Title: A sad day.......
Post by: StinkyPete on June 16, 2022, 07:43:11 PM
Today my 2012 OzSTOC mug, which commemorated our first NatRally at Blackheath, ended it's useful life.   It's been my daily tea and coffee mug for many years and I'm rather sad that it's gone.  :fp

R.I.P.

Knowing you, you could probably 3D print one.

Super glue to put it back together, and then on a shelf for display...

That's a rather half cup (err, mug) empty attitude Pete.   It's not gone, it's still there, just in (many?) more pieces than before.

Super glue to put it back together, and then on a shelf for display...

That's the attitude, and on a shelf, not being used, it'll last another 10 years.

Commiserations Pete!  :'(

Any chance of getting a copy of the pic that was on it?
If so you could always have another made by using a company such Snapfish: https://www.snapfish.com.au/store/mugs (https://www.snapfish.com.au/store/mugs)

I still have mine, and dare not use it for that very reason!  Ditto a few other "riding mugs".  A photo may be in order...
My Ozstoc Jacket with heaps of patches, and cap with badges, are both only brought out now for Ozstoc events.  The jacket is beginning to fade from being worn on random rides, so there is now a summer and winter jacket to do the service the Ozstoc "all-season" one did for years.

I noticed on mine today a crack running around under the handle. Might have to retire it to the trophy cabinet.

R I P Ozstoc mug. A tiny bit of glue and retired to be remembered fondly sounds like the ticket.
It might be broken but the memories it brings wont be forgootten.
