Well, I did the toy run in Ipswich today, and cannot get over how many bikes where there, there seemed like gazzilions. Couple of pics attached;








(at least three guys that I saw did the run on these little bikes...all knees and elbows!)


An armchair with an engine!



Good fun morning, even if I did wear my hand out changing gear 40,000 times in 45 minutes! Handed out some OzSTOC Cards and one guy even told me ther there actually isn't a ST Owners Club in Aus, only one in US and one in UK... that was just before I gave him one of our cards!

Great stuff Whizz - thanks for cramming a good cause and a fun Chrissie Party into the one day.

It was good to see you again.

For your wrist's sake, do you think you should look at the new VFR1200 Auto?...     

Good to see great numbers on these outings.

Thanks for the pics as well.

Cheers, Diesel

Hope you remembered where you parked your bike Whizz :A

Yes, I didn't lose the bike, but I was truly surprised by the sheer number of bikes there. I talked to riders from all over south east QLD who all said they come very year!. And why would I want to look at another bike? my ST 1300 is only a 2004 model with about 48,000 on the clock, it's barely run in, just settling down, no I'm not looking at anything to replace it.
