Jerrycan & I are heading out from Kyolge on Tuesday morning 3/1 if anyone is up for a day ride if anyone is interested. We could meet in Murwillumbah or Kyolge if that suits any Brissy guys. Plan is Toonumbah Forest Rd, Peacock Ck, Hootons Rd and home via Paddys Flat, Boomi Ck Rd to Woodenbong then home. Ride is very subject to Weather.  Yeehaa!

Ahh, but where your theory falls down is that last time I wasn't going, then I was poke.


Enjoy riding your fully kitted Adventure bike around the suburbs That's funny !

Wats a theory ???
 puzzled Hmmmmm...

You allowed to stay home if it is raining
Ridding around in circles for 5-6 hrs is no fun at all
Specially when the wet weather gear is designed to keep you wet

I'm a broken man.

At 10.00 I thought it would be a good idea to fit the knobbies to the bike, so I head out to the garage to be confronted by the piles of crap that I have ignored for the past few months.

So after 5 hours of sweeping, stacking and binning crap I should have throw months ago, I finally have enough room to fit a small car in the garage..... and room enough to change a bike tyre.

Changing cold tyres adds a degree of difficulty that I could have avoided by leaving them in the sun, but I didn't plan far enough ahead to do that.

So the wheels are on and seem to be holding air Holy smokes!, so fingers crossed I'll just walk out there tomorrow morning, kick her in the guts and ride Ride on!
