    Hi all, I am now in Geelong all safe and sound, had a interesting ride from Port Augusta up through the Clare valley to Murray Bridge because it rained the whole way.  Stayed at Horsham Monday night and went via Hamilton to get to Geelong because I have never been though there before.  Will move onto my fathers place at Garfield tomorrow and saty about a week with him before I return home to Perth.
    Oh and I just love riding this Bloody Big Black Bike I have.

    Sounds like you are having fun PIB.

    It is amazing how good the HD touring bikes are for touring. They eat miles with the same gusto as a fat kid eats chocolate cake.

    We need more pics. Actually not too many as I am itching to get back out on the road as it is.

    cheers

    I did the 1300 k's to mandura on fri, 1300 in 11.5 hrs lol.... then 200 or so to the border sat morning. Met up with pigiron bob sat arvo (first time since 1979) and a bunch of like minded long distance riders.

    Return trip sun nearly 1500 k's in 14.5 hrs....my ultra just eats the miles. I have extended the list of must gets for the next run lol

    Yep was good to catch up with you after such a long time Tom. Agree about the tank bag as well could have used one on this trip.
    I am now at my fathers place in Garfield on the east side of Melb, will rest a few days and spend some time with the old boy befor I head on home.
