Nambucca Heads = a time to see mates that I only to get to see once a year….and it’s here at this location on this FarRide, that’s enough of a reason to get out for a ride for me. Apologies in advance there aren’t many pics this time. Friday plan: Home-Bulga-Tamworth-Barraba-Glen Innes, easy peasy right! …

Overnighter to Long Flat, sensational idea! Alas, it is only the 3 of us though – Karl, Paul & me. This’ll be Daisy’s first real road (teething) trip. We’ve, well Karl has done a bit to her, I’ve done the pretty stuff and think I’ve figured out the packing for a trip (in particular a …

ha ha ha…….as many times as you want!! that was Karl’s plan. This ride was Karl’s brain child in a small window of opportunity (these don’t come by very often). The seeds were sown and the lonely flower of the group did what she does best, booked some great accommodation while the thorns set about plotting a …

It started 6 years ago, of which Karl and I have attended for 5 of them and met some wonderful folk that enjoy our past time of motorcycle riding. We have an international inclusion this year with …

Prelude Weekend prior I purchased a Garmin Zumo 660 GPS, updating the Aldi GoPro I’d grown used to – very easy to use (read Kimmie proof here). So with another friend Phill headed to Breakfast Torque and then onto Robbo Pie Shop using the Zumo with the pre-programmed route I’d set. Well to say it …

Saturday morning and what a surprise, it’s been raining….how typical..LOL. I don’t think any one us (well maybe Paul) got a decent nights sleep). Brian as sent a text saying “I’ll meet you girls out the front”, no worries Brian at least you are OK and the bike is sorted. Packed and ready we roll …

Waiting, waiting for the start to come around on Friday so Paul, Phill & I can get on the official part of the ride. Karl will be catching us up down the road. We collect Brian and it’s 31 degrees at Pheasants Nest and oh boy, hoping the weather stays like this. Well, ya know …
