTED)
I may well be camping as well ( did a four day kayak/camping trip recently and as you say nothing tried to join me in the tent (thank god still getting used to the wild life over here).
look forward to meeting up and enjoying the ride up.
Cheers jim

Hi,
That would be great to meet up for the ride to Toowoomba, still finding my way about locally so to ride up with you guys would be perfect for me.
I will definately be going to the RTE at Brooklin so it would be to meet up.
My number is 0423151073.
I will google map the route you suggest but being so new to Australia every road is a new road/experience so I really am happy to go where ever you guys think is best.
Cheers Jim

Due to time constraints, I'm now flying to Brisbane and will be attending the rally in a cage. Better that than not at all I guess. I'll still bring helmet and jacket so I can hitch a ride for the organised rides
There will have to be some sort of game of chance to settle the argument over who gets the new slim Wendy as their pillion. :grin

If you need a lift, my wife will be taking the convertible, and I'll be riding up solo, so we could pick you up at the airport and you couuld choose. :thumbs
We're on the North side of Brisbane and have to go past the airport on the way to Toowoomba anyway.

A run down the highway from Townsville to Tweed Heads, then turn around and head back up the highway to Toowoomba would be around 1667K :beer

There was an argument between my mate, his fiancée and my wife (Carrol)... I backed my wife and as a result were uninvited to the wedding.
But looking on the bright side, we are now going to the rally.

I wonder if I can engineer something like that to get "uninvited" to a family reunion on the outlaws' side on the October long weekend. :think1
There's a great FarRally that weekend. :'(

Does this mean I've registered (I don't remember if I have)? Or does it just mean that I've indicated that I'll be at Toowoomba?
I'll be arriving with a mate, Derek (BMW 1100GS). By my reckoning that makes 98 attending, getting close to the 100 tally.
We will only be there on the Friday night (heading further north around Saturday lunch time).

Yes, I’m very much looking forward to the ride up with you guys as well.
(Don’t tell Streak but it’s not entirely about the Rally – I do plan on going a little further afterwards; Two and a half weeks’ worth in fact to take in Kings Canyon, Uluru and the Great Ocean Road etc. The plan is to then leave the ST with the Brother-in-Law at Katoomba and come back in July to 'finish off' WA, Broome & Darwin.)

So I’m claiming the lead in the competition for most km’s traveled towards Toowoomba to date. The distance:
Palmerston North to Auckland (all be it in a Mainfreight truck), 600 km.
Port of Auckland to somewhere off the west coast in the Tasman, 500 km.
(My rules are you don’t actually have to be riding the bike)

We may have to have a convening of the OzSTOC Supreme Court, to closley look at the Rules. I think the wording is "Has Ridden the furthest to an OzSTOC Rally". Not forgetting the Gentleman Travelling from the US of course, as He would take out the (Furthest Travelled to Attend).
Of course, the presentation of supporting documents attached to the appropriate number of the form $100, may have a bearing on the decision reached.

So my point here is that it needs to be fair and awarded to the person who has travelled the furtherest direct distance to the rally while riding their bike and returning on their bike. Using the current method if you live in Brisbane and travel to the rally via Adelaide to Toowoomba then You win and that's not fair on the rider who actually had to ride the furtherest not the furtherest by choice.
To cater for our international members who have made an extraordinary effort to attend, then perhaps a separate recognition should be made.
Hmmm,

