    Oh dear, how sad, never mind.

    Cleaned the bike so just went for a roady ride heading to St Arnaud.

    I may or may not have left an imprint of a valve cover on the ground in a few places over the course of my ride.

    Went for a ride out to Slater Rd & back. Best 50 Ks riding I've done in a long time. Filled in 3 hrs of my day.

    Next tyres I'm getting will be knobblies.

    The forecast for the weekend is good!!! Anyone up for a gentle ride? Mungatapu, Porika, Glenhope or wherever anyone wants to go - multiple coffee stops - Sunday would be best?
    Cheers

    If my tyre changer gets off his arse and puts the new 705 on the rear of the DR and I do an oil change on Sat, I should be in

    I wouldn't mind having a go over the Maungatapu, the GS will make it a new challenge, but am worried that the tall screen won't fit under the rope at the top.

    Pity haven't seen you for years - anyway Mungatapu it is - coffee at Pelorus? and then perhaps Hebberds to Tinline - then Mt Duppa (never been up there) and or Hori Bay? Anything would be good, stabilisers are back on!

    Mobil Richmond at 11.00 am Sunday then the caretaker's gate around 11.45.
    Cheers
