Charlie,
If I didnt know better, I'd easily have mistaken you for an Old Testament prophet or perhaps a rabbi of great distinction! ( what is that thing on your forehead??...
For my sins, I was confined to home duties last weekend, but did manage to belt acoss to Bright and over the Tawonga Gap and back down the Kiewa valley Highway to home.. a small compensation for missing the Blue Duck!
Hope to take a 3 day in a couple of weeks time and do the circuit over Hotham and back over the High Plains road..
Wer're pretty lucky having all this in our back yard eh?

So when's the next ride??

Ah, a rabbi of great distinction, I can cope with that. Or an Old Testament prophet. Yep, that too.
Indeed, we are very fortunate to have such roads at our disposal. And it's mostly legal to ride on them as we do.
The thing on me forehead is a head torch. Could be mistaken for something of eastern and/or mystical persuasion.
Take care out there Doug. Look after that licence of yours, or you'll be off the road for a good while.
Oh, and have fun.

Ah, the next ride? Any suggestions? (I did ask earlier.)

Gidday,

Jeff those ears mate would certainly help by gripping the inside of the helmet nicely and assisting in head dress stability when flip flopping through and along those high-country roads at speeds higher than the signposted limit on that RS of yours..

Not much stock Sibbo, but there are the roos!
