STranger and me
After going over Stranger, packing, checking it all again all the weeks of planning was going into ACTION,
Thursday morning up and left home 4.45 As planned I met our NZ member Rob
and BIKERJIMBOB Jim at Windsor 6am,with a full tank,, there was a bit of fog so after a quick welcome to OzSTocrallya for Rob and hi to Jim again, I told them our planned ride. Putty Rd > Muswellbrook >Scone for COFFEE, Uralla 452ks,fuel and lunch then easy ride to Toowoomba via Tenterfield 410k's arriving 6> .630pm an easy ride,,
The Putty is 1 of my favorite roads but with patchy fog and loose gravel on the Singleton end "TwiSTy's" after a 'spraypatch' trucks been though, I took it fairly easy, I'm not used to leading a ride.. and had to think abit more about 'Leading Responsibilty'
As we pulled into McCafe I spotted the firST OzSTOC jackets so far arriving at the pumps, saaz and
his mate, so they joined Us for coffee
after seeing saaz n
mate off headed off to the coaST , we then headed to Tamworth, a quik
oops I've lost them a Uturn found them at the Golden Guitar, quik photo op,, then Uralla for fuel 452ks, and lunch, at the White Rose , another good feed
,
Next STop was STretch and Pee in Tenterfield followed by a STop at the border for pic and briefing on HWP in the area
after another 410k's
I like the New England Hwy and not ridden it all for a few years really enjoyed the ride on comfort,
thanks Abe for lending the Corbin
,, I had led safely without incident or fines, without a map, left at Kmart R at lights WeST ST 2nd L Eiser ST and the Big4 5.45 after STating at Windsor I'd have us there by 6.30,,we arrived in Toowoomba for the 2015 OzSTOC National Rally
