In the absence of anything going for May down my way, thought I'd organise another ride. This time to Moulamein, NSW. Rider-registration is now open at Ridemaster link just click on the Moulamein (NSW) iRode Ride link.

Hi Roy, maybe PM Taffey as he said he was going to put a link to registration on Ride Master.

Although having registration on this site for an iRode makes more sense.

I'm planning on making it as an iRode 1000.

Might see you there.

Hiya Roy, from memory, and yes it is alarming I can't remember how I did this last week, too many other things being mentally digested, when you register on Ridemaster there is an option to select the ride you are nominating for. There are several to choose from. Tick the box for the ride you are planning on riding.

I can't check this process as I've already registered.

Another Farroad event done and dusted

16 souls took on flood ravaged roads, the odd speed camera and the occasional sets of road trains, one after another to venture to Moulamein.

Now when I was last in Moulamein, things were a little dicey with water lapping at the township's doors, so with that in mind, and water levels thankfully down, I thought a ride to spend some shells would be a good as any excuse to get out on the road.

I personally set out for a hobbits run (there and back again), leaving a very wet, cold and miserable Adelaide Hills at 4 something am. It didn't leave a lot of time to do the usual photographic coverage, regretfully, but I did manage to pip two other riders to first the front of the Tattersalls Hotel in Moulamein (GZ).

16 riders had indicated interest, 13 via Ridemaster and 3 via the Down the Road Facebook group and 16 dutifully arrived within the 30 minute book-in time.

Pleasingly, most stayed on for a lunch at the very accommodating pub.

Tall tales were told with a number of identities holding court while a number of us listened on with a keenness that only a long-distance rider can comprehend. But all too soon, time had moved on and riders were progressively bidding farewell until next time.

Thanks to everyone that made it. A genuine pleasure to coordinate for the excuse of getting out there in the landscape; just rider and their bike.

Until the next one.
