Nothing set in stone yet.

There's plenty of options for a run up over the mountains to somewhere.

There's always Pete's suggestion of heading down to the Coaching Station Inn at Nymboida for lunch.

It's not a bad ride back up to Dorrigo - Tyringham - and down the range again to Nymboida. Just a thought.

If you send me a text or phone me when you are about to leave Gloucester, I'd leave here and it would put us all at Walcha about the same time. 0428 427 627. Gloucester > Walcha 145ks with a stop at the lookout, Gunnedah > Walcha 150ks with a top up at Moonbi, would work out about right.

Very sorry about this one lads but I have a suspected blown head gasket on the fighter. The 1100 has oil in the coolant and coolant in the oil. Its over heated a couple of times and Ive wondered why. I changed the overflow bottle coz it was to small, but even the bigger unit fills. And now I found white slug in the water and after draining the oil there is water in there also.

Im out, no fighter is no fun. Ive also been told I cant not have Friday off from work. Double blow to my AFR fun.
Will have it all fix for NFR though. I just cant win the past few weeks.

Fuck it, i'm out too. After getting the bike back together, the Autronic engine managment has gone haywire. the bloody thing is misfiring all over the place. i had a spot reserved at the pub so if anyone wants it go for it. Taking it to the dyno on sat to try and figure out what the fuck is going on.
