Why didn't you edit the first post in the original thread like has been done with the Crystal Brook/Macclesfied and Roxby Downs/Lameroo?  Two threads floating around is more likely to confuse people.

I'm in.  :hatwave

There's a few things in the area I want to check out and they're all on dirt, so unless it's been extremely wet and I'm to stay on the asphalt I'll certainly be on the Versys.  Either way, I'll be there.

Forecast of 37 for Morgan at this stage, so maybe a bit more than warm. :OldMan

Think I'll have to break out my summer Kevlar riding gear - shorts, t-shirt & thongs.  ;-*

Fair call, I reckon I'm still up for it but may decide to overnight at Morgan if too hot to return.

We are taking the ute, with a spare seat if that is helpful.

Thanks Pete, I'm a bit keen to take the Himalayan out for a run so I'll do that. I might head off early to ride in the cool (hopefully) of the morning and take a fishing rod with me and then at lunch regale the RTE attendees about the massive Murray Cod that got away  :angry-old-man-smiley-emoticon

One thing I have noticed since losing weight is that I don't feel the heat like I used to.  Tomorrow should be a good test.

Hi fellas, we (VIC, SA & QLD) all have RTE's today. I'll see if I can organise a Facetime call at around 1:30pm VIC time, 1:00pm SA time, 12:30pm QLD time.  I've just gotta remember / workout how to do a Facetime call.

I'll be a tri-State virtual RTE, maybe a first?

Cheers ....

Back home hot, but not too bothered.

1/2 bottle of water down my front & back at my mid point on the way home made the ride much cooler.
