Pete knows whose username went with who so I hope he can shed some light for us.





Three 1100s and three 1300s - sorry no flag shot; bit hard to do when it was left at home.

On our way own I'm gonna call into Burra Gorge for a photo or two so I can put that on the calendar.

This didn't happen 520km round trip was enough without adding a detour in - can do when we next go to the Riverland in a couple weeks time.

It looks like a great day.  Sorry I missed it.

It was lovely to have Shillas (Michael) and Sandra along at their first OzSTOC event, riding their newly acquired and immaculate ST1100 with just 38,000km on it. 
Sherg (Warren) & Mars,  and Bodo were other relative OzSTOC newbies at their second RTE, but all are well experienced motorcycle tourers with interesting backgrounds and lots of stories to tell.
We had a terrific day at the old Stanley Bridge Hotel, and were kept entertained by two busloads of young folk celebrating a friends 21st.

Alan has kindly advised that I left the OzSTOC flag home, despite the fact that it sits in a bag next to my helmet, so apologies for their being no "Flag" photo.    I might need to move it to a permanent position in the top box.

Did anyone ask the staff why there were three ladders hanging from the ceiling in the dining room??   

We ... were kept entertained by two busloads of young folk celebrating a friends 21st.

So that's what that was.  I had a great time.  Apologies for shooting off early but it's because I did I'm still alive to attend the next one

Thanks for the ride reports guys

I took some GoPro video on the way back between Lobethal and Gawler and I took these as well.

Hi Pete, there's always another one. By the way you can post up a ride your self on a day that suits you. All you need is a location and a time to meet and a few weeks notice. We can help if needed.

Thanks Alan, Appreciate it..
