wow some beaut machinery on display there alright - tnx for posting

Some very nice machines. That Carberry looks interesting, never seen one before

Some nice bikes allright. 

Great pics FC .   Except for the poor old wombat .

Mighty Hodaka Wombats, first 3 bikes to reach the tip of Cape York, 1969 if my memory is any good, but I know it's not.

Ah well, got the model wrong, Ace not the Wombat, but it's been 35 years since I was told about it.

Posted the article but wasn't concerned about the recollection. Seems like the Cape may well be restricted at some time in the future. Was a little disappointed to see how poorly some of the bike tours treated the Cape. Like most things today, a minority fuck it for the majority.

Some places become victims of their own popularity. Always gonna be some dickheads...

And now as the development rd gets more tar each yr its getting more accessible for 2 wheel drive and family sedans. Still wouldn't recommend your Lambo but plenty of the indigenous boys do it it Falcons and Commodores.  

And wonderful to see Jack Ehret's Black Lightning out in public view, instead of being locked securely and privately away like most other possessions that cost 900 grand. Now I'm gonna ramble here, but I will bring it back on track. Got a text from my daughters partner a couple of days ago, he is getting rid of about 500 cds, asked if I wanted any, emailed through a series of pics of them in a shelf unit and said, choose what you want. So I've got about 200 cds coming, very wide mix. Amongst them is Rumour and Sigh, by Richard Thompson, English folk singer, whose most famous song is on that album.
