Sounds good, but I'm working weekends at the moment

I often do rides in the week with a couple of me mates on k bikes so weekdays are possible for me but maybe not for some others cheers Ab.

When I saw the title of this thread I started to wonder just how old were some of the forum members.

We might have a few Georgian members as well as Victorian. But we have a Viking member here in the Irish Eccentrics so that goes back pretty far......

G'day Ab, I'm in, weekends mostly available.

Going to the GP?

cheers

Hi  Andy , Yeah I think a weekend run will suit most . Haven't decided on the GP yet ,always used to go but last few years I do the  run down from Cranny on Sat and then watch with some coldies at home on Sunday ,I reckon you see more of the race that way. When are you heading down . I may do Sunday this year if the weather is looking good but you know the island I wont decide till late in the week. AB

Hey mate, starting on Wednesday, riding up to Parkes in NSW to meet a mate who's riding down from Brissy, then we'll ride back to Melbourne Thursday, and down to the island Friday morning - camping trackside - .............I cant wait to meet up with him in Parkes!!..................he's riding his R1 down............I should be able to hear his screams of pain from Forbes!!!!!! hahahahah.
Mind you I've done it in reverse on an R1 about 10 years ago all the way around by coast, and survived...........

may ride from the island back to cranny for the run so he gets to experience it Sat. morning.........see how the heads are......

We got gen. admin tickets and to the GP hub tent at turn 1 for the 3 days.

Cant wait, races and a good road trip too!

and yeah, watching the weather map for Cowes almost hourly on my phone!!!!

maybe catch you there........cheers!

Sounds  great Andy . Have a great ride and watch out for mr plod they will be out in force as always gp weekend I've got your number so I may give you a call for sat but it 's pretty hard to find anyone on the mad Saturday run. I will hang around cowes for a while admiring the fine machinery might be able to hook up there. If not we will definitely get a ride organized soon  . Cheers AB

Andy, send Aus a Glympse. Makes it easy to find each other.

Enjoy guys. Very jealous.

They should move it back to Eastern Creek.
And keep Philip Island.
Back to back weekends. Oh the joy.

Looks like Andy is on his way.

Ride safe.

Obey the speed limits.

Too late.

 

This is from Glympse.
Have a look folks and follow Andy and his mate as they travel to Melbourne.
Think it is smoko at the moment. The last leg was a long one. Almost 1/2 hour

Enjoy Andy.. stay safe mate.

Just had a look at  the Glympse you put up rossko  , never heard of it before it's awesome this is going to be so handy on runs  when some one goes missing,  hooking up to it now  Thanks AB
