Sorry guys, clean bike means some rain today. I will leave well after lunch so you'll miss it.
Off to Uni now for a few hours mental stimulation. See you about 7pm at the Bosuns if you aren't asleep.

To all participants, I wish you a safe ~~and bloody uncomfortable~~ ride.
Stay vigilant, aware, hydrated and happy.

To the organisers/helpers of the event....

Thanks a million for your efforts.

Will look forward to reading about everyone's adventures shortly.

Good luck folks. Earn yourselves a 'very hard to earn' IBA number.

Cheers, Diesel

good luck guys

Well, if I was doing this ride then I would have failed before I even started. 2am is when I'd finish not start.......and it's my normal go to bed time and even then I'm still wide awake.

Biggles · « **Reply #237 on:** October 17, 2014, 06:27:26 PM »

I'm with Alan. I go to bed at 12:00 to get up at 7:30, not to bed at 7:30 to get up at 12!!
Anyway, it's all very quiet, but I'll bet there aren't too many sleeping!
Carpark full of bikes. Looking good to go. More later.

The hardest is the first night then it just flows on from there

Ride 20 sleep 4. Wombattle is in da house. All the kids are trying to sleep but Macas and a Gin and Tonic for me first. Saw lots of lights being set up around Macksville for night roadworks. Rode through solid rain at Buledelah. Can't wait to head back down through it again.

I am getting paid to ride over the next few days so the smile will be hard to get off my face

Wishing everyone and uneventful and safe ride. Can't wait to read the respective reports. Make sure you all take it easy getting through Sydney at that time.
