Went for a ride yesterday with Techno and Fluff.

Here's some pics:

Simon and Eva tagged along in the XR5. Or should I say, blasted along, he drives like he rides 


Fluff


Techno

The Dam:

Nice.  I don't want to know what Techno is doing in the first photo - looks a bit suss  or his hands are too cold to do up his jacket?

Planning on doing that ride after turismo. 

Great pics Dave.
Next ride I'll get some pics of the lot up here on bikes instead of standing beside them.

Gordon dam looks like that dam James Bond jumps off in Goldeneye!




you boys look good....well.....the bikes do!

In the first photo I think I'm zipping my jacket. There's a toilet just out of shot so I'm not doing what it looks like.

Here are my shots. The action ones are a bit IZ_ due to using a compact camera but its easy to carry and get out in a hurry.


The starting line up at Hungry Jacks.


By the road waiting for a good photo op.


Yellow Meanie ripping up the road.


Fluff on the 675.


Me, photo courtesy of Simon.

More to follow.

Woo-hoo!

More action shots 

Photos part two. (I'm getting the hang of this image posting).



Our party down on the wall of the dam. The only problem is........




This is the climb back up.


Yellow Meanie again. Look at those toes on the edge of the footpegs.


This really feels like a remote part of the world. Its as far as you can get into SW Tasmania on sealed roads. Sometimes you have to stop to take it all in. Best done in summer though.

Thats it from me.

great pics guys!!  I had already said that i would go on a ride down the Tas peninsula, sorry no pics but it was a good ride, no going fast though traffic and  but it was still nice, we also had a p plate person and in tasmania a p plate means that you are restricted to 80ks do not know who had that great idea . 

Didn't see any  on the ride yesterday. And we were doing a bit more than 80.

Did see some greenies at the Florentine camp on the side of the road though.

how about tomorrow, any takers on an east coast trip?

Not me Nic. I've got some mates popping around for a few 

enjoy the few dave!

Ok here is my plan, I will be at red square cafe cambridge at 9:30 leave 10:00  stop at orford, then on to bark mill bakery depending on how/if any company, should be there around 12:00,  this is hard to work out not knowing how many people may be with me ok leave bark mill around 1:00. Play time through lake leake.  if on my own it will be just to the old lake leake shop for a turn around then back the east coast.  Hope to see someone there in the morning.  Bugger that some have to work, oh well we get to use some of our holiday days for these three.

Nic

I'm out too, sorry Nic. As I was out all day yesterday, I have a few things to do around the house before I can safely get another leave pass.

We will have to do a ride up to meet Bazz but thats looking like early Jan. I'll have to read that thread again to work out who is available when.

Hi guys.

I'll be in Hobart in March and will have a free day to ride wherever I like.  Is Strathgordon an easy day ride from Hobart?
How far?  How long (at below warp speed)?

Cheers,
Rob.