For the 2013 rally the award was given to the person who had ridden the furtherest but not necessarily the most direct route. I had ridden from Townsville to Middleton taking the most direct route however the winner had toured parts of WA on holiday which were added to the distance travelled And therefore making that the winner (if I'd known that id have done a few loops in NSW to add some milage)
So my point here is that it needs to be fair and awarded to the person who has travelled the furtherest direct distance to the rally while riding their bike and returning on their bike. Using the current method if you live in Brisbane and travel to the rally via Adelaide to Toowoomba then You win and that's not fair on the rider who actually had to ride the furtherest not the furtherest by choice.
To cater for our international members who have made an extraordinary effort to attend, then perhaps a separate recognition should be made.
Sabie,
Assuming google does basically the shortest distance and not knowing exactly where in Townsville you where living at the time:-
From Google
Townsville to Middleton Caravan Park 2,706 kms
Somewhere close to Gavo's front door to Middleton Caravan Park 2,706 kms
My front door to Middleton Caravan Park 2,778 kms
From BigTed's front door to Midddleton Caravan Park 2,792 kms
So I guess Bigted should be putting nis hand up over both you and me.
Edit, left out 3 other WA members
From somewhere near Johnoj's front door to Middleton Caravan Park 2,773 kms
From somewhere nearSTRay's front door to Middleton Caravan Park 2,773 kms
From Turtle's front door to Middleton Caravan Park 2,774 kms

You make a good point IMHO.
I'd like to undertake an IBA 100CC prior to the Toowoomba event.
I'd ride Canberra to my Sydney start point, to Fremantle then back to Sydney, and on to Toowoomba.
Though I would not expect nor accept an award for most kms ridden to the event.
A fairer rule would be to measure the distance from residence to the annual destination using Google maps, not motorcycle odometers.

I would be more than happy with that and also if it was restricted to STs.In 2013 I simply submitted my kms, I did not make the rules or decide on the recipient and am happy to hand my 2013 award back. This year I won't even enter my kms as I will again be on a GL1500 and going via Sydney, then Tewantin and finally Brisbane Airport.
Post by: Mitch on March 01, 2015, 06:08:52 PM
I also will not enter as I will Riding my Yamaha ST1200,
I received the award in 2012 at Blackheath which I don't intend to hand back. o:)
Also I agree with Sabie and Glen.

Secondly, let's be careful saying the shortest distance via Google as it will put you over dirt especially if your coming from North or Far North Qld (may be a glitch with Google- not sure) to Victorian and South Australian destinations as it takes you down through the centre. There's around 35k's of dirt from Torrents creek to Aramac. To avoid this dirt you have to either travel west to Hughenden, Winton and Longreach or East to Charters Towers, Belyando Crossing and Emerald.
So not just the most direct but the safest most direct route on sealed roads. So if you have a member who has travelled further to stay on the bitumen then they win as opposed to someone who didn't.
Post by: saaz on March 01, 2015, 10:34:06 PM
Originally the greatest distance was all about encouraging members from all over to attend, as at least the first meeting in Blackheath was a real trial run of interest in members attending, so it was a point of conversation to get people talking, as are most of the awards. Now we have members from all over, some flying in and hiring bikes, some on the way to somewhere else, some from overseas and doing other things before and after etc etc.
It's not really about the distance but the journey really, so I don't think we are about to get hung up with IBA style rules about what bike, how you got there etc etc. There are a few other places you can go to do all those sort of rides and get accreditation, with very established rules. I went to a recent Victorian RTE at Forest, but I was going to go to Colac anyway to visit Mum at some time, so I did both together. Total ride distance was about 2000kms, but the RTE bit was really 170kms max from Colac, and that was going the long way back. So it was the shortest RTE I have ever done.
The story of getting to Ozstoc is more about how you got there and why, which is far more important than a competition to win something according to set rules.

1. "Member of the Year" - Selected jointly by the OzSTOC Team and Moderation team over the last 12 mths.
This is Awarded to the member who has consistently been proactive within the club, assisted fellow members and displayed the spirt of the club and its values. (Already selected for engraving purposes)
2. "Best Presented ST". - Selected by the previous years winner if present at rally
This award can go to any ST of any aged just because of the way the ST is presented on the day, the award is only open to ST's.
3. "Most Charismatic ST" - Selected by the OzSTOC Team
This award is for the ST that despite natures best intentions this charismatic bike just refuses to lay down and keeps plugging on in true ST spirit.
4. "National Rallies Silliest Moment" - Selected by the OzSTOC team.
You stuff up and we get a giggle out of it you will soon hear about it on awards night......as some can already attest.
5. "OzSTOC National Rally Wildcard award" - Selected by the OzSTOC team after feedback from members.
This is a wildcard award for any situation that takes our fancy at the time, it could be for a good deed or a particular grand effort that deserves a special mention..... :think1
So be on your best behaviour kiddies, shine up those ST's and do good unto others :p

