Not a question but an update
« on: October 04, 2022, 10:51:57 PM »
After leaving the Mannum Rally I rode home via Wirrabarra to test ride a GL1800 Outfit. After riding it I left a deposit.
Theresa and I flew to Adelaide on Sunday morning, hired a car and drove the 250kms to Wirrabarra to pick up the bike.
We then travelled back to near the Airport staying over night before returning the hire car Monday morning and heading to Victor Harbor for a few days.
We ride the sidecar home leaving Victor on Thursday.

Schmick looking outfit!
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
