KEVINGTON MAY 2010

The weather was that good that I set off on the run with just a "t" shirt, jeans and a pair of thongs. Snug and warm watching these mad mates on bikes rumbling thru town and then pouring the power on down the highway made me wish my bike was going instead of being the "mule" carrying their packs in the car. With the group growing to 12 we made our first stop at Glenrowan.From there we headed south, winding our way thru the hills to the "TolmieTavern" where I had the priviledge of paying $15 for a hamburger, whinging about the cost until this tower of a burger arrived with a foot long skewer stuck thru it to hold it from falling over...great meal. Later that day we settled in at Kevington pub for a fun night, lots of laughs, music, bullshit, great food, pool and fun. Very different the next morning when it showed just who had partyed beyond their limits. Some were jolly, some were a bit doughy,some were very sick and one put on his little girls dress and made a line for home, were she slept for 5 hours on the couch. Every one else made it home safe, ending a great ride and a fun weekend. Thankyou all Bird

WALWA APRIL 17/18 2010

Yeah.. Walwa again, same old roads, same old pub, same old stories, same old lies, same dirty words, same blokes went, no one enjoyed themselves, no fun was had, no idea why we have been going there for 8 years........ Well that's what i tell other bike groups who ask.... but we know different.. ay? Bird

APRIL 4th SUNDAY RIDE

Ok i will take the blame for not realising this weekend is easter sunday, so this ride not happening.

MARCH 20/21 OVER NIGHT STAY AT EILDON

The ride was planned to go thru the "Black Saturday Bushfire" areas on some of the best riding roads in Victoria, and so it did, and they are, even though a bit of the planned ride was deleted at the last moment due to some smart arse telling Bird that a section of road was sealed all the way thru but it wasn't so we went thru the "Black Spur " instead. Everything at the motel was more than satisfactory and the nights entertainment was a pool comp and bullshit session.... normal. Next day we were off to the Alexander Bike show then on to Euroa and final drinks and goodbyes at Toolamba. The usual crew went Bird,Webby,Grover,Stix,Eric and Gundy. I think Webby won the pool comp, the rolling dice $50 and the snorring award as well.

FITZY'S MEMORIAL FEB 27TH 2010

For those who went the start of the day was interesting with weather reports ranging from flooded roads and creek crossings thru to sun shine all day. Yes we did have some rain for about 10k's just before Euroa but the rest of the ride was no problem at all. Bird, Grover,Eric, The Webbs, Dave and Jen all had a very good day out with The Webbs winning the "Rolling Run" down Merton Gap a good lunch at Yea, a couple of pub stops ,a stop to pay tribute to Fitzy at the site of his accident then to the Toolamba pub for final drinks and good byes, all in all a good relaxing day

ENSAY RIDE 23...24..JAN...2010

This is the first time we have been to "The Little River Hotel" at Ensay, but I for one am absoulutely sure that it won't be our last trip there. A very good turn up of 12 riders, some familiar faces, some new. Bird brought two guests, brother Tom from Ballarat and big John Baker from Strathmerton. Finny brought two of his mates, "Bilge" and Mick Elliot, all seemed to have a good time and got on with all. Grover, Gilly, Gundy, Webby, Eric and Bourkie made up the rest. The "Fine Master" had a bit of work to do and collected from all the sinners just before we left on Sunday morning, and his little bag was a fair bit heavier after that. All in all, the ride there and back was very good , the pub and the owners were just fantastic, the meals and the cooked breakfast exceptional and the people who went......well all wanna go again.... so they must have been ok too. All 12 riders back safe so another bonus...well maybe one with battle scars, but rode home anyway, that's the important part. Thanks to all who helped on the ride . Bird

XMAS BREAK 2009

Well everyone, Xmas is just around the corner and with the festive season well and truly upon us it has been decided to give the riding a break for a while. Most of us have friends to catch up with, bbq's to go to and work breakup's etc, so we will leave the ride's until after the new year. I would like to wish everyone the very best of all things for this Xmas, and may 2010 be kind to you and your families. Keep safe ..... be kind. Bird and Sue
