So at what age does this "old enough to know better" kick in?
I believe in the "hereafter", every time I go to the shed I have to think "what am I here after"

I have been told there isnt street lighting on the Nallarbor.. so on the weekend with very much appreciated assiSTance from Abe, with his electrical knowledge and skill  :Blow Stranger got a lighting update.  2x  4"  5 led spots  that could be high or low beam.I opted to juST use the high beam.. Brackets supplied by Dave, which I painted to match Stranger mounted to the police brackets with light angled  slightly outwards and down  to show roadsides.  Dave has then switched on with police switch 1,2,3. 1 is the new spots and 2 has both HID and LED on..3 isnt anything..


 
1 of my HID's has karked it,, so I need to replace it ...
I should be able to find my way in the dark now,,,
A new tyre to be fitted end of the month,,,   lQQking forwarf to heading weST..
A big thank you to Dave for showing me the light...  :like

Steep point is along way north of Perth and the last section of road is somewhat sandy I believe.

A few OzSTOC riders have ridden from the most easterly town, Byron Bay, to the most westerly one, Denham, in under 3 days. Even fewer have completed the round trip in under 6 days.
