Ok guy's Darryl is out of Sunday's ride due to the low life scumbag pr&#k and lots of other choice obsenities that i cant use
........And R1 Eddie is a maybe , all depends on She who must be obeyed....
really, unbelievable...... poor Daryl, sorry to hear it. Hope the iron horse finds it's way home.
, its only 1900 k's and there is free accomodation in Sydney :thumbup:.... As for the flat spots on the pilots , we can always go down the New england , no problem then :thumbup:
, last day of NSW school holidays so im expecting a rather large police presence
Thought I'd better catch him up so he didn't think he was too far ahead of us , now that was fun.
The weather was perfect. Bright sunny day, mid to low 20's. Cool in the twisties. :thumbup:
5 of us enjoyed the days events. A new face Andrew joined us (my cousin Adrian's RAAF work mate) on his red Ducati. The hill climb up to Woodenbong from Rathdowny gave me a woody. Virtually uninterupted for us front runners who managed to get around that car and semi. Krishna and Humps had to sit and wait it out for an opportune time to pass.
Adrian and Andrew nicked off just before Kyogle via the Lions road as they had to be home by lunch. :spank: I'll let you's know what that section is like when i hear from the two boys.
Adrian certainly likes to set the pace.
Great run through the twisties from Kyogle up to our lunch stop at the Mt Warning pub. Filled our bellies and headed off up to test the roads of Tamborine. Awesome hill climb up to Canungra. Stopped to check out the hang gliders for a bit and then headed off north to Beenleigh.
I got separated from Humps and Krishna on the M1 heading home. Sorry, I'm not used to commuting and playing dodgems with traffic.
Thank's for the fantastic days ride, glad we zigged instead of zagging this time. Especially when you get to those twisty roads where you have signs with no speed limit
..... Working on the video right now and i'll post some pic's later :rockon:
Kind of jealous considering we're down to freezing point every morning and night up here.. How's that XJR in the twisties Daniel?

:thumbup: And its in Northern NSW just waiting for you :Flip:
Thanks guys for a great ride, those sections of road around Mt Warning are absolutely unreal!! No speed limit? W00T :rockon:
However, I was a little restrained, with the knowledge of my 1st born arriving in the next 2 weeks keeping my throttle controlled
The other day I had to brake quite hard in traffic and was greeted by fierce vibration up and down my front forks - since the brake pads and discs are brand new (only about a month old) I suspect the bearings in the head-stock are not the right size and are the cause of this vibration. It also contributed to lowering my confidence - something to chase up with the engineer who fitted the forks.
Ohhh Yeah thats what i liked about the road , i saw the sign and thought..... Hmmmm if thats not a BOTM pic i dont know what is
yeh, did you notice as soon as we crossed back in QLD the road has a 70km/hr road speed.
BTW, feedback from Adrain is the Lions Road is fantastic. He said that it alternates between double lanes to lane and a half and gets really tight on the corners. Tighter than the hill climb from Rathdowney up to Woodenbong. Maybe worth doing a half dayer ride one day soon to confirm his findings......
, there should always be a follow up consultation :thumbup: :rockon:
