Sounds like a plan, I've got most of next week off, so might join you for part of it H.
Be in contact.

Hi MadAlf.  Was talking about this week.  ie Did it yesterday and today.  Today's weather was magic for riding.  Heaps of others riders in the Healesville area thought so too.

Me. But I won't be anywhere near Melbourne.  Much more to the north-west of.

Bugger it. Now I can't do a ride Monday. Taking the kids to Marysville and Stephensens falls.
How about Friday?

Ouch that's going to hurt - driving to Marysville  :o.  The kids will be entertained by you leaning in corners and making motorbike noises.  [laugh]

Back to work Monday, excuse me while I go away and curb my enthusiasm.

Hi all, back from hols.  Coffs Harbour, Hervey Bay, Fraser Island, warmth.  What more could one ask.
Heather, sorry about missing your ride.  Just my luck to not be around when you come through.
I'm still up for a ride tomorrow if anyone's interested although I don't think the weather forecast is all that good.
I know that Koko64 can't come but if anyone else is keen just say so.

Boy did you miss out Rob.  It was the best two days in Melb for the last 6 months and the hills were alive with the sound of bikes.  Waved when I went past your place.  [thumbsup]

I'm departing on another trip to Sydney on Wednesday - looks like it may be cold, wet and possibly a bit slippery if the black ice/snow forecasts are to be believed (and that's on the NSW side  ;D).  I am so looking forward to summer.

Will catch up when I get back.  [moto]

Sacrifice of Fatherhood. :'(
Glad the weather is crap today. It would be too painful to drive up there on a beautiful day with bikes everywhere. As for leaning into corners and making motorbike noises, I'll need windscreen wipers on the inside!  :D

Well Ducmeister and I got in another morning ride to Yea. I did 245kms all up. Wasn't too cold and only some drizzle 10 minutes from home, (still had to clean her up though). He knows some good back roads.

You could tell Ducmeister had been to the Island for the GP. Mud all over his bike and boots. Bike looked staunch, no Ducati poser there. Sounds like a good time was had by all despite the weather.

Nah.  I'm doing GOR as far as Apollo Bay tomorrow instead (with a 900SS for company).  [thumbsup]
