    Sounds like a good week end was had by all. The weather seems to have been kind also, photo's look good with some most interesting bikes on display. How many bikes participated on Saturdays ride ?? How good is Murdo's form, 3bikes=3 trophies can't complain about that. Does anyone know how much money was raised for the week end, just curious.

    I do have a solar charger/battery pack but it was drained by the GPS!

    Currently in Goulburn, about an hour from home. Here's a shot of Scarlet fully loaded in the McDonald's car park:

    Scarlet got me safely home, with a list of maintenance tasks that I now know she needs.

    I'll work out the total distance but average fuel consumption was between 20 and 24 km/litre.

    The 2018 show had 43 bikes on display and with a cool breeze blowing kept the heat of the day down to comfortable level ensuring a large crowd passed through.

    This years show was a bit low key (and very smokey- good to be able to see what your breathing) with only 26 bikes on display.

    Look at this bucket of puss. He paid big money for it because it has 'Dues ex Machina' on it. Fool. Shows teachers get paid too much.
