Saturday 25th July
Meet at Canungra
Coffee Shop next to Neds bike accessories.
9.00 am depart at 9.30 am
for a tour around the Hinterland and Northern NSW.
I'll sort out a couple of different tracks depending on
the weather.
I usually set my rides by the radar charts for the past 12 hours
so we can ride some dry twisty bits .
Lunch will be at a pub somewhere.
If you plan on turning up PM me and I'll give you my mobile number.
Should make a change from being the only Guzzi :itl_flag: lurking through the hinterland.

later swagzz

Yes, I'll have to pay that....it was a great day out on some amazing (and often demanding) roads.
Best bit was comparative lack of 4-wheeled tin things holding us up, being a Saturday.
Good company, equally good lunch spot, 2 wheels and twisty roads......what more could a person ask for (thinks: don't go there please).
It was one of those rides where I arrived home and felt satisfied at having enjoyed a safe, fun day out.....got the adrenaline pumping, but relaxed and satisfied as well!
Great to feel alive.

Always nice to have some non-Guzzi bikes along......the Trumpy was pretty impressive....pity it has a chain!

Will be interesting to see how this "Stray Rides" thing develops........we could end up with a club within a club, just from the Forum.

Next thing should be the Toowomba guys organising something....we've been talking about it forever, and it just hasn't happened.

Thanks again swagzz :bravo: :moped: :guzzi:
