To add to the nostalgia:

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

Diesel asked me on the OzSTOC Facebook page whether I enjoyed the Rally, but also the planning and the journey to & from.

I really enjoyed the Rally, it's a bit like extended family get togethers - they may only happen once or every couple of years & conversations and relationships pick up where they were left off.

Planning the trip up was a good challenge & I was able to plan one that had new destinations (for me) on the route.

When Williamson posted on the Forum that he was looking to come back via the coast & seeking interest from those wanting to join th Fellowship of the Ride, that pretty much fitted with my plans. Had an enjoyable trip back with him & Nigel, sharing stories, tables, drinks & accommodation. The route down the coast took me to many places I hadn't been to before, including riding in the Big Smoke of Sydney - somewhere I'd never driven or ridden before.

Looking forward to the next one, wherever it is.
