I've recorded my vague & blurry memories of the weekend's action packed adventures in my blog;

It's a bit of a long read but...whatever!!

Nice to meet some of the faces from last year and a few new ones. I didn't have much time for photos on the ride but look forward to seeing Nadroj's.

A big thanks to the Rustys and congrats to all the other participants...See yo'all next year!!

Top effort and great to see that the yellow jacket made it all the way...

Thanks matey, It's hard to get a photo of yourself on the move.

Best $13 I ever spent. It'll probably cost more than that to put rugged domes on it, but then, I don't expect to be out in those sort of conditions for a long time.

Respect on the 2,100km effort. I know from (bitter) personal experience what an arse of a thing an ST1300 is to ride in a big crosswind. There were certainly plenty of those on offer!

Who was the fourth 2,100-er? You, Ian, Dawson and ??

Yes, I was a bit tight across the back afterwards and had a wee bit of difficulty getting off the bike when I finally got in. A hot pool after and massage on the Tuesday certainly went down well.

I didn't know or meet the 4th rider. I believe he was on a beemer.
