i am interested in this event.
my roster looks clear for this over nite RTE
better start getting some long ride practice

It sounds like a good overnighter for the guys down Brisbane way

So are you going up on Saturday and heading back on Sunday Gaz?

So.....does Honda have a snorkel for an ST?

Anyway, with any luck I should make the revised one!

Cheers

Well sometimes life just sucks I finished work on Tuesday I m now unemployed which isn't too bad as I have been offered work in NZ which means selling the bike, anyone want a nice ST 1100? second bummer I have bitten by something and have spent the last few days sitting in the throne room and my tummy is red swollen and feels like it is on fire. So sadly and i am really bummed about this I doubt I will be able to attend unless things pick up quickly.

Sad news mate

All the best for a speedy recovery and a wonderful new life in NZ

Same sentiments as Shiney expressed... Glad we got the chance to meet you... Best wishes from John & Kate.

Gadget · « **Reply #43 on:** August 19, 2016, 07:44:36 AM »

Sorry to hear Michael. Hope you get well soon.

I still reckon you should put the bike in the shipping container and take it to NZ. Those roads beg to be ridden.

Had a great lunch with Scarlett Thunderbolt (John & Kate) and dbfive (David) in the beautiful town of Yeppoon in glorious sunshine

And got some heaven in a jar thanks to Kate

Hope everyone got home safe n sound and I look forward to catching up again soon.

Cheers Brooke

Hey Everyone.... as Brookester said, we had a great RTE, perfect weather, tasty food and good company... thanks to Brooke for putting Kate and me up and hope to return the favour ~~when the jam runs out~~ in the next few weeks... thanks also for the look-around ride before the RTE. Yeppoon's definitely a lovely place and a mecca for tourists and grey-nomads.

Thanks a lot to DBfive for making the effort, it was great to see you again. Thought we'd close with a couple of comparison photos....

.. the day we were originally gunna run it...

... and the same street today...

.... and one that includes the elusive Brookester

Cheers, John & Kate.

Thanks for sharing

I had planned on driving up to Rocky on Sat andstayingwithmybrotherandhiswife, and sneeking out to this one today and driving back this afternoon, but circumstances with the wrong cot mattresses delivery on Friday and a bad belly also on Friday prevented it.

Glad it went well.

Sorry I missed it.

So sorry I missed it, I did get the bike out and rode up and down the street a few times but there was no way I was up to any sort of ride, I did think about trying to drive but thought better safe then sorry, glad you all had a great time, it is lovely out there. in the mean time I am back to hospital this morning to hopefully sort out what ever is is that has stuffed me up so much.
