It's the week after the muster. I'll register if not too late but will let you know if I can't make it.

Hi Taffey
Unfortunately not able to make this ride as my mums operation has been put back to the week of this ride, would have loved to catchup again, the old ST is raring for long rides once again.
Regards
Ian W

Sorry folks, that which I feared has come and I am out.

Good problem to have I guess, I'm helping out at another church this weekend. Looking forward to the next ride though!

For those who like to watch,

Nothing epic, just a cruisy, ease back into it kind of ride, and off the clock. First time doing a bit of distance in 3 years, so hoping the bike behaves itself. Extended idle time can do funny things to machinery. Goes live at 10am Friday.

Home at 3:30, all good. 1933 km for the weekend. Great to meet up with the intrepid few on Saturday morning, and really nice to be out for a ride again. It had been far too long between rides. But I do have a few pains where I've never had them before. Small price to pay. And the bike performed faultlessly. Many thanks to Taffey for organising this one. Hope I can do the next.

Been tardy in my report. For yours truly, completed 1126km in just under 14 hours in a route that took me from Balhannah in the Adelaide Hills out to Moulamein via Tooleybuc and then home via Balranald, Mildura and Swan Reach. Very pleased with road fitness given this is my first >1000 since October.

Get another chance over Easter to do the ride to Canberra.

Phil Chick and Barry Quinn from Mildura stopped for lunch after checking in with a conforming docket on their way to completing a FR800 and Walshy was just out for the ride. Just let's not talk about the lake.

Keep an eye out for a winter's ride to Blinman which is currently under consideration.

Cheers
