I have it on good authority that my Cabin Mates will have my bed turned down for my arrival and a nice cup of cocoa before I retire for the evening.

Saturday Morning a newspaper, crisp and ironed and a lovely breakfast with my smoking jacket and pipe layed out awaiting for me to rise and partake of the day...

Ahh, cabin buddies are just the best aren't they..

Not long to go now, and I can't wait.
New back tyre on, new timing belt done, full service,  now just ready for the word go.
I will be riding bike up but it will be getting put on trailer to come home, we are hoping to be left this Saturday and doing some touristy things on way up, and on way home, got people we need to try and see, so had to come to a compromise, and the missus can't sit all that distance on a bike so she's driving the car and trailer up.

See ya all soon,

Have safe journeys

I'm pretty sure I'll have to stop half-way between Brissie and Toowoomba because my missus isn't up to that sort of distance these days.    :fp

Hey does my ST have a timing belt? Who’d a thought…
That’s the downfall of doing ones own maintenance - one tends to overlook important stuff.
I’m on 110,000km. Is there a thread somewhere I can read up on about this timing belt thingy so I can have something to worry about on the ride up?
