Pics please Mr Spider....

You must have taken some pics of her

Ita

that wouldn't be suitable for a site like this! or any site really - personal enjoyment only, not that I would 

and I definitely didn't suggest it as soon as I unwrap the paper either!

[DosVerde]

ah you boys will just have to buy my self-help book to all men:

The mouth, The Clitoris and The Feet:
A guide to making the woman in your life very happy

...


It will be a good little bit of kit - and Brendan's wife will be able to see the mischief he gets up to when not attending puppy school etc.

JC, you must try it! Moscato by Innocent Bystander. After drinking you won't be able to get out of bed.....she won't let you!

Hey Matty - there is a cyber-shot model above mine that is 13.1 mp - now at that point I understand chipsets and lens will let the camera down - but hell that's impressive!

I have no idea what you're talking about Spider, mi chica diabla know's I'm an Angel 

Ita, yep been to the Royal Mail, the mushroom brulee entree I had was the start of a wonderful feast, and their wine list is phenomenal for a small country pub.

Right you two, start planning that trip! fantastic...is it in Halls gap too?

I'll bunk with JC...he looks least likely to snore!

Hi all,

went for a bit of a recce today to see if I could come up with anything for Saturday.   [moto]  Went from Whittlesea to Kinglake West, Flowerdale, Strath Creek, Broadford, Pyalong, Tooborac, Lancefield, Cobaw, Newham, Hanging Rock, Mount Macedon (lunch stop) , Romsey, Wallan, then back to Whittlesea. 
All up from my place in Hurstbridge it was about 300km and took me about 4 hours with a lunch stop.
There weren't a lot of twisties.  It's mostly fairly open roads although not a lot of boring straight highways.  Some narrower back roads included were not very wide but in pretty good shape.  It's more of a fun touring route than a serious sports ride and could be added to if so desired.

Thoughts please...

[heatherp]

I won't be able to make it this Saturday - bike not repaired yet - still waiting for bits.  sounds like fun though if the weather behaves.


Hi DosVerde
A Grampians/Halls Gap/ Dunkeld ride weekend is a great idea.  Don't know about roads west to South Oz.  Haven't explored much that way yet.

Have fun all whilst I sulk.

That route sounds pretty good DucMeister, pitty I won't be there. I know it's not too twisty but all the good ones are in the hills where it would be wet and cold., unless we go around South Gippsland.  Plus I love that little run through the valley from Flowerdale to Broadford.

OK then, sounds like i'll be plotting a Grampians overnighter for later this year.

That sounds great....   I'll be up for it work  and bowls permitting

So, some questions we need to sort out:

1.  Who is actually going to be there on Saturday (so we don't leave anyone behind when we leave)?

2.  Where are we going to meet?

3.  What time are we going to meet?

[DosVerde]

Here's a thought, how about postponing this for a week or 2. Doesn't look like there are too many takers at the moment plus the weather is going to be crap tonight and probably blow alot of rubbish onto the roads - oh I hate being the barer of negativity....,

Don't worry about the fact I can't come tomorrow affect the decision though 

[Spider]

I'm voting to postpone too.

According to my neighbour (works at BOM) this wind (whoa!) and rain is in for the next 18 to 24 hours...clearing tomorrow afternoon.

anyone know about Sunday?

[pauls]

Yeh, on the BOM radar it appears to be really closing in now and tomorrow is looking like a write-off - possibly Sunday is looking ok.  I'm in the middle of changing sprockets/chain which I will finish tomorrow so postponing suits me...

[ducmeister]

Sounds like postponing is the way to go.  I'll be in Queensland for a couple of weeks from Sunday but I'll try to keep in touch.  Pick another date and I'll see if I can make it.

Cheers.

Hello chaps,

     Hope you had a good day out.
There was 14 of us including a ring on a Multi 1100 who rode the wheels off his bike all day.
We picked Big up at the 1st/2nd fuel stop where we lost the Multi who shot off home.
Excellent day for all, photos of course they are on my flickr below and on the Oz Monsters Flickr page now with up dated logo.

cheers
Matty...

Hi matty, Friday night was pretty wet and windy down here, and although Saturday saw a bit of sun peek through, it was still quite windy, so the ride was postponed. Well, I couldn't make it and I haven't heard otherwise.

Glad to hear you guy's up north had a great day out.

So how about another go, 16th or 23rd, who can make which?

as I said to the blonde and brunette on Friday night: I'm up for either!
