2005 Blue ST1300 for sale at Brisbane Motorcycles yesterday.  38,700 km  $10995.
Card popped in its pie warmer.
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

Spotted a Gold ST1100 on Oxford Street, Mt Pleasant last Thursday 15th May. Chased him down as he had a blown headlight bulb.
Had no card   :spank , but wrote site address down on piece of paper with his first mod looking to be the H4 conversion.

Wallet now restocked with cards ...   :fp

This is a reverse spot!!. We were lunching at Peterborough SA today on our Red Centre tour (day 7 of 30) and were accosted by a couple of locals in the street wanting to give us an OZSTOC card. I had to show them my OZSTOC hat and OZSTOC patch on the back of my jacket to prove I was already a member.
Turned out to be Alan and Heather (Alans1100). We enjoyed a nice chat before going on our separate ways (we bound for Port Augusta). Just shows to go you, you can't go anywhere without being sprung by someone from OZSTOC. I bet not many ST's get through Peterborough without being recruited. Well done Alan and nice to meet you and Heather. Look forward to maybe catching up with you at one of our future rallies.
Cheers

We've had a few bikes of various sorts go through town in the last week or two with most heading to/from The Alice and it is quite rare for us to see another ST when we venture to the shop so we pounce on them.

If we didn't have to get fuel in the car before we went to Jamestown to get some wood for the fire we would have missed them.

Nice to meet them as well. We're not sure on Queensland yet but WA in 2016 is a safe bet as we can see my sis at the same time. Hope they have a safe trip.

Spotted today, a beautiful Burgundy red ST1300 on the Townsville Ring Road heading north. I followed him to the next set of red lights jumped out and gave him a card.

Looked to be on the way home from work.

Let's hope a new member in the making

Spotted a burgundy 1100 yesterday at the local bike shop, having a fuel pump replaced and a local guy owns it.   A good friend of mine owns Singleton Motorcycles and my eldest son is a mechanic there.   Asked them to let the owner know about us, didn't have a card.   On way home down main street spotted a red 1300 heading south towards the Putty Rd, gave a wave.
Cheers
