My guess is you are travelling over the Bingleburra from Gresford to Dungog young Sweaty.

Spot on young Jefferey 👍

@ sweaty... pics look great!  Gotta ask tho... green brake fluid? Or just a trick of the light?

Definitely not a trick, bit of  a blueish green. No idea what brand it is, as the shop did it about 12 months ago.

Sweaty

Added another 500kms to the bike, including a good run through the Oxley & surrounding areas. Now shacked up for the night at East Gresford in a great looking little country pub. Now this is the life 🍻

I did 50% of the 120k service last night. I filled the scotoiler & got  new front tyre fitted as the old one was balded on the righthand side. I'll do the oil & filter later this week ready for going away.

As soon as the weather clears up Col, my advise is. Just get out there and do it mate. You forget how good it is, to just get out on your own, and go where ever you like or stop where ever you like etc. As I said before, this was a spur of the moment decision on Friday, after seeing the lack of work I had on and the nice weather forecast (well, no rain, but cool and sunny) in the area I was heading.
Been some fantastic riding & roads, &
met some nice people along the way & currently drinking a lot more than I should be with some really friendly locals in a great little town.
For the record. I have a sensational wife & family etc, but everyone should get out on there own for a few days  ride when they can.  :cheers:

agree Sweaty. have done same, just land wherever. on my list now. get motivated, youre sure have me. good travelling mate, i know the feeling, just play freebird at full volume. job well done.

Sweaty

Funny you say that Grog. This is the first time I brought the iPod with me & just had it on shuffle while riding. Found a good level, where I could hear the music enough, but not to loud to drown everything out (well so I think)
Quite enjoyed it 👍

Hooli

It's bike related so...


I got the route finished last night, all hotels and ferries booked leaving Dover at 4am this saturday. Just need the tour pass for the toll roads in Austria now as it's cheaper online. Oh & do an oil & filter change on the bike.

14 days doing around 3k miles & getting as far away as Bled glacial lake in Slovenia. Can't wait.

Oh yeah & my tomtom hasn't arrived yet! but it is due today according to ebay.

Sweaty

Sounds like a great trip coming up Hooli. Good on ya & have a great time.

Hooli

Serviced my 14 today, it's ready for europe now. Had to do the 120k service 170miles early which feels wrong but I run out of time to do the extra miles  :grin:

Leaving about 10pm & I'll have to stop somewhere near that thar lunden for a 120k shot, then on to the ferry & away.

seth
