Never regret your choices in life ! There is no way to go back to do it again and compare. Make the most and do your best with every decision you make

You want catch me in the bar
You want catch me in a car
Never on a bike
Not even on a trike
You want catch me in the night
You would have to catch a flight
So ride and ride you might
But I will be out of sight.

Great Vids Kev!
Thanks for sharing. :good2:
Man there were some serious twistys on that rally ride.
No wonder the Tuna lost her strips ...and other bits :rofl:
After watching that I'm off to get some new suspension for my office chair... :bye2:

OH.......POEMS YOU WANT NOW...? OK......here's one for you.....




You want to know, what makes me go
At morning, noon and night
From cars and bikes the drums and mic's
it's a fire burning bright

but deep inside, what makes me glide
throughout my daily plight
are the things I see, and the love from thee
that inspires me to write

so lead me on, til mornings dawn
til darkness turns to light
and friends we'll be, for eternity
once heavens gate's in sight

so until then, my FJ friend
we'll lean them left and right
and follow on, the road beyond
to catch the winded flight


:drinks:

Wow, sensational stuff Kev.
I meant ta tell you, mounting of the Go Pro is better at the bottom of the screen due to vibrations, (and also the Tuna had a broken wing years ago that was a little dodgy when kinda fixed).
I expected you to have more sliding earlier, given the road conditions. That awfully stiff suspension didn`t help either.
It`s a vid with back up pics, worthy of the new legendary ride of The Snowy Mountains me thinks.  :drinks:

Doug, there was virtually no gravel left on the road for Kev as I had previously cleared it off. He must have found one of the rare places that I hadn't swept properly. Being up front and pioneering was fairly exciting at times.   Pete.    :wacko2:

Hey Flips.....thanks bro....I am sorry we didn't get to spend much time together........but I am planning to return again....maybe as soon as January....only instead of being a 30 day tourist, I was thinking to come and work there for the winter and spend my weekends "Going out for a Rip"...I do hope to meet up with you again.......I miss being there.....  :cray:. I am happy you like the poem....it is the first one I ever wrote...... :blush: ........ I never realized how popular Poems are Down Under....... but alas...they are...Doug always writes a beauty....and Rich.....well.......his was pretty nice too....... :mocking: .... but words and rhythm and motion are ....to me......are the ballet's of life !!! Keep shining Jeffy.....your friend always....

I know I am getting to this party late --- looks like an awesome time and great video ---La Villa Strangiato  nice touch -- you had me a Rush.   I almost thoughts all of the roads in Aussie land look like they were one-way...... but surprise.  It must have been tough to keep saying to yourself --- keep it left -- keep it left....

thanks for posting --

Why was the 84 singled out --- ?  Front and Center..... guess it started the whole Kookaloo
