080712 Kyogle without Steve





















Stephen is away this weekend which leaves the way open for a ride to Kyogle. I understand that the forecast is good for the weekend. I'll send out the ride notice tomorrow.
As the weather beat us last week the proposal is to try again for Kyogle. From all reports so far it looks clear but cold for the ride on Saturday morning. Unfortunately I was beaten before I got out of the drive way with more electrical problems or should I say still unresolved electrical problems. My bike is out of action again for this weekend so someone else will need to lead the group unless I can beg borrow or steal a ride.Meet 7am at the Shell Servo at Calamvale and head out to Beaudesert, then Rathdowney and on to Kyogle via the Lions Road. After brekkie at the Box and Dice we will head home on the Murwillumbah road via Uki, turning off to Tyalgum, Chillingham, and the Numinbah Valley. We should be home around 1pmStay Upright,Regards,Ken
Ride Report: Hi all - well there was a first - Ken on a Triumph (thanks Tim). The ride was spectacular - all the way down the weather looked a bit dodgy! you know the type of day - brisk with perfect skies. Ken, Neal,KimB,Adrian, Andrew,Danny, and Mike. Headed down the Lions and the washouts were very obvious. Lots of bribge damageand detours. Looks like they might spend some money on the raodas though which will be great. Had a lot of other bikers on the road for company. Brekky at the Box and Dice and a great ride back to Uki and the tyalgum run, finishing in with scones at???. Ran back olong the nerang highway with the other millions. Back about 2.00pm. Kim and ken enjoyed the Rugby on the enormous screen at his place - no wonder he never goes to the live games!! Thanks Ken.
