Title: A coffee with a view - ST1300...
Post by: Diesel on November 21, 2012, 12:23:59 PM
After a somewhat 'forgettable' day at work - I decided I'd take the beautiful Stella out for coffee when I got home (as therapy) and picked one of my fave places.

I packed the billy, burner, water, coffee and mug (the OTHER mug thank you     :well) and headed off up the range towards Maleny and Peachester at around 17:15hrs.

After a lovely ride over some great Sunshine Coast Hinterland roads, I arrived at the spot as the sun was setting..... (pics may be blurry from low light and iPhone as camera)

As I had just finished making the coffee - my phone rang, and it was Streak... He said "Hi - whatchya upta?"         :phone

I said "you're not going to believe this!"          :rofl

Then a lovely ride back through a different part of the forest home.....

Nothing better to recharge the body than a great sunset ride and a coffee

Bring on the AGM I love my roadside coffee stop and you make it yourself and think about the road ahead and all life's troubles are gone for a few days that's why I love the Nullabour open road and emptyness

Def a must do. You all reading this have the bike, have the environment - so take the opportunity and do yourself a favour.     :thumbs

I can't afford a Wing!         :rofl

Seriously though...  When JM does a seat for you - you get an opportunity for an 'adjustment' if still not happy after 1-2,000 kms of bedding in.

Mine was a little too stiff. I was booked in Saturday - Friday he had his heart attack. I haven't had opportunity to be back since. The Airhawk will go when the seat is adjusted.

Cheers, Diesel
