Haigslea Motorcycle Museum - Nobby Pub Ride. SEQ members

Hi all, Anyone interested in doing a run to the Haigslea Motorcycle Museum, then on to the Historic Nobby Pub on the outskirts of Toowoomba. If so, I plan on doing it on Sunday 8th September, and seeing as I live local I can meet you at BP Blacksoil around 9.00am and go to the museum from there.

Opening hours are 9.30am - 4.00pm, so if we get there opening time, spend an hour or so looking, should make it to Nobby around lunchtime. Bring an appetite cause they are large meals.

I plan on going through Gatton then up the Gatton - Clifton Rd to Nobby, and return home down through Cunninghams Gap, but depending on where you live you might choose to take a different way home.

Let me know if your interested and I can start making arrangements.

                                                          Thanks Tony.

Mate, that`s something I wouldn`t miss. Will definateley be there, rain or shine.   :good2:
Friends tell me it`s the best fifteen bucks you`ll ever spend, the Coffee is free and there`s over 200 bikes dating from 1905.
Until I googled it I didn`t realise Nobby was Rudd`s Pub - The home of "Dad & Dave" ...I`ve often wondered what happened ta Mabel...is she still in Snake gully? http://www.ruddspub.com.au/history.html. Spring will be in tha air and a ride through the Somerset twisties should clear out any redbacks, me thinks!...Looking forward to catching up with you guys  :drinks:

Megsy, I know a bloke with a few from down Tamworth way - he may be able to lend them one......lol

Nice score on the Kwaka mate.

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

Yep, will be there. The ride from Gatton through to Clifton/Nobby via Ma Ma Creek is fantastic. My brother just moved to Clifton, and is wanting to get back into bikes so I think he would like to meet us for lunch as well at Nobby.   Coming back through Aratula is good, I then shoot through Kalbar/Peak Crossing to Yamanto ---> Springfield. Thats an interesting ride to Peak Crossing, hills/plains, very scenic.

Bring on the 8th!

hi tony, im still 70 % sure i'll be there tomorrow  ,, i intentionally didnt buy any beer today because i want to catch up , so i thought the 8 VB;s already in the fridge  would be enough for me,,,, anyway when i started to get nearer to#8 i discovered 2 x 40 oz bottles of jim beam(from wifeys  P& O cruise)and a carton of pepsi max in the fridge  and on top of it my wife and kids are at the inlaws for the night so im home alone, (rare),,   mate im not sure if i can control my drinking tonight, if im not there by 9 at the servo  then im nothing but a drunkard.
kind regards ken ..
