Hi all,
Recently I rode up to Queensland from where I live in Canberra (1367K via the inland route and 1177k return via the Pacific or coast Hwy) and like last year with the help of Benny (islandbum) we spoke to a few others and met for a beer at a pub on Bribie Island.
Last year it was me, Benny and Richard (Foglefar) where we really enjoyed each others company including the VB beers for me, and comparing bikes.
So I thought I'd post this photo (not that good a quality but whatever) of us taken this year.
Left to Right we have:
Joe-(FrankW's Wife)
Ken-(Kent1967)
Richard-(Foglefar)
Your's Truely Stacka-(Staffo)
Frank-(FrankW) and
Benny-(Islandbum).
We all rode our bikes to the pub so we could only have a few unfortunately but everyone got on brilliantly and I guess the only problem was we all had a lot to say and chat about.
I dunno but get Triumph riders together who love their bikes and it's like family. So much to discuss, mill over, debate on, you name it, it's chatterbox city.
Anyway, I'm not sure if there's ever been a photo of a group of Aussie BA.Com members posted before so maybe this is a first. Of course I know the boys (and girls) up round Brisbane way know each other pretty well but I suppose you get a bloke like me from a distance away and all of a sudden we have an Aussie meet
.
One thing that was discussed was the possibility of us organising a weekend on the mid NSW coast round late July - August. Frank reminded me the other day when he sent an email so who knows, we may even have a first official BA.Com Aussie Meet over a weekend where most have to ride a distance to get there, so we can stay in one spot and chew the fat over a few more beers than last time.
If any other Aussie members are reading this and you like the idea of meeting up, email me and I'll keep you in the loop if this things a goer.
