Hi All,
My Rangie will have a new home from this Saturday. I'm going back to two wheels again only for the forseeable future. At least it's going to a good home and will see more offroad than I could afford to show it :cry:
I'd like to say 'thank you' to everyone who helped and offered advice in the short time I've been here, you guys and girls are the best.
If you see a guy riding a black Honda VFR750 wearing an AULRO t-shirt it'll be me! 8O
Thanks again, the new owner knows nothing of Rovers, I'll refer him to you guys if he has any questions.
Thanks again.
Cheers Scott. Roverless.

Thanks for the best wishes. You're right Rangieman, 27 years on bikes has taught me to be very careful!
Don't worry Ron, I'll still follow the Forums.I still have my rangie5litre tee shirts!
Still do the nudist thing too.......I have to walk on to the beach though! :roll:
Cheers Scott.

You could still get off road on a bike just make certain its not a road racer. Hope you got a good price.

I hear you rangieman. I'll be very careful. Not so sure about the good price george130........I made a swap!
The new owner will certainly use it when his wife isn't, he's a keen camper. His wife loved the driving position too. BTW the new owner is an an ex Landcruiser person[40 series diesel] Bit of a sea-change eh?
I tried to sell it for a while, people just arn't buying V8's, at least now it'll be driven regular
Cheers Scott.

Of course, being big bad 4wd owning fat obnoxious aboriginal hating homophobic aggressive slobs - there's little chance we'll not hit you. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif

Thanks Vlad,
I'll be careful of all those oversize dangerous 4WD's....of course I consider a
75 tonne B Double with a tired driver in a hurry a much bigger threat 8O
Tomorrow is my last drive of the Rangie :cry:
I bet it rains on me on the way home :roll:
Cheers Scott.

mmmm, Rain God? I dunno but the last time I was on bikes fulltime was the last time Sydneys Warragamba dam was full 8O 8O
Usually how my luck goes :roll: When I first bought the Rangie premium unleaded near my place was 98 cents a litre, within one month it was 110 cents! aaaaaargh!
Such is life! style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif
