Welcome Mikan13, from another Ipswich local. I live over at Flinders View if you would like to come visit. I had an ST-1300 but was not allowed to ride it for a year from April because of a serious brain tumour, so I had to sell it.  Haven't got a bike at the moment, but rest assured that I am going to be getting something else as soon as I can persuade she-who-must-be-obeyed to give me the cash!!!

Hi Mikan - thanks for the great intro!

Hopefully you are enjoying your OzSTOC affiliation experience.


There are usually plenty of rides requiring Members to fly-by, so please feel free to jump in the queue and come to lunch.


Cheers, Diesel
