  Another Adventure bike style  ride was held at very short notice on Monday 5th.
The plan was for myself to go to McKillops bridge via Omeo and
the Limestone Road etc. The riders leaving from Marlo would go
via the Bonang Rd to the bridge where we would meet and then go
back via Buchan and have lunch there.

Lovely morning----total kms for me, 375.


Glorious, and the views not bad either!

It was good riding and I was to arrive at the bridge about 1030am

But it took a while longer than thought and I arrived at 11.30 but they
weren't there either. So waited a while, heard bikes, got camera, it
wasn't them. Next bike at about 11.50, was Mark (Caponord)


But not the other two, a rally Mini was next along with the message that a
flat tyre had happened and they were just 500 metres up the track.

It was Don on the Ducati, these tubeless tyre plugs work well and
within 20mins all was well.


And so we did the bridge tourist thing, underneath as well
and the clever camera timer shot didnt work too well
but from left its, Mark, Robert, Don and Graeme.

So onward and in this case upward, that is a mean piece of rock that
hangs aver the road and we continued to the Little River gorge.
Temperature was 37C as we climbed.
Magnificent view and Mark is probably one of the very few who has
flown under the bridge and up this gorge (with guess who).









Robert who was on his BMW for the last ride was this time on Marks
wife Alice's Aprillia Pegasa. This is a 650 that goes and handles really well.


So onwards again to Buchan and home, thanks guys that was a
fantastic day / ride.
