    Had an awesome weekends riding thanks guys.
    On a side not I was on my way home and was just passing the Ingleburn turn off on the M7 when a Mitsubishi Triton wouldn't move from the right lane so I changed into the far left lane (3 lanes) and took both cars at once. well the Triton started to speed up with me so I thought it was "on" with a smart arse driver, took me up to about 160 - 180 when the "red and Blues" started to flash in the windscreen of the Trition. All I could think was "fuck there go's my licence for a year or more". when he walked up he asked "why the speed mate?" I then explained that i thought he was just some smart arse trying to take me on! then I gave him my Licence, once he saw where I was from and how far I had left to go he just said "I know how easy it is to get up to those speeds but please take it easy from now on huh?" and with that gave me back my licence and walked off!

    Don't feel so bad that I forgot my camera now. Cheers guys.

    Got no photos to share but had a great weekend. Cheers to everyone that made the effort to get there (and especially Terry for the first night accommodation and hospitality).

    Have to admit, that was one of my favourite AFRs - no pressure, no bullshit, just a ride with the boys for the weekend in perfect weather. What more could a bloke ask for?

    Oh, and Puppet, if for some mad reason you actually read this, sorry for pissing off without saying goodbye, I thought you were coming to Grafton with us. Finish off a packet of "Four Day Sword" and you'll get over it.

    ....and that was the best "I can't make it this year" effort by Craig (sorry, I mean The Cowboy), nice one mate.

    Cow! what Cow?
    Was great to meet everyone, had a ball. l'll try even harder to not make it for two nights next time. lt's a real credit to everyone to ride like that through the hills and not have any problems, touch wood. l know you guys ride hard all the time, but there are a lot of dickheads out there, but not at AFR.

    When we left he was pouring the oil in right? Well, when we had all totally fucked off he started his bike again to see if the oil light had gone off. It had, but instead he had some mechanical banging noise that was getting louder. Before he knew it that bolt you see shot out of the casing and did that, rendering the bike useless. Apparently he has heard of it happening before but it's very rare. Rexie had to pick him up and drive him back to Bellingen.
