For what it is worth - a few of us Northern Suburbians are meeting at Woodford Bakery at 0810 hrs.

But we won't be buying any       because they are not our sponsor!     

See you there or at Esk Bakery.

Diesel, which side of the road is the Woodford Bakery on? can you link a Google map location?

Carrol and I should be heading through Woodford at around that time so we might join you there

Cheers

Hi Champ - see here


Pan it left and you'll see it is next to the IGA.


Hope this helps.


Also - Streak - I am pleased to announce that you can add Beatup, Diesel and Gadget to the list.     


Haven't heard back from HarieG


Cheers, Diesel

[Gadget]

I'm planning to meet up with Diesel and Co at Woodford.  I'll be leaving Kallangur at around 7:20.

[Dennisgw]

Sounds like a good idea. Terri is away for the weekend and I was keen for a ride somewhere.

Thought I might take a northern route and ride via Kallangur, Dayboro, Woodford, Kilcoy and Somerset. Riding time from Nundah is about 2.5 hours and a good ride for anyone who might like a few twisties if there is anyone else interested? It will mean about  a 0630 start for me.

Ride back to Brisbane can be via Glorious and Nebo, Glorious and Samford or the Warrego. Whatever takes your fancy.

Cheers

Dennis

Hey Gadget, seems we were thinking the same at the one time. Can I meet up with you in Kallangur?

[Biggles]

On Wednesday I said I'd meet up with STrider20 at the Samford Caltex at 8:00.
I'll be there.  If he's not, I'll head out over Glorious myself and see youse at Esk.
It'll be hot (but not up on Mt Glorious   :)

Cheers,
Biggles

Bike is packed with lots of goodies, just going to meet up with Leo and we are heading for Esk, everyone have a fantastic day!

[Whizz]

Guys, did anyone pick up a glasses case this morning after we all left for the ride up and down the hill? I hope so because I can;t find mine and I'm typing this by memory because I can;t see the keyboard, it's all a blur! If anyone has them please let me know and I'll come pick them up.

Ta

[Biggles]

Nope, sorry Whizz.  Sounds like a trip to the Chemist to get a pair of reading glasses for $20 until you can get to your optometrist.


 

[Whizz]

Just got back from the Chemist with a pair of cheap ones, and they feel WEIRD!!! 

Thanks for the big letters by the way 

PS. have you ever mapped you speed against your engine revs?, because when I tagged on to you coming back this morning I noticed that 120 kph =  4,000rpm exactly! After you peeled off to Somerset, TJ and I continued on to Blacksoil then I went right, he went left.

The first part of the run was heaven early this morning, cool and pleasant, the ride home was not so pleasant by any means. 

Had a great morning and was very pleased to meet up with everyone.

120 kph  !!  ??  Couldn't have been me!   

But yes, every 30 kph = 1000 RPM (in top gear, of course).  Used that before.  That's INDICATED.  Remember, our speedos over-read by 9%.  So 120 indicated is a metric tad over 100.   

I stopped to get a pic and a pumpkin and a bunch of hoons tore past, followed by STrider20.  Up the road a little ways, Plod was handing out a performance award to an unfortunate young fellow.

[Biggles]

Looking forward to Beatup's photos of the pageant.

Here's the planning stage:



STREAK: "Now if you ride at this angle, we can fit you in the photo."

DIESEL: "While you're rabbiting on, I'll take a secret video of Beatup's surprised looks..."

BEATUP: "It'll never work!!  Never does!  Yers are useless as photographic models!"

[Brock]

Same for the 1100, the white ones speedo is accurate, ( ubless out of spec tyre is fitted). I have checked my speedo with a GPS as well.

The speed for a given RPM is good to know, if you have a tyre change and the speed indication is different then a GPS check would be a good idea. The 1100 gets speed indication from the front wheel. the 1300 from a gearbox sensor. The 1100 with different front tyres will have indication differences. A 1300 will be driven at different speeds for different rear tyres.

[Streak]
