Half Putty
Wise Dave (DD) and Nige braved dubious weather and traversed the roads to the halfway house on Putty Road, had lunch and headed home via Wollombi. One bike even kept going the whole way 🙂
DD wishing HE had ridden the Blackbird.
Well fellow NIGE riders, time for us all to hit the road.
DD with the calm before the storm.
Nige abiding by the ‘No Smile Policy’
DD sending smoke signals to Mohawk for help.
Becoming a familiar sight, BMW’s broken down by the side of the road 🙂
The faithful and reliable steed awaits while trying not to be gassed 🙂
The tarmac tries to swallow the bike.
Scrounger’s Newish Newer than before New Ride
Those members who put their money on 4 months look to have taken the loot.
Fiat goooone - hello new Bimmer!
V8 Sprint Car Rides
I know these 2 photos are not motorcycle based but shit it was fun:-)
Nige ready for his blast.
Scoot ready for his blast.
Another One Bites the Dust
UPDATE: The ‘Scoot’ has been written off and Scoot is on crutches (but still looking for a replacement ride!)
One sunny day, Scoot went for a ride and followed a Blackbird into the bushes.
The black line begins the story!
Area 51?
Nuh! Just Scoot's landing area.
After the ship had been righted.
Spare bits fit under the seat ;-(
Scrapes and bangs along the left side.
Return to Mudgee – Brizzer’s Perspective
Mudgee via Denman. Home via Lithgow and Sackville and Wiseman’s Ferries.
Like Scrounger I started the ride solo but only as far as Wollombi. Rare to be the only bike there.
Ready to go!
First stop Denman. Small but delicious $10 steak for lunch.
Nige is demonstrating his new “no smile” policy for photographs.
Capertee Valley which I believe is the second largest enclosed valley in the world after The Grand Canyon.
Nige not smiling.
Nige proving that you can try too hard not to smile
and Scrounger showing that he doesn’t give a rat’s razoo about the “no smile” policy.
Return to Mudgee – Scrounger’s Perspective
The Annual ‘Return to Mudgee’ run was held October 9/10/11th with a small turn-out of regular riders plus a welcome to new member ‘Cruise’. Again, in the true spirit of ‘Nige’ – Scrounger went solo for first day and a half and successfully experimented with the camping option.
