Fires in Queensland
« on: November 29, 2018, 06:22:37 PM »
Hoping everyone is all right in the fires in central Queensland
Hoping John & Kate are all right at Mackay
Also lots of fires around Rockhampton
Our worst fires in Queensland

Hey Leo & fellow OzSTocers... all good here at Mackay... a bit hairy at work today passing through the fire and smoke areas along the Peak Downs Hwy... with 52000Lts of Dieso on board... the Eungella/Finch Hatton area has taken a bit of a beating, with much of the area from Finch Hatton, right up to Eungella (The Chalet, Goodes Lookout and the township), being directly effected and having to be evacuated... we don't yet know how much of the area has been burned.... maybe in a few weeks time, we'll take a ride up to Goodes Lookout and let you know how things have changed.  Cheers, John & Kate.

When we rode up in October there had been extensive fires through the Marlborough region.  They'd be glad now that all that fuel has gone.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott
