Well i started out on the ride yesterday ok but after Peachester i had a brain fart and missed the turn to Maleny, I realized my error when approaching the Woodford Kilcoy rd but then thought i could go via Kilcoy. No you can't. I am blaming my navigator if she had of been in her proper place on the pillion seat instead of working l would not have been chasing the GSXR and Buell through Peachester!
Sorry i guys I will see you on the next one.
Regards Mike

Don’t you hate that? I had a smaller one of those but at least it only put us back 20 mins. Blaming it on your missing pillion is a new strategy that I’d never have thought of. :-++

In my case it would be a non existent pillion.  Sometimes missing turnoffs is half the fun.

STrudel said that he had a great time too chatting with Shiney’s and jf3000’s steeds.

Hmm.  That would have been instructive...    |-i      :grin

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

I think it’s like when you send your kids off to school and they learn new tricks from the other kids. I noticed some new and rather naughty behaviour from him on the way home.

As an IT tech I wonder how many of you plug your GPS into a computer and check for any updates.

Ah - a fellow IT nerd.  Where do you work and what sort of work do you do ?
