Gatton struck by storm...again
« on: January 07, 2014, 06:12:38 PM »
Just watched the news which showed the garage in Gatton that we went to after both the first and the second floods. We went for a ride ...twice...to take in fuel to try to keep the garage in business after the last two years floods, now the thing has been blown over in a GALE!

What is this place coming to??????????

I think the "news" called it Gatton, but that was the Grantham servo that we filled up at. 
That was the face of a real battler!

OK, so when can you bikies organize another ride out there, I have no doubt that that really would ease the mind level of these poor people. Sorry but it gets a bit hard to organize a ride when I don't have a bike any more and I'm not allowed to either ride or drive (till 2nd April...12 months on from the operation!!)
