08 Snowy Mountains Ride (teaser)

[DJ Down Under]

We got back last night after three full days of riding...It was our annual Snowy Mountains ride.

We had some awesome roads..perfect weather..great food..and excellent friends on the ride.

I've just started to sort though..load my pictures..and also learn how to use Photo bucket.

This is a test that all is working ok..and a taste of what's to come..btw..I have heaps of pics..(I hope not too many).

DJ, you are truly an artist.

Looks like a fantastic pictorial is on its way.

Superb as usual DJ Thanks. Food looks delicious, now I'm hungry.

Hope no one was hurt in "the Crash".

I was just thinking the same thing! Tell the story DJ.

[Boxerboy]

There's not too much to tell really.
Left hand corner, poorly compacted road stone, loss of traction....splatt!
Bike needed some roadside repair to a hole in the engine cover and we had to replace lost brake fluid as the lid flew off and dumped its contents. A small donation of dot 4 from each bike and we were away.

Rider ok, with some gravel rash, but able to finish the next 800ks of the ride.

Judging by the damage to surrounding ground and scrub at least two other bikes had met a similar fate on the same corner.

Disappointing for Peter, but he's obviously one tough bastard to endure what must have been an aching body for the 10 hour ride home the following day. As he was heard to say that night over a few beers and chunks of steak.." a crash you can walk away from is a good one"...or something to that effect. ATGATT.

Peter sounds like a tough bastard. Glad everything turned out okay.
Have to agree with Willie on this, "All's well that ends well".
Thanks for the info Boxerboy.

[Sir Limpsalot]

You certainly seem to have (A) got the hang of photobucket, and (B) not lost your touch with showing us the pic's we want to see!

Crack on with it Deej, we can't wait.

Si.

[Elsie Smith]

Okay, goodie, pictures, I've been waiting for them to start showing up.
Looks like I'd better lose MORE weight before November, as that breakfast sandwich is just the thing I'd love!
