Carrol and I had a great day
The rain radar showed rain in the morning, so we geared up with all the rain gear before departing.
The roads were a little damp, but it turned out we didn't need the rain gear at all as we didn't run into any rain the whole day
The ride was nice and uneventful apart from one area where the traffic on the highway dropped down to a crawl for about a kilometre.
This led up to an overpass bridge that had been damaged by a truck carrying half of a wind turbine colliding with it.

Anyway, we arrived and found DaleAP and Jeeves had already arrived.
Shortly after this, Timbo and his mate arrived, followed by Biggles and his wife, Draco and his wife, Joe, and Diesel.
We had a chat and looked over the bikes, checked out farkles and seats, then took a group photo before heading in.
We ordered lunch and the food arrived fairly soon after.
The portion sizes were large, and the food was good
After we had all had our fill and enjoyed catching up, we all headed off.
We had an enjoyable ride home without any issues
Thanks to everyone that was able to make it and I hope to see you at another RTE soon
Cheers
Shiney
