Thanks for the invite Chris

I currently don't have an ST but have many mates on the forum that do. Looking forward to checking out your site, hope to learn a few tricks on long distance riding

Welcome Skidoooo! Main tips are don't wipe the bike out with roos etc, and don't destroy the bike's engine. But you know all this and other tips from your recent experiences

G'day Karl, about time you showed up.....I just bet you have spent all your free time this week farkling the new Kracka for a coffee ride.

Welcome mate

Thanks for the warm welcome guys; yes Chris have been doing some work on two bikes, not 100% ride fit yet but working on it

. Saaz, my new years resolution is to go 12 months roo free. Withdrawals shouldn't be an issue

Welcome Skidoooo,
What bikes do you have? Post some pictures. You are motor than welcome if you don't have an ST. There are a few members who don't have an ST along with a few members who have something else besides an ST.

I'm with Wom and saaz. For those on this forum that don't know skidoooo, he's done the CCCC150 (three time across Oz in less than 150 hours) and some impossible feats on little bikes. I think he's here for the RTEs, rather than the advice.
You'll enjoy the RTEs, Karl.

Thanks guys; it's refreshing to see a really active and positive forum!

Welcome Karl. Any friend of Craig's is a friend of ours.
Did the OzSTOC IBA SS1600k with him and had a ball.

I've read some of your exploits and hope you've recovered well from the ride in NZ.

Thanks Gary. Ribs are much better, shoulder is still a bit lazy but working on it. Had a fairly long ride planned in a weeks time but I'm not fit enough, had to postpone it for another eight long weeks :(

Im not crook enough not to attend Nambucca johnnyYTED

It's one of my favourite RTE's.

At this stage I will be using the small bike

I was in Adelaide two weeks ago (with Wombattle) and picked up the new GTR and it hurt a bit so we called it a short day after 800 kilometres, thought the small bike might fit me better
