    Cargo took some great shots on the go but only put up a couple. I like the one of the people on the bridge waving. Got our badges and T's etc. Will they have one next year now?

    Well it was an "ok" ride despite the weather, 500 or so bikes. Not as fun as last year due to the fact we had cages on the motorway. Due to this I think the safety level has dropped for the ride. Thankfully no one became victim. They really do need to close the motorway – I don’t think it would have been nice if it was a full turn out of bikes and cages.
    The prize giving was quite a laugh with lots of the tickets not being sold.
    Hopefully the ride still runs in the coming years.

    The numbers were about half of last year but they still raised $8000 for the rescue service. I guess that means that those who turned up were really worth having.
    I may not be as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I always was.

    I like picture #5.
    The bikes are very discreet through the window.

    It was definately a good ride.

    The Biker Gods are propitaiated. For a short while. So long as no idiot offends them.

    Make your own sacrifices , but remember the Biker Gods are Chaotic. So no Black Unicorns. White mice are fine.

    Yes the biker gods are chaotic...yes maybe they even have feelings.

    Dont sneeze too hard you might wake the neighbours.