Well there we go, we just killed the furtherest travelled award .... just knocked out 95% of the members who have a chance at ever winning an award.....
Quiet the opposite Sabie :grin by removing this award and replacing it with another being the "Wild Card Award" it gave far greater eligibility to all members.....the longest distance travelled award only put a very select few members in the pool to chose from :popcorn
We have limited this year to the 5 awards for a number of reasons including purchase and supply. OzSTOC and our supporters pockets are only so deep :think1
We also agreed that having a number of smaller awards took the shine away from the major presentations.
I think we all agree who have attended past National Rallies, that the real award we all receive is the reward of attending :runyay and having the chance to ride, feast, chat with fellow members of this outstanding club ;-*

Post by: Sabie on March 04, 2015, 04:31:42 PM
Now all of the awards have been taken behind closed doors and the winner of each category is chosen by a select few which is not open open to scrutiny.
I feel there should be an "Award Committee" which is made up of a representative from each State and who are not part of Management or the Managements Clique of mates.
Nominations for each category should be submit or called for by management at the end of the year(or a date to be chosen) and the committee selects the winners of each category. There is no need for the committee to meet as all deliberations could be conducted by the forum private message or email and the winners names presented to management prior to the rally by a date to be determined.
This would prevent any nepotism and any cronyism creeping in.

(This is where you jump on me and tell me how wrong I am and how much they disagree Yada yada yada.. You know who you are..)
I don't disagree with you at all Sabie, accept....
we are not a registered club, we don't have a committee, no one has ever been elcected, we don't even have an ABN, the Bank account is still under me with 2 other signatories, in fact I still own the website domain name.
OzSTOC was built on 95% a democracy, and the other 5% is what Desiel and Streak say was going to happen, to which we always consulted many people on what moves we took (which you where one), now that breakdown applies to Saaz, ST2UP and Pocket Stocker.
Diesel and I selected the above people to run OzSTOC when we stood down, some people like it, some don't, it was our decision.
this is not a negative response, just giving you clear facts that while everything your saying is very true in the right Club setup, but OzSTOC is not that setup.
as for changing the award from longest travelled to the wild card award, that was MY idea that I took the national team who like it and went with it.
the awards your talking about apart from the Member of the year, is all awarded to people at rally for things that happen at rally, so there is no way we can have committiees to decide all that.
it has always been decided around a table at 5pm in the evening after national rally ride to see what events have unfolded.
I know it is what you would like to happen, but this is not the setup that will ever happen.
Diesel and I always said if we eve had to go committees and fully fledged club status we are out, as the drama and politics is not worth it.
we have an amazing group of people here that have assembled over the last 4 years, I love it just the way it is.
I have full trust in the 3 people in charge at this time, just like when they hand it over when they are done, they will have full trust as well.
Cheers
Streak

I disagree ST2UP, the longest distance award was the only award that was open where the membership could see the process whereby the most kilometres travelled equalled a winner. The winner should change with each new year due to State rotation.
Now all of the awards have been taken behind closed doors and the winner of each category is chosen by a select few which is not open open to scrutiny.
I feel there should be an "Award Committee" which is made up of a representative from each State and who are not part of Management or the Managements Clique of mates.

