Yep, I'll be there... Always up for a feed at Martians!! If anyone is travelling from far afield and needs tent space, I can hose the chicken crap off the back lawn for you (about 45mjn from Dean's Marsh)

Put me down for this ride Marcus - all 30 minutes of it.

Since I have committed I will have to fix my radiator.
It held up fine coming back from Logan until the slow work through Ballarat.
Started to overheat again, so stopped in Buninyong, took all the plastic off again,
topped up with water and was fine the rest of the way home.

I have to admit I have not investigated where it is leaking, that's a job on the list in the next few days.

Well, all the plastic off, checked the radiator - its still full after Ballarat ( It was a 3 times fill from Geelong - Logan pub - Ballarat)

Ran the motor with all the plastic off, nice and hot, the thermostat fan stopping and starting - no sign of leaks anywhere.
Bled brakes and clutch while I had clear access. Should have changed the oil while it is easy, didn't have any at home.
Maybe I'll go into town tomorrow and get oil and filter.

Ran the motor up to hot several times and still no sign of leaks. The oil is good colour so water not going in there.
Maybe the gunge I added to the radiator on the way to Logan Pub needed a bit of time to work.

I'll change oil tomorrow and run it a few more times.
If still no leaks it should get me to Deans Marsh anyhow.

Deans Marsh here I come

Just throwing an invitation out there,
Is anyone interested in a Saturday morning ride before we meet at Deans Marsh ?
I am proposing a ride starting at  Waurn Ponds Servo 8.00 am
Waurn Ponds to Anglesea     29.2  kms
Anglesea to Lorne                 29.3  kms
Lorne to Apollo Bay               44.7  kms
Apollo Bay to Lavers Hill        47.3  kms
Lavers Hill to Colac                55.6  kms
Colac to Deans Marsh           33.5  kms

Total trip is approx       240 kms

Its an easy run with good windy roads and good coffee. We would be in Deans Marsh in plenty of time for lunch.
Let me know if you are interested !
