Today's forecast was for 25 degrees, and I reckon these first spring days are some of the best days of the year. What better excuse for a day out on "GhoST"! A mate with a V-Strom and I decided at short notice to ride to the Pretoria Hotel at Mannum for lunch, so we were off by 10.30. We had a stop for coffee at the Woodside Provindore, and on to Mannum. There have been a couple of RTE's at this pub, which has a nice veranhah overlooking the River Murray, which was exactly where we plonked ourselves for a couple of hours of company and conversation. Mark has never been to Mannum before, but clearly it won't be his last trip. It was a great day out.
