   Have to agree with Tony, what a great weekend! Thanks Troy for your hospitality and your great venue for the weekend. Thanks also for organising the dyno runs, a most enlightening and entertaining morning. Thanks to Alf, Tony, Jools, Richard, Noel, Phil, Alan and Johno, all great company, making it a truly memorable weekend.
Regards, Pete.  :drinks:

Mark, I'm sure Troy will get around to posting the dyno sheets but at the moment he's probably still getting over having a house and yard full of story telling, beer swilling FJ nuts cramping his style. I would say he is too busy making up for lost time with his family who were tossed out of their family home for the weekend. Thanks again Troy!

Hope all you'se guys going North to get home made it safe and sound.
Seems there was a bit of wild weather (Wind, Rain, Hail, mini-twisters) that hit Northern NSW and SE Qld on Sunday.
Not the best of riding weather :-/

He's probably been trying to explain the number of empties everywhere..............

Yes a fantastic weekend and it was great to put some faces to forum names at last. Many thanks for Troy for letting us in to his home and massive sheds.

I'm sure the excuses will come out once the results from the dyno are posted  :crazy:

Looking at the weather forecast yesterday I took the coastal route and national park, which was just a bit drizzly. The look of those clouds over the interior did not inspire me to go that way.

Forgot to say farewell to Alf so if he's on here sorry buddy for the quick escape  :biggrin: Hopefully take you up on the Bermagui offer for the Rally next year, provided I get those valve stem seals changed.

Apologies for the smoke screen in the dyno room  :biggrin:
Still thinking of something..................

G'day Jools, Alf's not a member on here so I'll pass on your apologies. That offer for an overnight stay also extends to others heading south to the Rally. Between Alf and myself, we can probably put up 5 or 6 riders overnight. We will be leaving on the Thursday before the Rally, heading to Corryong via the Snowy Mountains. You are welcome to join us for the ride south. I promise that we will only ride on the least straight roads available.
   Thanks for your company over the weekend Jools, it was a pleasure meeting you. (except for the smoke)
Regards, Pete.

Jools. Yours seems to be lacking a bit. Hope you get it sorted.  Good to see the 1100's holding their own.
