Methinks someone is sleeping in.....

I just got this message from Jason:

I'm heading for the m31 towards Bendigo

Maybe change of route from original plan?

Marcus · « **Reply #80 on:** November 25, 2014, 12:51:03 PM »

looks like he is skipping Phillip Island heading straight to Warrnambool or Geelong

Exhaustion setting in.

Long day. Jason, if you have time this evening, make a quick phonecall to me, my number is on each of my posts.

Not surprised, that's an outstanding effort for his first time.

Kev Murphy · « **Reply #84 on:** November 25, 2014, 01:26:15 PM »

Whichever way he decides to travel, Warrnambool or Hamilton, I hope to catch up with him. It's only a 100k run for me from here, might have the chance to cruise with him for awhile.

Hamilton

Gah I hope not, that's a horrible ride

Kev Murphy · « **Reply #86 on:** November 25, 2014, 01:34:01 PM »

I agree

jf3000 · « **Reply #87 on:** November 25, 2014, 02:17:47 PM »

So.....

Kev Murphy · « **Reply #88 on:** November 25, 2014, 02:33:44 PM »

Where's your next stop? your road plan?

jf3000 · « **Reply #89 on:** November 25, 2014, 02:40:39 PM »

I have no idea. It was Goulburn. But I pass that. I'm heading to Yass but will probably just drive through.

Kev Murphy · « **Reply #90 on:** November 25, 2014, 03:05:36 PM »

Yass is just off the highway, Gundagai is a further 100k, and Albury is a further 180k down the Hume.. thoughts on where you are stopping tonight?
Doing well for first long ride.

jf3000 · « **Reply #91 on:** November 25, 2014, 03:49:25 PM »

I've stopped at Yass. Fatigue was hitting me.

Today I did 376klm. Tomorrow going to push Bendigo. Depends if I get woken up early.

So close.

Kev Murphy · « **Reply #92 on:** November 25, 2014, 03:55:47 PM »

ok!, well done, mate.

saaz · « **Reply #93 on:** November 25, 2014, 03:58:11 PM »

If I knew you were stopping around there you should have just come to my place in Canberra. Same distance from Goulburn as Yass. It is a bit warm, but the mornings have been cool so best to get going early if possible.

Kev Murphy · « **Reply #94 on:** November 25, 2014, 04:08:14 PM »

570k to Bendigo, around 6 and a half hours, plus fuel and stops

Our current weather here, top of 17 today, 14.9 at 5pm. Possible showers Wed and Thursday, but less than 1 mm expected

jf3000 · « **Reply #95 on:** November 25, 2014, 04:09:44 PM »

Thanks saaz. Alas Canberra is not for me. The prime minister and I are avoiding each other after our last encounter. The PM does not like getting PWNED in WOW PVP. Said something about raising taxes whilst muttering defeat....

Well done Jason. You're chipping away at the kilometers, discovering your own comfortable pace, and by the time you get to Mt Gambier you'll be a seasoned motorcycle tourer.

saaz · « **Reply #98 on:** November 25, 2014, 06:22:59 PM »

I don't see any politicians these days, so life is good

Most of them will be going back to annoy the people who elected them very shortly, which is the best time of the year here

Shiney · « **Reply #99 on:** November 25, 2014, 06:25:56 PM »

Well done on another day in the saddle mate
