A beautiful area of Aus. I lived in Wodonga for 17 years and loved every minute. I would still be there but for "Uncle's" sending all their IT off shore. I still have a 'van at Mitta, the start of arguably the best set of twisties in Australia.
Lovin' your work!

How could you get that stucked .....

That particular path was quicksand. Straight in and down it went instantly. I didn't even try to power out 'cause I knew it would need lifting. The goop nearly topped my boots! Good thing we ride as a team or I'd still be trying to lift it out!

Next lap I found a better way 'round. Thanks Dennis.

Great to see I wasn't the only rider to park in "bike rack creek".   
Great video, Steve.

You  definitely were not the only  one to "park"  there.
 That section caught a few riders

I hope I tie everything up ok

That car is illegal! You're not allowed to have trinkets hanging from the inside rear vision mirror. It obstructs your view.

Mark and I will be staying with friends in Wodonga tonight, then on to Harrow tomorrow. See you at Johnny Park!

We found the Magna at the top of the hill on the access road, being unhitched from the 4WD that had towed it up. I don't know what happened to the Magna after that, but I do know we had an interesting time getting back to the tar...

That was all the towing needed. The Magna, with Mark at the wheel, cruised out without further incident. A further tribute to Mark's extraordinary skills controlling any type of iron horse!

The exit excitement was followed by a very nice Surf 'n' Turf at the Canowindra hotel.  Highly recommended. 8-)

Wanted / WTB - 2.15x18-36 Spoke Rim

« on: June 03, 2016, 07:04:21 am »

I'm looking for a 18" x 2.15" 36 spoke rim to replace the 17" on my '84 TS 250X. Something from the '80's would be great.
I'm in Canberra, so around this area would be good.

Shoot me a message if you've got something useful.

TIA,
Phill
