Thanks Mark! (and thanks for blurting it out here on the forum!)
I took the day off work and had some time with the missus @ Mt Glorious/lunch @ the biker's cafe.....nice and quiet, no traffic or boys in blue.
The big event tho' was the skydive

on Saturday, to mark the occasion, followed by lunch at Redcliffe.....good to have some Guzzi Club people and Melbourne motorcycling friends from years ago turning up.
Brought home what a great way to meet some top people we have in motorcycling.
Cheers.....
