Mate, I'd fucking love but I work weekends.
I could well be a goer on that fizzer. Was thinking about heading up to Jock's about that time.
We can compare FJ to FZ OK? What size you running? I think the 750 would disappear on me in the twisties atm. :D
PS where is RoadWarriors Cafe?
Just read the other post 87'. What's this about an SV? Do we have to make you ride with Fimp?
What about a Canberra ride? We've only got a few decent weekends left before the big freeze hits? (I promise I won't go making any fat jokes.............maybe)
meant to hit tomorrow from the looks of things. I thought I read somewhere that you aren't on a bike at the moment FattyQuote:

always keen 4 a ride,i havnt been ova here very long,went 4 a look out at tha cotter yesterday by meself sum good bends out there.i ride 2 work every day so tha weather dosnt bother me 2 much.
where are you at??
just ova tha border at jerrabomberra.what about urself?any other spots round here good 4 a blat?
I'm Northside guys, next to Olims Hotel in Civic. (Off streeet parking for bikes etc)
And yeah I've got an FJ11 on the road atm, just gathering bits for the fighter conversion (I wouldn't take the comments of other members too seriously, some think they actually 'know' more than they obviously do).
The Cotters a great rd, but it has become too popular in recent years. Back in the good old days Cotter Rd was the local biker fang road, even had a very nice pub by the Cotter Dam, unfortunately Stanhope burnt it down in the Fires.
Have you been out to Captains Flat yet? Not a bad road for bikes, and the local cafe does a top breakfast on a Sunday morn. I've also beeen thinking of checking out the road to Binalong for a new route.
I'm in Gordon. I'm still finding good rides myself. I've only had my bike for about a month and its been 4 years before that.
Up to Corin Dam is a fun twisty road, its only 10 mins from my place too :) (off the Cotter rd near tidbinbilla) just watch for gravelly corners and fools driving down the middle of the road. It'll start to get icy and snowy up the top soon tho.
from Q'beyan--> Sutton rd to Notron rd to bungendore-->kings hwy back to Q'beyan should be a nice ride too. Norton rd is nice and twisty. Lot o roos and gets a bit of snow tho.

YOu're not in kanangra are ya?
Was my bike stolen 5 minutes after I bought it? Do I wander around witha needle in my arm? Nah, not in Kanangra.
I'm in Batman Ave (The Olims Side of Ainslie Ave). Does that make me a super hero??????????????????????????? or more a butler?
whats olims like for a drink. Never got into the place.
It's not bad, only drunk there once meself since I've been here. Has a decent garden bar, and is more pub like than most places around Canberra. Looks like it's good for a decent feed.
I've know a few people who worked there and that kept me away from the place. That was quite a few years back though.
hows tha servo at eaglehawk sound for a meetin place fatgit?what time u reckon? whereis says 31/2 hours to berowra(u know that servo?)thats if i can keep up with ya:D
what, the bp at Berowra just after the funny intersection where people write themselves off all the time.?
Nah the Mobil ;)Quote:

Going NTH on the left?
3 1/2 hrs would get us to Woy Woy mate :D
I reckon more like 2 1/2 - 3. Are we gonna run straight through, or play on some nice roads on the way?
open to suggestions mate,ud probly know ur way round here alot beta than me.u know tha servo where the boys wanna meet at?also what sorta range ya get?the spewzuki gets thirsty when it cops a floggin.
What about up the highway (Casual speed), right at Kangaroo Valley down to the coast about Narooma(fang the fecker), and up through Woollongong (casual speed). We can check out that highway that runs out over the sea, I haven't ridden it yet, and wouldn't mind.
There is also heading straight down to Bateman's Bay then up to Wollongong. Will take longer though.
OR Straight up highway, Left before Sydney and hit the Putty Rd. Have any of you guys done the Putty before? We should try to get it in for those who haven't, either on the way there or on the way back.
Range ain't an issue, kinda, I've got a 24.5 ltr tank, so my only issue is waiting for the guys with smaller tanks to refill. :D
I know the servo roughly, getting to it won't be an issue, it's on the main route from Sydney to Newie.
Is there a ride organised for after we meet up with Jim? The meet point is only 50 k's from Woy Woy.
I take it there's just the 3 of us going?
The road from ACT to bateman's bay is fucking awesome tho! Even from the bay to the gong has some niceties! Comes right past my place too!...Handy if I had my fucking bike!
As long as the road isn't full of 4-wheel driving, brain dead, bimbo public servants going away for the weekend, then it's a shit road.
If we come that way maybe we'll catch up for a cuppa or summat.
Its been pretty good every time ive dun it! Yeh sup to u! If ur coming thru post it up, It'd be cool to catch up with u lads!
Fuck I wish I was going but like I said before. I work 3 weekends outta every 4 and I gots a cranky 7month old daughter at home. Trips away are out of the question for a little while at the moment.
I'm up for a local morning blat tho.
Im sure something could be arranged mate!
havnt done tha putty but heard heaps about it,maybe we could go up that way and come back down the coast way,who else beside u an me is coming?
This week end is Bike fest in Canberra , And i am pulling the Extrem creation from the shed and hitting the streets to the gig and then a ride to Captins flat and back if any of you guys that are staying around here for the week end want to come we will be at the driver training center from 12 pm and hang out and then head off //////
What's this bikefest Jaytee? Not some MRA bullshit is it? I'll be up for a run to Captains Flat, spent a month out there recently.
It is just a test day for new riders and satuff at the triver training center and some stunt bike riding and some give aways and stuff .
Yeah, might drop by, look for a grumpy 'Cruiser' looking kind of guy. Just don't look fast do I Turbo? :D (still wearing the fingerless and the headkickers)
I was thinking of getting a few mates together and coming out (wanted to see the stunting) but I is fucking working.......
What do you do Lucas?
I finish my current contract in a week and a half, maybe we can organise a weekday ride?
I work for disability ACT.I was a carer until about a month ago. Now I'm organising shifts, rosters, agency staff etc.I usually work Sat through to Wed 1200-2030.
Been there done that Lucas, ask some older people about Bruce Hostel.
Yeah, I heard all about that place. I started 5 yr back so Bruce was a few years gone by then.
What do you do with yourself?
I'm in IT these days, data migration/modelling/reporting , did my degree while working at Bruce and a couple of the group houses.
I had a ball in that job, but 10 years was enough.
