had a reason to do a short ride to Kulgera and back to Alice Springs to catch up with Stinky Pete and the guys and prepare them for anice warm night in Alice and warn them about some harley shaking roadworks that were in progress. It also gave me a chance to give my ozstock shirt and jacket their maiden run. The morning started a bit chilly but soon warmed up and good run home after afeed and a fruit juiceand some practice for me in group riding. b By now the boy should just about have tents set up and be looking forward to a nice warm 4 degrees tonight.
