STranger's Sunday twiSTy ride with single
« on: September 21, 2014, 08:45:32 PM »
 :dred11
woke up to a nice lQQking Sunday (21/9) morning and knowing single aka Ian was wanting to have a laST ride for a while, planned a little ride with lots of twiSTy bits. I met Ian at the servo at Leumeah at 10 am and after a quik chat it was decided I would lead him aSTray. so we headed of with me leading, something I dont usually do  as I have been known to get a bit rambunctious,  :whistle >:()  towards Appin.
here's the google map of our journey. this was the short link


 :think1 how do I put the map in inSTead??
Riding along Jamberoo Mtn Rd Ian waved me down  :law and told me there were sparks coming off STranger,  I was juST testing STranger's ability to use ALL his tread width :eek my side Stand occasionally scrapped the tar,  :fp


a STop at Robertson to drain the bladders and we were off again. heading to Kangaroo Valley, across to Berry then Coolangatta, no not Qld, and turned left heading back towards home.
STranger and I were home safe at 2.57 pm ,all up only 307k's but not many STraight  rds, lots of great scenery but I'm not one to STop and take pics when I'm having so much fun.. :grin  :fp
I hope you enjoyed your laST ride (only temp) Ian, I took you on some good riding roads,  ++ thanks for your company today.I enjoyed leading you aSTray  :beer
 there wasnt anything unsafe to report but on 1 15kph hairpin I missed a gear and had a little :fp moment :eek otherwise all was  :thumb
I will be intereSTed in reading single's version with the view from behind,,  o:)

Thanks johnny for a fantastic last ride :thumbsup

Great to be a follower for a change ;-*

Great to go for a ride without stopping every 5 minutes for a Pie or a Wee or just taking Photos.

As for your Hairpin indiscretion I just assumed you were trying to run those sportsbikes of the road :eek

Just like the 2 cars on the Princess Hwy on the way home :eek

Anyway had a fantastic day with a great mate.

Ian

unfortunately the ever caring crafty nephew is working driving truck and out of town for a few weeks so there will be a delay in him being able to do a few sets of light brackets...
