Saturday's looking like a good day.



A good day for me for choosing to go to Tassie for the weekend.

Still time to add your name to the list, I'll confirm numbers with pub tomorrow evening.

Hey Nigel, don't forget the VIC flag.




What flag?

Safe travel to all attending, someone pass on my regards to all attending, please?

I go into hospital tomorrow morning, am unsure yet if I have to stay there tomorrow night.

Cheers! ++

Another enjoyable RTE done and dusted.  Ppopeye has the group photo so I look forward to seeing that.  I've arrived at my accommodation for tonight, Alfredton (Ballarat) and shall be riding back to Adelaide tomorrow.

Going back the long way Bodo?


As you say done and dusted but not much dust to be seen. Good roll up though.




The odd photo is me on Petes old bike in 13.

Probably not.  More than likely Western/Dukes Highway and down the hill.

Just a quick add on , got there ok although on many minor roads. Once again didnt have a clue where I was, till I was there. Came in from the Geelong side, thru Anakie, bit of persistance with the rain but still good. Always great to catch up with the, now pensioners of the crew. Nice turnout. Good food. Great to see everybody with a smile. Rolled the dice with the return. GPS set for no freeways/tollways. Took me thru Creswick Daylesford Trentham Woodend Kilmore Wallan Kinglake and Yarra Glen. Bit of patchy rain, but a lot of blue sky too. In about 6.30. Top day, and Michael, seeing that no one mentioned that lazy 50,  food and fuel were covered :butt. Thanks all  only thing that makes this better is Collingwood's loss
