Australia Day week end sounds like it would be a good fun run in the sun.
I'm in, any other starters? If so use the calender and don't let anything spoil it except deaths and births. You can put the wedding off till after. LOL
Who's in ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Good ride report mate.

Thanks Hans for a top weekend and all your efforts to put this together. Thanks to 2sips and Stella for their hospitality and looking after us so well. Though, next time I will need to bring me sleeping bag, froze my arse off in that kids bag.

To all you blokes that piked out or missed out, TOO BAD. But there is always next time. The banana benders response was disapointing, I thought you guys had Warriors everywhere. Hats off to you Spokes for showing up anyway, despite the lonely journey. I am happy to say that we had 110% showup from the NSW crew. Well done guys!

Count me in for Aus Day. This might be bigger than the last one.

Ride Safe
Mick

Hate to be the bearer of bad tidings fellas, but I received a phone call from 2Sips yesterday, he said we can still come if we want to, but it will be like a sauna. Even 2Sips and Stella either leave and head south or sit inside in the air con all day. Even too hot to ride. No coastal breeze to cool things off.
Bad months for Wallabadah are December, January and February. Sorry fellas.
 
#115 ·
What about Wollongong for Australia Day? Like Wallabadah, it starts with W and is difficult to spell. Its on the coast so there'll be a breeze. The Vic's will come along (10hrs), its still not too far for QLD'ers (15hrs), its 15hrs away from Adelaide, and the Latte Sippers can sleep in because its only 1.5hrs away.

I got my times fromhttp://www.mynrma.com.au/travel_planner.asp

I don't actually know whats in Woolongogn....
 
#116 ·
Now that's not a bad idea, Woolongong sounds good. There is some really good riding to be had around that area. I would even put down my Latte and come and see you in Singleton and bring you down the Putty, just to scare your chicken strips.
Up to you Folks.
I don't know if we have any Warrior riders in Vic, none have surface to say hello. Unless they are just hiding.
I think that the SA crowd might come over, depending on work loads.
I'm in, and I'm sure that the rest of the Latte Sippers will be to.
At least we put ar$e in the saddle and road, and had a 110% turn out. Because we were only starting with 5 and ended up with 6. So ball is in your court, we know that there is ONE guarenteed starter up there who doesn't mind a ride. Hey Spokes.

hello fierysport the midnight warrior in the photos has a vance and hines pro pipe
the seat is a metcruze tourer with pillion back rest, they are in Dubbo my setup was $895
would recommend to anyone,almost 2hrs in saddle before your arse starts to feel tied, old seat was 30 to 40 minutes

Hello Mate - just ordered my Metcruze fastback - I can barely keep the bike up so I'll be damned if I'm carrying someone else on the bike, lol[/emoticons/emotion-5.gif] Hence the single seat.

Now as for Wooloongong - Marty, you need a kick up the butt! You'll need it after sitting in the seat for that long. I'll have to sort some shift swaps out to make it, but I'm up for it.
