The wife and I are heading out for a lazy 3 week ride heading south so sorry we will not be at the whore house.

When do you head off on your 3 week adventure?

I'm planning on getting there around 8.00/8.30am Ken. I'm coming up the highway so could meet you somewhere if you want.

Yes... 8-8:30 meet at The Mapleton View Café for some Breakfast. Then we ride!!

G'Day Bones,  remember the big BP servo with all the junk food shops just before Burpengary that we meet last year on the way way to Doug's?

That would be a good place, just name time and i'll see you there.

Mmmm, BP junk food, yummo.  But it would be better not to buy rubbish at the BP and have something nice on the cafe deck at Mapleton,  :good2:
I can only stay the one night, (pushing for that even at this stage) so I'll meet you guys at the servo Sat morn as well.

Ken, Ray, can meet you at the servo around 7ish, I plan to leave home about 6.00 and it takes around 1 hr or so to get there. Slight change of plans my end, Chris is still coming up with me on the bike and having breakky, but then she's meeting up with the daughter and going to spend the day with her shopping.

FJZ1 1200 - It'll do me just fine.
Timing has much to do with the success of a rain dance.

Nothing like turning dreams into reality by putting a date on it. ( Wise words from one of the fold)
I wonder if the General will make an appearance ? :scratch_one-s_head:

Almost got it dash...."Tha difference between a dream and a goal, is a date!"
....and Yep, wouldn`t miss it for quids. I reckon it`s one of the best rides in Oz.(seriously!). 

When combined with this laid back bunch of blokes, tha laziest brekky and sensational views it`s gotta be the best chill pill on planet Earth!!
Slippery Steve tells me he`s coming too!...Well worth the delightful cruise up from the Gold Coast esp if you`re a newbie or an oldie with a different brand of steed!

I`m hoping ta make the campfire following a little sojourn here! http://www.mapletontavern.com.au/

Hey Harv/Darran are ya gunna drop down thru that winding canopy of forrest than back up tha plateau ta stretch them gears before those long twisties and the trick leftie that put a few on the wrong side of yellow?  (Heehehe)

No Bike mobility, anyone? No worries, I can pick you up from any of tha the Railway Stations at the bottom of the mountains.....but you`ll need a really well fitted, muffled helmet to protect my ears!  :drinks:
`93 with downside up forks.
`78 XS11/1200 with a bit on the side.

Ok Ken, I hope you and that steed of yours like comers, cos there's quite a few in them thar hills. You'll be like that shiela in the exorcist, you'll be twisting your head that much.  :biggrin:

After lengthy discussions with the committee.
We have a ride route.
Slight change from last year ( We thought we needed a few more sweepers and twisties)
