    Lofty speaks...

    “Do not fear, for I am with you;  I will bring you from the east,  And gather you from the west, although there will be far more of you from the East than the West, And we shall meet at the Edenhope Pub where we will imbibe of the great spirit, and much rejoicing will be had, so sayeth the Lofty"

    fellas a great weekend. Although Diane didn't make it past 4.00pm. I hit the wall at about 9.00pm with nothing in my stomach and heaps of piss that was it for me. Again met some really great people. And yep a 3 day trip next year would be the go....

    I was pretty impressed with my wife as well no complaints except for when I put the music on repeat and she listened to the same song over and over for an hour.... LOL......shit song as well.

    Well we got to Tassie in one piece. Trip to Melbourne was good but bloody windy with the trailer, not much rain. We left early so that didn't have to associate with the Mexicans but the we kept leap frogging each other all the way to Melbourne.....


    Talk to you soon...




    Tassie? we haven't seen much as only been here today. but so far a lot like the UK, so looking forward to having a good look around.

    Well there is not much more that I can add, as it has been said by so many. What a great weekend with so many great people. Usually there is always one obnoxious twit that u cant get away from but for once I was the only one. LOL.

    Noit...... Shazza and I were so sad to hear of your loss, I reckon u already know that we are all here for ya so share mate. And mate no more punchin magpies, with all those feathers flyin I thought ur bike was disintegratin beside me.

    Thanx to all for makin it a top weekend, Mick and Di, Lofty, the other states for not winninthe vics for winnin the snake that grew legs and sprinted off the road at the sound of 20 Harleys chasin him on the way back from the Pub in the scrub, ados home brew, my T-bone at the pub , the pizzas at Derholm, and the all round great company, ohhh and snowie for keepin Shazza up until 4am on the satday mornin.

    And a big thanx from Bobo, he had a ball racin some horses around the paddock

    Then he read about the famous meat pies up there and the baker introduced himself (is he weighing Bobo??)

    Poor old Bobo is still ratshit from the weekend

    So its goodnight form him and me

    You'd think that baker would wake up & put the BIG BLOKE inside when we are in town...  

    I think it's the 2nd or 3rd year running he has gone walk about..

    KC... in keeping with my earlier title of 'Ambassador', a HD Forum sicker has been left on the front window of the Ettamooga Pub just outside Albury... it is sitting just below the "girls on horses' sticker... lol

    bugger with the reflection on the window.... Piglet, Ho, Gnoo, Dave

     

    I'll post up all my other pics later when I have time, or am back in Adelaide

    Good on you Ho,

    I think those stickers have proven to be very popular.  I'll get some more made up I reckon.

    Sorry to hear of your loss Noit and hope you get back on track --remember it's normal to feel grief for the loss of a loved one.

    My first pub run challenge and I had a ball riding with the Vics to and from Teds Cafe and the "pizza run" starting about 30 minutes after we arrived. Great to really give the BargeGlide a hard workout over 1300 klicks from home and back.

    Thanks to Lofty, Mick and Di, Kingchops and all organisers and forum admins for providing not only a great weekend but a great forum as well, and to all I met it was great to finally put a face to a handle after a year on the board! I wish I could have got around to all but will have a hell of a time remembering those who I did get to so bear with me.

    About 2 minutes after leaving Micks pub for the pizza run, my air cleaner cover fatigue cracked 360 degrees around the screw and I managed to hold it on with my knee till we got to the "Pub in the scrub". I never did really like the HD "nostalgia" cover anyway.

    K'chops I'm thinking about a new 'nick' instead of V2Evo96 so I'll PM you to see if it can easily be done-- if not there will be a "new member" onboard soon.

    Cheers All,

    V2evo96 (aka Brent)

    Yep us NSW Riders were a bit sleepy and sooky so off to bed we went.

    However, we have already committed to making the next Run a more direct one so we can meet more people face to face instead of in cyberspace.

    A two-night event would be excellent to ensure a good catch up with everyone.

    Fabulous to meet the people I did get to to speak with.

    Below we are getting close to Edenhope

    Arrived at Lake Wallace Hotel.

     

     

    The Vic Riders arriving.....

    Breakfast - Edenhope - Sunday Morning before leaving town with Uncle Ho & Gnoo.

     

     

    Overall Impression - Nice to Meet Nice People.
