And yet another Newbie
« on: February 28, 2012, 03:22:07 PM »
 :dred11
G'day all

Steve from Molong (North of Orange, Central NSW) - been riding the ST11o0 since 2001 after a 20 year absence. Back in the saddle - touring now instead of commuting on a bike. Firey as a job & build miniature steam engines or doing the reno thing if I can' sneak out for a ride. Used to be me the other half but since she buggered her her leg, I usually go on my "pat malone" for a weekend jaunt somewhere !!

Hi Steve. Pault on here used to do the model train thing as well. I had a nephew in Molong until recently but the divorce things has happened so he is back in Bendigo.  I like the Orange area so may be through there sometime soon.

The funniest farm seems to be W.A. 

There's a few other roughies to beware of, but they're generally too far away to be an immediate danger (just a few kay north of South Pole, to name a few).

The Queenslanders are all sensible and responsible.   :13Candy

G'day Steve - great to have you aboard - you ae bound to enjoy your time spent here with these wackos stalwarts and knowledgeable chaps and lasses.

As you are probably finding, there is a wealth of info in older posts, and the workshop threads for both STs.

Also - try and find out who is in the vicinity (I've already spoken to blue-heeler) and see if they're up for a coldie and lunch.

hanks for the intro, and hope to see you at the National Rally or somewhere else real soon.

Cheers, Diesel
