Afterlife, up there for the climate, down there for the company.

Hi Team,
Neil & Valerie will not be able to attend the Ballan RTE on the 23rd of October, we will be in Sydney for our grand daughters birthday.
The 12th November to either Naracoorte SA or Alexandra Vic, will be out for us too, we have a wedding here in beautiful Castlemaine.
Hopefully we can make the December ride, have a great time without us !!
Cheers
Neil & Valerie :slvr13 : o:) :like

Lunch it is (just updated #1 post).  Some may be staying overnight, if there's any interest they'll post or send a message.

Looks like a freeway to and from this time. Was going to go up and around, but the smart money will be on the A8. Oh well  :eek

Being the ultimate optimist, I`ll brave the elements, and be on my bike. After all, I cleaned the screen the other day from the Mannum trip, so I`d better ride it.
Looks like the weather has fizzed out, again. Just Melbourne hey?

Leaving St Helena at 10:30am, taking the easy route, could do with the company.
