Another sleep in “NOT”…lol, you’d think I’d get used to it but am just accepting that the sleep in will have to wait until I get home. Ghosty, Carsten & Lionel (3 FarRiders) asked Anny & I to witness documentation last night for their attempt at a SS1600. So this morning they are up early …

It’s the morning that I wish wouldn’t come. The saying hooroo to all my new friends, and to my new best friends Phil & Kim. So hugs all round and Kimmo & I just put the inevitable off as long as we could.  It was a teary “catchy later”, this woman Kimmo, I swear Darani had in her …

Our day off today, well after the official ride through Alice’s Todd Mall anyway. What a great nights sleep, but I think I’m just used to waking early that I can’t sleep past 6:15am grrrr. Had been teed up to meet with Phil, Kimmo, Noel & Audrey for breaky down at the Tavern. My first real …

It’s surprising how good I slept last night in our bat cave (3×3 room carved into rock) to wake to only a few bikes this morning as CH9 were doing broadcasts from where we were staying. Martin the manager has got fire pits going all over the grounds for us as it’s a bit brrrrrr. Hundreds …

Sorry for missing yesterday but we had time constraints. Nyngan, how damn cold does it get, well I’ll give you the guff, man it was -2 deg (and people live there….). I shared a cabin with another lady and took pity on this poor bloke (Steve, one of many Steve’s) who was camping but we …

I woke this morning at 5:36 to the sound of birds tweeting and the bloke in the tent behind my cabin snoring…LOL It was a hard morning for me. I’d packed up and was ready to go and wham, the flood gates of emotions took hold. The memory of my best friend on the 1 …

You couldn’t have asked for a better morning, the sun out, the skies clear and all is good. A deep breathe and I roll out the drive for our meet point in Castle Hill. The street is blocked off and so many bikes already there when I arrive. I saw sense and parked close to …

The emotions are a pot just burbling away at the moment, just waiting to escape. I know they will catch up with me & boil over it’s just a matter of when. I’m already to go & have received today & tonight so many well wishes that I am truly greatfull for. Thank you again …
