Just got back from 6 days on the road to a run in North Queensland. Went with 5 mates who insist that I should always ride in front while they travel in a group about 400 metres behind. They reckon that this is because I am the oldest-methinks that the fact the America does not have a hd badge and I also have a screen and stereo plays some part in this. Then again they may not like Jimi,The doors, Led Zep etc. Setting up tents at run when a new arrival on a hybrid BMW fully loaded tried to take a vertical line straight up the steep hill next to us. To his credit he got 60% of the way up before gravity took over. Broke a clutch lever but still enough left to ride home so pride hurt more than anything. Reckoned it looked like a piece of cake!!!!!
A great time was had by all with the green stone ginger wine being very popular!!!along with copious beers of course. Twenty seven degrees or so without a cloud in the sky-not bad for the middle of winter. Its a hard life down here but someone has to do it!!!!!!!!!!
