long ride home
« on: September 17, 2014, 02:47:54 PM »
Leaving at dawn tomorrow morning to ride home from Newcastle to Whyalla, a ride of 1600klm. Will do it in 2 days. Hoping to do 1000klm tomorrow and a short ride on Friday to home. Rest up over the weekend ready for work on Monday . Just letting you guys know so you can send good kama for my journey.

Just the sort of trip the STs are built for.  Have fun!

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Good run....
Originally I came from Windyalla myself. Early 70's I sold my Des's Cab, converted everything to cash, then went two wheel touring Aus for 3 years, and spent the lot to prevent my ex from getting one cent of it.
