    sweet, say gidday when ya see me, I'll probably be the one in motorcycle gear,
    had to take a double take of ya post, i thought you said you were warming in the cook,
    the kitchen at the brass probably isn't the place to do that

    I try and find a Goldwing owner and camp on their lee side. They always have a massive tent and it works as a good windbreak for mine.

    Tent?
    Don't you just open the panniers and sleep under them?
