Title: Canberra Wall to Wall 2014
Post by: Kev on September 15, 2014, 02:28:04 PM

For those who may wish to see what sort of turn out occurred on sat 13th September 2014 in Canberra.

I believe there was about 2000 bikes that took part...I also attended, left Thursday night on the ferry, got to Canberra Friday afternoon, did the ride Saturday, left Canberra Sunday morning and got back into Tassie this morning.

Now where did I leave the bike?.... :crazy

Yes, I did see a few ST's

Cheers

Either my rememberer forgot I was allowed to be part of it or else I wasn't sure, but would've like to have joined in, but will mark it down for next year for sure.
An uncle (who has passed on) was a member of the NSW Police and it would have been good to honour his memory.
He didn't die in the line of duty but he was an honest cop - an unusual commodity in his time.
Thanks Kev

So Kev was that your first long ride on the GL? How did you enjoy it?

Heard nothing about the ride here in the West. Usually here about it and have an escort ride out of Perth.

"Wall to Wall" is a great cause, the concept of which is close to my heart.   However, mass rides are not my cup of tea, but I have been tempted to participate in one of these.   Goodonya Kev for honoring the memory of fallen colleagues.

We had one of the girls on a 300 Kawasaki and another on a CB500X both in their first full year of riding.

I agree Pete, and I will do one at least. Perhaps when Ruby and I are run in.
