What an amazing place!
The hardship and sacrifices endured are unfathomable in this day and age.

Nah Harry, all good. It's a bit cool first thing in the morning and late arvo. But during the day its actually quite plesant. Off to the national museum tomorrow, but for now we are enjoying a nice bottle of red with dinner. Doogs is all tuckered out and has gone to bed.
Hi all
We Went to the national museum today, very interesting but i couldnt get to the exibits to have my photo taken with them. They were either roped off or under glass. Ian did get a couple of photos of the steam engine his Grandad built when he worked for the NSWGR, the 3801, the fastest steam engine Australia ever built, and a couple of shots of one of the first 48-215 Holdens. We had to find a motorcycle accessory store this afternoon as Ian's rain jacket zipper grenaded, the clouds were threatening but after we came out of the shop, the sky was blue again but the wind cut straight thru you. After a lesuirely ride this arvo, We are at Bungendore tonight enjoying a meal at the local pub. Attachment 83964

Hi all
We loaded the bikes at Bungendore this morning only to see this in the carpark of the Inn we stayed at. It is owned by Don the gardener and used to be a Bungendore RFS truck. Unfortuneatly he was asked to paint over the brigade stickers on the doors. 1967 2a, Six cylinder factory landy motor and still running sweet. He also has another 2a at home and a series 1 as well which he is rebuilding from a lot of boxes it was delivered in. It took Steph 1/2hr to get Ian out of there (tragic ain't it). After breakkie we got a phone call to inform us that a lifelong friends father had passed away which was sad but has been coming for a while now so it wasnt a great shock. We left for Goulbourn, had a walk around to stretch the legs and then rode to Oberon for lunch at the local pub, extremely cold thru Abercrombie national park but very pretty country. Luckily the 5 layers of clothes with wet weather gear on top stopped the wind slicing thru us. Heading for Bathurst tonight with a nice meal out to celebrate Steph & Ian's 26th wedding anniversary. We will have to take a run around Bathurst tomorrow before heading off to Sofala and all points north and back into some warmer country.
Cheers all

Well we got to Bathurst and as the weather looked a bit ominous, with 5 layers of clothes on we went for a lap or 3 of Mt Panorama incase it decided to rain. ( none yet thankfully) Well Steph behaved herself for the most part but Ian reckons his throttle got stuck a bit open, especially on Conrad after a 1st precautionary run around the track. How those guys maintain so much speed thru the chicain at the end of Conrod is amazing as it's a lot tighter than it looks. it was a hellava lot of fun though!!!!!
Cheers Doog's.