Hi Sabie,
I don't usually buy into this type of discussion but, even though I agree with you in principle, the reality is that these so called "Awards" are just a bit of fun at the National Rally dinner. Sure, they are arbitrary and not particularly serious. Nobody I know comes along hoping to win one. I am not being critical of your comment, in fact, as I said, I agree, I guess I am just saying, don't stress about something that is not that important. Are you gong to be at Toowoomba?. If so, Ros and I look forward to catching up with you.
Cheers
Dick

Sorry our limited leadership skills and decisions have again displeased you. I guess we will have to try and apply ourselves even further. :Stirpot :grin
We are learning that to see the club grow in a direction it is so very important to listen to feedback from all members. The feedback that we regularly receive is reassuring us that the club is heading in the right direction for the overwhelming majority of people, and that I think is the best we can hope for for a club that is informal like ours.
It may be the 10 hr shift I just finished but I know that if I borrow a free book from the library and I dont enjoy it I dont continue to read chapter after chapter of the book I dont enjoy and I dont agree with, I put it back on the shelf and grab another book and see if it is to my liking.
Good njght all and cant wait to see you all at Toowoomba.

And Pokey, I didn't make you respond after a 10 hour shift, you chose to, please don't insinuate you've had to in order to accommodate me. I take it by your library book reference you're asking me to leave the "Club" or find another club to join. Why is it nobody can voice their opinion or have an alternate view or opinion contry to the management ??? (well not a committee it seems)
and Dick, yes I know its for a bit of fun but its still got to be fair and equal and thats why I suggested to place the selection I to state Representatives and definitely not a committee and away from the clique that exists.

That’s the downfall of doing ones own maintenance - one tends to overlook important stuff.
I’m on 110,000km. Is there a thread somewhere I can read up on about this timing belt thingy so I can have something to worry about on the ride up?

I have to say this is all very strange, the last 2 years, we would be packed to leave, shiney and I would be set for our normal two weeks inside each others heads, instead i am riding 4.2km to the caravan park after driving there 2 or 3 times to drop off stuff.

Gavo is getting close, he is heading for Coonabarabran having just had a coffee. He is only 2"" away on the map, he might get to Toowoomba tonight.
6 hours via Google Maps, so he'll be there in time for dinner (if he doesn't evaporate on the Newell in 40o temps! :eek

A huge CONGRATULATIONS to all those who had a hand in organising this years rally, particularly to the long-suffering wives who are all unsung heroes and an integral part of this team. :-++ :-++
A meagre 590k's for the weekend for me. :grin

We arrived home about 12.30 safely after a slow ride with trailer got a little better after a fruit/veg/meat stop.
rebuild will commence tomorrow with a strip down..
Had a bloody great time as usual and made new friends as usual.
The dinner was bloody great and I enjoy my pork.
PC have you had some more water yet.
Lesley came with me for the first time and as a pillion for the second time in her life handled it with ease (first time was 1970)
Unpacked everything and had a coffee then wanted to start all over again as was first ride since last AGM.
So come on Perth.

Can't wait to catch up with people on RTE s and now have a goal to complete a Far Ride . Only downside found out that the internal waterproof lining of my new OZSTOC jacket is too short by about 4 inches. So got wet. Small price to pay for such a magnificent weekend.
A special nod to all who organized the get together. It was magnificently prepared and seemed to run like clockwork .

As first-timers at a National Rally we had an absolute blast this weekend! It was great to see so many who had come so far and it was a pleasure to meet lots of new faces.
To everyone who had a hand in organising this event - THANK YOU !! I know it was over a year in the planning, and the plans paid off. Everything went so smoothly ( if there were any glitches, they passed in-noticed).
Saturday's ride was excellent: from the pre-ride briefing, smoko at Rudd's Pub at Nobby, to Lunch at Leyburn; all excellent.
The Rally Dinner at Regents on the Lake was terrific too. A great meal and many stories and laughs.
Congratulations to all award winners - particularly to Diesel and Streak on their Life Membership.
Now to start planning for PERTH 2016 👍👍

I apologise for arriving at the rally site a day early so I could attend to some business. The park managers were pleased to take some extra money. Also I extended my stay in the caravan park for another day after the rally finished. I hope you can forgive me. I'll try to do better next year.
For those who asked, I completed an SS1600 on the way back. It was to be an SS2000 but I encountered a storm just north of Gundagai so I made Gundagai the turn point for home.

After leaving Toowoomba Theresa and I called in at the Esk Bakery (along with a few other rally attendees) before heading for afternoon tea at my brothers in Brisbane. We were about to head for the airport when the heavens opened and I got to take Theresa to the airport in my brothers IS350 Lexus in the heaviest rain I have driven in for a long time. So Theresa arrived home late Sunday night and after a cup of coffee with atoyot in Orange I am now in Wodonga. Jut over 7,900 kms since leaving Perth.
It was definitely a decent shower. I drove from Toowoomba to Brissy in it. Not the heaviest I've driven or ridden in by any means though

Man killed in Toowoomba region motorcycle crash
UPDATE: Police are investigating a fatal traffic crash that occurred yesterday near Emu Creek.
Between 4.30pm and 5pm a motorcycle and a white sedan crashed while travelling in opposite directions on Pierces Creek Rd, between Brothers Rd and Woolshed Rd near Emu Creek north of Crows Nest.
The male motorcycle rider, believed to be in his 50s and travelling with a group of riders died at the scene.
The 28-year-old female driver of the sedan was transported to Toowoomba Hospital with minor chest injuries.
Another man in his 50s was also taken to Toowoomba Hospital suffering emotional stress from the incident.
The Forensic Crash Unit is investigating.
EARLIER: A motorcycle rider was fatally injured yesterday afternoon about 4.30pm when the bike he was riding collided with a car.

I hope this was none of us.
Right area, but none of the OzSTOCers went that way, especially in a group, that I'm aware of.
We would certainly have heard through our network by now, if it was an ST rider.

After leaving Toowoomba Theresa and I called in at the Esk Bakery (along with a few other rally attendees) before heading for afternoon tea at my brothers in Brisbane. We were about to head for the airport when the heavens opened and I got to take Theresa to the airport in my brothers IS350 Lexus in the heaviest rain I have driven in for a long time. So Theresa arrived home late Sunday night and after a cup of coffee with atoyot in Orange I am now in Wodonga. Jut over 7,900 kms since leaving Perth.
It was definitely a decent shower. I drove from Toowoomba to Brissy in it. Not the heaviest I've driven or ridden in by any means though
This was about 5.30 - 6.00 pm what time did you get to Brisbane?

I got to Stimpy's place just before 6pm, so it was the same storm. As I said, respectable, but definitely not the worst I've been through :eek

Glad QLD could put on some cooler conditions for us, that was very thoughtful.
4,600km round trip. shortest day aside from the rally run was Toowoomba to Coffs harbour the rest was 600+ days
Russell Day Long seat is amazing once again lives up to the hype.

I must have been an hour in front of you as I just missed the rain on commissioners flat road and decided to go the 'long way' over the top and just over the hill got SMASHED by the rain..... absolutely SMASHAROOD!!!!!!!!
Thankfully I had someone in front of me with bright tail lights so I just followed that with plenty of breaking room.
I did get a bit of Jock wear just out side of Gin Gin when my front wheel started aquaplaning! ..... that is one scary feeling! I think the trailer dragging me may have helped keep me upright ...... or it was just superior riding skills and not panicking like a little 5 year old and grabbing the breaks.

it was the Commissiones flat turn off we went up and over too to be able to have a white line to follow. Ian had 3 or more cars in front of him so with the heavy rain, the spray and my glasses fogging up I lost vision except for Ians taillights. Ii missed the black suv by literally 1 or 2 inches at 80kph.
have you given any thought that the trailer may have contributed to the front aquaplaning due to the lift znd drag force on the front wheel??
Post by: Pezzz on March 26, 2015, 08:28:45 PM
Probably ... i was more worried about getting out of Brisbane ... it is a lot bigger than i thought. Sydney at 2pm was very confusing and nerve wracking. Canberra at 5pm and again at 8:30 this morning was just cruisey .... and Melbourne at 5:30pm was rather daunting today.We were riding around Brisbane in that rain heading from my friend's place to my sister's.

