    It's a very pretty little town and if you havent been there, its one road in and the same road out, built on the side of a hill on the river ( for gold prospecting).

    We left Sofala and had a great ride theu to Kandos, Rylston, thru the Bylong Valley and across to Sandy Hollow for a late lunch at the pub. Refueled and did a run up the New England Hwy for an overnight stop in Tamworth. We are going to have a late start tomorrow and have a wander around here before deciding where to head for tomorrow night. Little bloke like me needs his rest, so till tomorrow, nite all.
    Cheers Dougal

    Hi all
    We Left Tamworth this morning after eggs benedict and coffee (the buggers never brought any back for me) and headed up to Uralla. The highway was boring so Ian took a detour and headed nth west to Bungarra for morning tea & coffee. We went for a walk down the main street for a pitstop and the Rozzers pulled over a dodgey looking toyota with young people in it, at first we though they got nicked for speeding thru town (50kph area) but on our way back up the street, the highway patrol pulled up and they started stripping the car searching for something ( cant trust toyota drivers can ya) We started heading for Inverell and another car of Rozzers with lights flashing flew by into town for back up, that bloke must have been as dodgey as a $3 note!. After fueling up in Inverell

    We continued north west to Bonshaw and then east to Reedy Creek winery, 55km east of Tentefield where we pick up a cheeky little merlot for dinner tonite at the local gourmet pizza restaraunt. If you get out here, you gotta try them, never had a bad one yet. Unloaded all our gear at the motel for tonight, cuppa coffee time now, and then out for pizza.
    Thx X-Box. Will do.
    Cheers all

    After a nice brekkie at Tentefield we rode out past Rover Park, thru to Casino, Lismore and Clunes were Ian's sister has just bought a small farm. The last owner literally walked away from everything on the property including 3 x 3 bedroom houses that can be rented out, tractor, 14 cows and 5 new born calves, 2 sheds full of stuff including coffee machines, tools, electrical gear and the list just goes on. We stayed till 3.30pm them went back to Lismore and did the run to Cawongla, Uki, murwillumbah and over Numinbah back home . 2960km averaging 4.4ltr/100km fully loaded. Now to unpack.
    Cheers all
