    5 Weeks to go... and she's shaping up nicely.... going to be a top day out..!?

    Still looking for sponsors to make it a success for our charity... but the lads are out there doing there best... bit different this year.. by this time last year.. we had more then enough to make the day a success... but this year... not so easy.. guess it's a bit tighter now a days.. but still getting a few on board..!?  Will list them on our club website soon (www.patriotsmoretonbay.org)

    Hope to see you all there..!?

    Less then 3 weeks to go... all is coming together nicely..!?

    Got the Recky ride this Sunday.. and then all the final planning..!?

    Will be a top day...!?

    Don't forget to say hello..?  Would be good to catch up..!? I'll be the bloke running around like a mad man trying to keep the day on track.. and then running the bike show..!?

    Ya can't miss me... white haired bloke with massive side burns.. hence the name "Chops"...

    Our crew did the Reccy run yesterday.. the weather was perfect...!?  Lets hope it's the same on the day..!? Ride route all good... as there doesn't appear to be any major road works happening at the mo'... but this is Queensland... so that can change in a week or so...  :o

    For the Roll the Dice.. there's good money up for grabs for 1st, 2nd and last place...!? Plus some good stop overs for a refreshing drink (and a feed if you want it)..!? It's a simple run... with some twisties in the middle... nothing overly challenging.. and you can ride at your own pace..!?

    All the rest of the planning is taking shape nicely... but I got to pull me finger out and sort the bike show stuff (the bike show will take place upon return to the clubrooms)..!? Anyone keen.. there's a good number of Trophies on offer (Entrants need to have registered for the Roll the Dice Run)... and possibly prizes to go with it (need to confirm as it gets closer)!?

    * Bike of Show
    * Peoples Choice
    * Best Harley
    * Best Non Harley
    * Best Paint
    * Best Trike

    Entertainment... Raffles... food... drinks... great company & more...!?

    HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL THERE...!?

    Busy weekend just had... been running around painting signs.... printing shit out... sorting out flag poles... run shit here... run shit there... and I got the whole family on to it...!?

    I've just finished washing the bike... and anyone that knows me well enough... knows that don't happen too often... fuck... lucky this show only happens once a year...

    Off to pick up some more gear this arvo.. then finalise the bike show shit during the week.. plus a few other things... then Kaos hit's Friday/Friday night... and I'll be flat out Saturday... all fucking day..!?  Will be looking forward to my first JD.... but that won't happend till later at night (for us PMB members)... cause them the rules...!? As this day is for everyone to enjoy... and to raise some good money for some good people... but for us members... well... it's our time to sweat... and proudly...!?

    Hope to see you all there on Saturday... reckon the weather.. will be set... for what looks to be a top day...!?

    All good mate...!?

    We ride no matter what... well... except in Tornados... well.. that's only cause we haven't been tested on that yet.. LOL... but let's not go there..!?

    I've checked the forecast.. and they've said possible thunder storms for Sat... Possible.. and thunder storms.. so I guess the positive is that it's not saying rain... so 'possibly'.. a thunderstorm in the arvo.. which shouldn't affect the ride.. by the time it would likely hit.. we should be back at the clubrooms.. on our third or fourth bourbon.. winning monies, raffles and trophies...!?

    I guess if it does rain.. it will sort out the 'true riders'...!?

    Glass half full mate...!?  Glass half full..!?

    What else are peoples going to do anyways.. sit at home.. nope.. not for me... I'd rather be out on the bike getting wet.. then be sitting at home in front of the idiot box..!?  But maybe that make me the idiot.. LOL...

    Looks like the weather is going to hold... mostly clear till late in the arvo.. and then only a possible shower (which we are due to be back at the clubrooms before).. if any..!? Link: http://www.weatherzone.com.au/qld/brisbane/brisbane/detailed-forecast

    Good news for us.. and great news for you all... looks like it's going to be a top day for a ride.. then the bike show.. heaps of raffles.. good tunes... a fair few trade stalls, including the UMCQ stall.. Top food and a freshing ale.. or a thousand..!?

    See you all in the morning... there's a Coffee Van.. BBQ breaky and Pancakes available.. so don't waste any time at home.. well... unless I eat all the Pancakes before ya get there...!?  ;D

    Not sure how much sleep I'm going to get in the next 36 hours.. still got heaps to do.. and plenty of running around...!?  Nothing a fair few Jacks wont' fix tomorrow night..  ;D ;D

    Hope you all can make it... to remember those who have died or suffered for Australia's cause in all wars and armed conflicts & to also proudly raise funds for our local charity - Breakaway Inc.

    Absolutely spewin that we didn't make this run.
    Had a mishap at work on Thursday & the back & right elbow are such that there's no way i could've ridden.
    Bloody shame about the crashed bike.
    I was admiring that bike at Northside Motorcycle tyres & service only a couple of weeks ago, sad to see it looking like that.

    Big thanks to all of the crew who helped us raise some great money on the day...!! Hope you all enjoyed.... ?

    We like to run it with Military Precision... and hoped it sort of comes off that way on the day..!?

    It was a perfect Weather day... good/great Run (although... too many cars on the Hwy)... and some great peoples... and heaps of everything on offer.. although... didn't see any tits out..!? Not even at 2am this morn...!? (Will have to fix that for next year)..!?

    Had two come off on the first leg.. both for at the same moment...? Got main trashed bike sorted and did a drop off to get the rider (or was that superman) to a mate who was taking him to hospital to get checked out...! He'll be sore... and likely some sort of fracture to his left leg... but hitting the back of an almost stationary car at about 80 - 90 Klicks.. will do that..!? The other bloke dropped his bike at low kays.. and it was still rideable... he's pissed tho'.. cause it only came out of the shop a week prior..!?

    Apart from all that.. it was smooth running..

    And apologies for anyone on the ride... as ya probably saw... I was running around like a mad man... and I didn't have a chance to catch up with any many.. if any..!?

    Although... once the run and bike show was done... I smashed in to a heap of JD's, kicked back and caught up with those who had settled in to the music and company.....!?

    I've only just got home now... and just...!?  Could do with a new Liver and a couple of kidneys...!? Off to cleanse myself.. and crashe out for a bit...!?

    Once again... a big thanks to all..!?

    And insaneryder... was good to catch up mate.. as briefly as it was...!?
