Greygum or Melt
Filler ride to the Greygum Cafe on the Putty on Sunday. The weather around here is meant to be MUCH friendlier than ‘away’. Meet at Tuggerah Maccas at 8am for an 8:30am departure. Plan how to get a holiday ride to completion 🙂
Texas Revisited
Spending the night in Texas, having a few XXXX’s in the local. Did an extra loop out through Warialda and then up to Goondiwindi. Very hot but the Beemer is going like a champion even if it has blown the headlight. Fang along the Bruxner Highway tomorrow, dropping in at Drake and then down to […]
Italian Film Festival – Newcastle
Displayed ‘the Monster’ at the Italian Film Festival held in Newcastle recently. A fun weekend with Italian films on show (obviously), italian food, music and a display of italian vehicles all held in Crown Street. Had a set of Conti’s fitted just before the festival – now sounds like a real Ducati!
The Little Two Fity that Could.
Nige and Young Nige presently camping at Bourke on our way to Cobar and across to Broken Hill. Today was particularly pleasant riding as it was only 39c and blowing a gale as we rode directly west into the setting sun for hours. 11:15pm as I write this and it has dropped all the way […]
Any Holiday Rides Planned?
Haven’t heard anything from anyone – any Nige’s still out there……hello……hello…….! Any rides planned for holiday period?
Way Past Walcha – September 2012
It was a flurry of excitement last Monday at McDonalds. We were nearly all there of course: Nige, Sideways, Ant, Killswitch, Lucky, and Mohawk. Sadly many others were unavailable for various reasons. The weather was perfect and the roads were dry. Lucky led the way to Wollombi and Ant from there to Broke. Where was […]
Scrounger & Droop’s ‘Big Trip’
Greetings Fellow Niges – Droop & I finally set off on our big adventure last Mon 3rd Sept and tonight I sit in a tent in Penong Caravan grounds tapping away at my iPad trying to update my social networks – ahhh, the technology is marvelous! For those of you interested, you can follow our […]
Back to the Greygums.
So there we were. A warmish morning and plenty o’ time on our hands. Nige, Keys, Lucky, Sideways, and Mohawk. Lucky led out and set a brisk but comfortable pace. Sideways is getting excited because his probationary period is up soon but stayed relatively quiet on the trip out to the Greygums just to keep […]
Can it be? Can it really be?
We couldn’t believe our eyes. We rubbed them and we rubbed then but there he was….Johnny!!!! Oh the tears flowed like wine at Macdonalds that morning about 3 weeks ago when many Niges braced themselves for the ride to Broke. “Oh regale us with your stories Killswitch” said Sideways. “Yes tell us of your adventures […]
School Holiday Ride Sep 2012
Write this down somewhwere. We are repeating the abandoned ride that Lucky, Keys and DD attempted some time ago. Refer to the “You Just Can’t Go Past Armidale Ride” in April 2012 for details of that debacle. Soooo having learned from that we will now repeat it although we will try different accomodation. Still staying […]
