    Seeing Robo61 is made of sugar and Woodgate was called off, some us Rocky lads went on the Poker Run.

    Started at the Pioneer Hotel for BBQ brunch and registration.

    Outside the Pioneer Hotel. Als1200 sporty, A mates Rocker, My Fatbob.

    The two scary looking blokes are Evoshovel and Als1200.

    From the Pioneer we headed to Mt Morgan's Golden Nugget Hotel. All was looking good until we got to the top of the range and it started to piss down. I was behind Bill on his Rocker C and the 12ft rooster tail that comes off the sucker is impressive! It only lasted 5 mins then we were in Mt Morgan.

    From there it was onto Dululu Pub. This leg remained dry so the pace had picked up some what and the 70kms to the next pub was dusted in no time at all. Not much to say about Dululu Pub other than the people are friendly and the Beers cold.

    The next pub was only 35kms away at Westwood. For my mate Bill this was the most exciting stretch. He was in the middle of the group and had no warning of a hugh pothole. Well lets say he now has an invite to ride with the crusty demons! It was the first time anyone has see a Heal Clicker follow by a superman on a harley. Amazingly he kept it all together and avoided a very bad crash.

    Evoshovel front and centre blowing you guys a Kiss.

    From Westwood it was a miserable ride in the pouring rain back into Rocky to draw the last card at the Rebels Club House. They put on a BBQ dinner and a DJ. So we hung around for a few more beers before heading home in another massive down pour.

    Evoshovel walked away with a trophy for Best Other. Not sure what best other means tho.

    All in all it was still a good day out on the bike even with the weather against us.
