Border Run - August 2015
« on: January 07, 2015, 10:30:34 AM »
I intend to try and keep up with Lionel and SAAZ for this ride from Canberra.

I might even continue on over to Kalgoorlie to visit a niece and then possible to Monkey Mia, Jurien Bay etc . .

The WA contingent would look forward to catching up with you STroppy, might even allow you to accompany us on our return journey if you are well behaved.

That all sounds good, happy to pay entry fee, I'm rather partial to a nice red, I'll pop a bottle or three in with the socks . .

Just had dinner with my Kalgoorlie niece (shiz in Adelaide visiting) and lined up my accommodation after the Border run. This will be my third trip across the plains . .

Oh sorry rarely well behaved . .

Does that mean STroppy and I can't swap nieces in Kalgoorlie?  WOW:

I plan on doing the Border Run this year as an FR12.   It will be my first FarRide, and I'm able to do it as an FR12 having completed an IBA1600k.

This one is looking like a no go for us......Heather has a date with a bone doc in Adelaide on the 27th July. The doc that did her knee replacement had a look at broken her leg x rays and said he'd remove the screws etc. if that's what Heather wanted. We're going for a 2nd opinion at the RAH (Adelaide Hospital) to see what the people who put the rod etc. in her think about it.

Also we have to spend money and get a new TV. Our current one has lost the wide screen circuit and defaulted back to the old 4:3 screen format. It's seven years old and not much point in fixing it. Not that there's that much to watch on TV anyway.

As of today we have to pull out of this. This time it's me.....I need to see a Urologist on the 24th and he's at Port Augusta.

So it means Balranald might be more doable for us as it was one or the other but not both.

That's a tough break Yorkie, as I was looking forward to catching up with you.   I trust the surgery goes well, and I'm sure we will be having more fun than you will be.