I hadn't actually thought that might be an issue ......... but what I do know was that I am due for front tyre replacement so there definitely would not have been much (any) water dispersion and I did hit the sheet water at a reasonable clip.
a good mixture of both actually.

Probably because Canberra is a planned city and the Canberra Council does a reasonable job with road maintenance. Although they are likely to stuff up the traffic flow by installing a light rail system.

Went directly to the Esk Bakery on Sunday am from where we were staying out at Meringandan, a good ride with a few Ozstoc's pulling in on their way towards home or onward journeys. Our apologies, we missed saying farewell to everyone, also a big thank you to the organisers for a job well done, it was a great weekend.
Got home safe on Wednesday evening, 3,790 kms, our ST1300 never missed a beat as usual, the weather was a real mixed bag but nothing us Melbournians haven't seen before!!
Enjoyed the ride Murwillumbah to Kyogle, also Mullaney via Dunedoo into Dubbo, makes a change from the Newell.

Had a great time at rally, thanks to all who participated,

Rode along the Great Alpine Road, God it lives up to its name, also dame cold at 5pm on top of Mt Hotham.
I had to do an emergency rear tyre change yesterday in Ouyen, the local tyre dealer had never done a motorcycle tyre before & didn’t want to try, I asked the local auto electrician and he allowed me to use his workshop to do the tyre change. I got a new tyre couriered up from Mildura, 5 hours later back on the road.
Had a ball and now home safely after 5800 Klm's travelled.

Did anyone else notice an abnormal amount of traffic light cameras in Toowoomba? Seemed every light I went through fired off my TomTom alert
Lots of hoons and scoff-laws up there. :OldMan
If I lived in a relatively small city with that many traffic lights, I think I'd get tired of stopping every block for red lights, especially in the middle of the night/ early morning.

Between 4.30pm and 5pm a motorcycle and a white sedan crashed while travelling in opposite directions on Pierces Creek Rd, between Brothers Rd and Woolshed Rd near Emu Creek north of Crows Nest.
The male motorcycle rider, believed to be in his 50s and travelling with a group of riders died at the scene.
The 28-year-old female driver of the sedan was transported to Toowoomba Hospital with minor chest injuries.
Another man in his 50s was also taken to Toowoomba Hospital suffering emotional stress from the incident.
The Forensic Crash Unit is investigating.
EARLIER: A motorcycle rider was fatally injured yesterday afternoon about 4.30pm when the bike he was riding collided with a car.
Officers from the Queensland Fire and Emergency Service attended the scene on Blackbutt Range Rd at Emu Ck just north of Crows Nest.
A spokesperson said State Emergency Service staff were still at the scene late last night.
I can provide an update on this crash. The deceased was Andrew H (from Melbourne Western suburbs). He was one of the six friends Derek and I were meeting at Esk on Saturday 21 March.
After a night in Esk and two at Rainbow Beach, we were heading for a night at Crows Nest when the crash occurred. None of us witnessed the crash, so we don't know what really happened. The Police have told us that it was a high speed head-on and Andrew was most likely killed instantly - we take that to mean he didn't suffer.
Andrew is survived by his wife Karen (no kids), our thoughts and prayers are with her.
RIP Andrew
The other 50 yo taken to hospital was one of the other riders, he was first on the scene and tried to help until emergency service personnel attended, he took things pretty hard at the time, but is okay now.

I saw about 5 really expensive camera's on the group ride along with what seemed like just as many people on the side of roads taking photos...
Where are they?

Any chance of purchasing more of the rally patches? Would like one or two more for other jackets.
Good call Pezzz.
I'm kicking myself for not getting more of the previous years patches from Glen :fp
Hi STimpy,
Sorry for such a long delay in replying.
I was sure I had some from both Ballarat and Middleton but can only find two from Middleton.
The cost of these was covered when we did the last issue with a small profit going to OzSTOC so if you want a Middleton one it is yours, shall just leave it to you to give a small donation to OzSTOC. I am sure I could get some more of both Ballarat and Middleton made if these are required.
