My brother and a few mates will be hitting the Mornington Peninsula (Arthurs Seat & Flinders) or possibly up the hills to Gembrook on the Easter Monday & Tuesday. We usually meet in Frankston at the Maccas and head off from there. I can keep you in on the details if you want.

Hi Sundog.
Too many mambers of the road reveinue task force up there now, so I avoid it.
Weekdays aren't too bad though.
I've been checking out some areas around Gippy.
Cheers.

Hi sundog
Thanks for the invite m8,my partner has already book Easter out grrrr, any time after easter or before should be fine. [thumbsup]

Hi madalf71
My brother lives in rosebub and we travel down there a fair bit and theres a lot of speed cams sitting there waiting for ya,and seems to be alot of patrol cars aswell. [leo]

a few of us went camping to big river a few weeks back up though warburton into reefton and towards marysville as i was driving i wish i was riding, lots of twist and turns and some parts had a fair bit of leaf litter on the road so one would need to be careful, might do this trip tomorrow i think it could be around 200kms round trip from ferntree gully. [thumbsup]
Cheers  [beer]

Koko64 and I try to get out once a fortnight on a Monday morning for a squirt up into the hills somewhere although I haven't been around much lately to catch up (sorry Tony).  We've been to Yea a couple of times and up into the Dandenongs.  It's pretty casual and not too long coz I have to work in the arvo.
I've just remembered that it's supposed to be on tomorrow but it's too late to ring him now so we may go later in the week.  I'll post up if we come to any decisions.
Where abouts are you based?

Melbourne looks to be putting the good weather on next week. Is anyone from Melbourne thinking of doing anything special?

After a few months hiatus I'm back on my machine on Monday and will be zipping around the Mornington Peninsula scrubbing in tyres and pads and heading to Flinders for a coffe and pie at the bakery. Might also head out to Gembrook on Tuesday.
