Nice pics HB, that was'nt at Lakeside Park was it?

Cheers

[Headbanger]

Yep, Lakeside Park it is.

I'm told there was only a fraction of the bikes at this event compared to previous years which is a bit of a shame.

Thought parts of your pics looked familiar. Went to a couple of classic meets there about ten years ago when i was living over there.
Love watching the classics where rider skills and reliable machinery are the key to success.
How's it all going for you over there?

Workin out pretty fucking sweet.

Bought me a nice big pad with a pool and outdoor entertainment area, filled it up with tv's, stereo systems, leather couches, sheds full of bikes and toys.

Got a good job that pays well where no one asks me what I'm doing or where I am, Just knocked over another diploma so I've got a broad amount of qualifications backing me up.

The sun is shining, and its only been 2 days since I spent some time on the bike with good people on some stunning roads.

Plus, When I get home tonight there is an ice cold beer just waiting for me to drink it.

Rub it in - why don't ya.. L.O.L... Bet its not Speights beer, but.. L.O.L...

Anyhow, here's some cool pix from Lakeside ~40 years ago, when today's classic racing was current..

Some older blokes might fondly recall V. Coburn's titty paint job from the Marlboro Series in NZ..

Hey HB, that sounds sweet. Qld sure is a great place to be with lots of opportunities for work and play and some great rides especially in the Hinterland.
Can get a bit hairy on the M1 though as most vehicles appear to have no indicators or rear view mirrors and talking on mobile phones is almost compulsory. LOL
Loved my time there but family reasons reqd my return back home.
Enjoy, Cheers

The motorway is not a nice place to be, I do my best to avoid it.

We went up over Mt Glorious and Mount Nebo on the weekend, Nothing but corners and hills.
