I met up early with Skip and we headed south to meet the others in the entourage...
We met up with the others at the Stapylton BP Travel Centre for a coffee and two became 5...
There were 4 lanes of wall to wall traffic – so we had to thread the needle a little...
Streak and his gorgeous big black one...
It warmed up sooo much, that Skip did a strip whilst waiting at traffic lights... – this was just after we let Brian lead again – into a traffic jam!...
The long arm of the Tipsy was never far away!...
Here it is being used again later – in his natural habitat....
We eventually hit ‘the strip’...
Now for the main reason we were here...
Also – there was this wedding going on we thought we’d crash...
Barry and Marissa looked gorgeous and resplendent. The day seemed to go off without a hitch (except the BIG one). Although just before the bride arrived, Barry seemed to wonder if he should be out riding or something...
Down the aisle came the beautiful bride Marissa...
The ceremony was performed by long time friend Father Ken. He happens to ride an ST1300 and is the pres of the Redlands Chapter of the Ulysses Club – goes by the name of the Faster Pastor. He did a fine job...
After a little informal photo session and some refreshments, and lunch next door at the Pub, it was back on the road. Our duty was done...
A great day was had by all, and a new world record set for OzSTOC shirts (5 – albeit for only a short period) – (we had a two hour jump on those Westies).
The day was perfect, as was the company and weather.
Thanks to all.
Cheers, Diesel
