Wild Rose ride to Inverell
« on: September 23, 2014, 06:26:16 AM »
At 8.30 Saturday morning 9 of us being 5 workmates (all bar 2 are also DD Riders but I am working on it)
and 3 from Darling Downs Rider departed Toowoomba for a great ride to Inverell
We rode out through Cambooya to Leyburn onto Gore where we pulled up for fuel (not the ST) and coffee
After a chat and fill we headed onto Texas where we were greeted by ST2UP after a chat we headed into the bar for a  :beer
I finally met up with Gerard who is the owner of my previous Red ST1300. He told me he had an accident on the way out on Friday
night with a kangaroo  :'( but luckily not a lot of damage but ruined his first OzSTOC RTE
We were joined for lunch by Captn Thunderbolt PC & Marion, Diesel and Biggles

   





After a great feed (always good at Texas) and chat we headed for Inverell
We arrived at the Fossickers inn caravan park to some friendly faces
After checking in and unpacking we grabbed a taxi and headed down to the Services Club for a quick  :beer
And grab some supplies to wash down the great dinner the Lions club had prepared for us

It was good to chat with the OzSTOC crew well into the night ( No photo's  :fp)
Getting up early Sunday morning for a needed coffee and great Breakfast again prepared by the Inverell Lion's Club  :clap

 



After our Goodbye's we headed for Glenn Innes  then onto Tenterfield for coffee
Then onto Warwick RSL for lunch, arriving back in Toowoomba about 3.00
A great weekend was had by all

Thanks mate, you always think when you get home "Why didn't I take a photo of that and that"  :think1
The weekend goes so quick. It would be better if we had 10 day long weekends every second weekend  :grin

It seemed like they enjoyed OzSTOC's hospitality and friendly nature.       :clap
A good time seemed to be had by all.     :hatwave
