If its not too late, please add Phil and Kate.
Probably in the c&r this time given the inclement weather and my slightly stuffed back  :angry-old-man-smiley-emoticon

We’d love to go, but I’m absolutely wrecked after a couple of massive weeks at work, hopefully be at the next one.

With the crappy weather forecast for tomorrow it's a shame we didn't swap this RTE to next week like we'd discussed at the last RTE.
Although in saying that, the weather forecast for next weekend isn't looking any better!  :o

Fine weather in FNQ and as we slowly work our way down the coast.  We're at Bucasia Beach for a coupla days before heading a little further south to some cooler weather - mid-20's will be fine.

Here's our view tonight.

I hope you're right, Chippy!

This is the forecast I've been looking at:



As for hot chocolate, I'll have one for you! :grin
Sue isn't feeling the best so she may not come, she'll make the call in the morning...  :think1

Just started to persist it down here. I'll probably concede, and take the car.
Top of 11 is not the best, but will be there.

With the temp being 4 deg outside at the pub and plenty of rain, the car seemed a decent option.
We still had a good time  :p

Quite a good turnout for this RTE considering the crappy weather!
A big thankyou to everyone for making the effort to attend...  :thumbs

We encountered drizzly rain pretty much the entire drive from Korumburra to Olinda and I must say I was quite happy to be in the car
instead of on the bike, especially with the temperature hovering around 3c - 4c.

We even copped some hail just before we arrived at Olinda!

After the stuff up we had with the original venue I must say I was quite pleased with the replacement.
Although the place looked a little run down, the staff were pleasant and the food, while not fantastic, was generally pretty good,
especially for the price which, surprisingly wasn't exorbitant considering we were in a renowned tourist area...

With the miserable weather outside, we decided to forego the usual flag photo in front of the bikes which, incidentally, had nothing to do
with the fact that none of us actually braved the elements and came by motorcycle!  :whistle

Anyhow, it was great to catch up with you all and I look forward to catching up again at the next RTE...

Cheers  :beer






For those that may have been disappointed that there weren't any motorcycle pics,
I've included one I snapped on the way to last month's RTE...Enjoy!  :grin
