Welcome Richard - you'll enjoy it here.

Even though you're in the far north  :rofl do you feel like a ride to eat in the south this Sunday?

If so, post here: http://ozstoc.com/index.php?topic=3808.0

It would be good to meet you in person.

Cheers, Rob.

Hi Richard  :hatwave

Looks like a few of us doing the airport run

I'm little shy about leaving the 1300 for two weeks so a 1100 will be acceptable for me also

Just I don't seem to be in much of a hurry

Hi Richard and welcome to the club.
I got mine to do the airport run as well.
Look for the other bikes for where to park.
Cheers,
