I bought a four pack of Stockade Brew Co 'Old Money 2018' release today and opened one a little while ago. It's 12.5% ABV, or 3.3 standard drinks in a 330 ml Stubbie.

I'm liking it, very much. It tastes of chocolate, coffee and vanilla and smells fantastic.
Aged in Kentucky Bourbon Oak Barrels.

Just spent 5 hours pulling out a faulty altenator on a st1300pa...found that there was not a lot of detailed information on this in the manual and on the web.
The hardest thing was working out where it was located.
it is located under the throttle body deep in the centre on the top side of the motor. Was not something i could remove without removing throttle body and hoses including thermostat housing.

As some of you may know, JOHNNYyted recently bought a new Can-Am F3S Daytona Spyda he has called BEEstY, while up here in QLD on Holidays.

He's asked me to give him a hand relocating BEEstY to NSW, while he rides STrangler, and I've agreed. What an exciting opportunity. 2 days of riding the style of bike I see in my future.

JOHNNYyted on BEEstY


Me on BEEstY


Thanks to the generosity of Shiney, I now have a Jacket that fits properly, Kevlar pants, my old wet weather pants, and a neck gator to keep me warm.

I've set up a Spot to track our progress, and it goes live Friday, 17th May, sometime after 5 am.

https://spotwalla.com/tripViewer.php?id=1de105cdaba44e342d&hoursPast=0&showAll=yes

Basic plan is (could vary due to weather and/or whim)
Brisbane
Beaudesert
Lions Road
Kyogle (maybe breakfast)
Casino (maybe visit Dad/ breakfast)
Tenterfield
Uralla (Wave at ST2UP and Pockey's place as we ride past)
Tamworth (overnight)
Muswellbrook
Golden Highway
Putty Road (including Grey Gum Cafe) [for some reason, JOHNNYyted is insistent on riding this on his new bike ]
etc to
JOHNNYyted's place.

Fly home Sunday.

We're in more discussions with the Peter the owner in Mareeba.

He's also willing to throw in 2 jackets and helmets with comms, so that makes it more attractive. The helmets are possibly too old to keep, but the comms might be perfect.

Just waiting on an OK from Beau as to the condition of the bike.

We're now so convinced we'll be getting a Spyder, we went out this morning and bought a new Helmet and Jacket for me.

Lots of extras including 2 Jackets & helmets with comms (too small for me), and then this morning this happened.







Waiting on our Sister-in-law's Brother Beau, to go up from Atherton to take a look and test ride.

Already looking at airfares and accommodation.

The insurrection and Test Ride by Beau was .

So Wednesday morning I'm flying to Cairns to be picked up on Thursday morning to go to Mareeba.

There we'll change the rego over and then I'll ride to Townsville.

Hopefully on Friday, I can catchup with John and Kate in Mackay, before riding on to Rocky, and then making my way home on Saturday.

This link should go live on Thursday morning.
