RR - QLD RTE 2 July 2017 - Tripsy to Tipsy
« on: July 03, 2017, 01:51:17 AM »
This is my RR from the QLD RTE 2 July 2017 - Tripsy to Tipsy

The day started with me getting home from work and finding the Wife Carrol wasn't doing well (Very sore shoulder and arm) :'(
So we decided to take the car to make it easier on her (Although I was thinking the ST would have been a better option all the way to Tipsy's) :fp

Anyway we headed off at about 10 and stopped at Subway to grab some lunch where we met up with JF3000 :hatwave
JF3000 had a special gift with him that he had made up for Tipsy with him that he had been getting everyone to sign :-++ :-++ :-++

So after signing we continued on and a short time later we had met up with everyone at Tipsy's :runyay


   

   

   

   

Everyone had a feed, a great chat and signed the special gift :thumbs




Anyway without further ado on to the special gift...

JF3000 had collected up a number of pictures of Tipsy and arranged them into an awesome print and framed it.
To top it off he drove it all over the place to get it signed by a number of people that couldn't make the RTE :-++ :-++ :-++








It turned out great and Tipsy loved it :runyay

After all this we got together and Carrol took some group photos :clap :clap :clap

   

   



Well that's about it, we said our goodbyes and headed home so I could get some sleep :hatwave
All in all it was an awesome day out :thumb

As a final note, whenever ANYONE is in the area, please stop by Tipsy's to sign the back of the frame and say hi :thumbsup

Cheers
Shiney

As a side note, I used imgur.com to post the pictures as I'm having the same issues everyone else is with Photo Bucket.

Imgur has it's days.  I think it's just easier to attach photos to your post, like this:

Thanks for the heads up guys.
Below I have tried the same post as the original but using Flicker...
The reason I'm not just attaching the pics to the post is that the pictures only display at the bottom of the post and can't be placed within the text.

Anyway let me know how this goes...

I think it's just easier to attach photos to your post, like this:
It's ok sometimes but there are times when the image is best placed within the text.

The other alternative is to use a blog site for a ride report etc. and just put a link to it like this http://st1100a.blogspot.com.au/2016/09/western-australia-trip-september-2016.html

Unfortunately, Flickr doesn't show photos on my computer, so it seems that's not a universal solution to the hosting puzzle.
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

That's odd- when I reload the page I can see the pix.
It looks like there will be a bit of a transition while we find a workable alternative to Photobucket.
I do appreciate their problem- they can't go on hosting material for free forever- the volume of storage required becomes unsupportable.
I'm happy to pay $2.49 per month for up to 500mb.  User pays is a fact of life, and we've been spoilt by "free internet".  It's also a fact of life that advertising dollars will become more stretched as the internet keeps expanding by the second.
