Default Nsw/qld 2012

Hi Guys,
We are in the middle of our trip to northern NSW and QLD. Weather is fantastic and riding is even better. I have some good footage that I will be adding to tmrw and editing when I get home. My still camera that records video has performed very well for what it is. I'll post more pics when I get home on the bigger computer. Here's a couple for now.

Hey Montana Matt ( and all other forum members ) don't be scared ... we Aussies might at first appear a bit strange or different but I assure you we're all friendly and would be terribly insulted if you you wanted to come to Australia but didn't. If you think you have the inclination to visit us here, then just ask, and let us be your guides to your itinerary.

If we forum members don't look out for each other then what are we really here for?

Hey Wooferdog - Is that like asking... "Do you guys ever swap wives / girlfriends / ..... for a stretch?"

We Aussies might be strange BUT ........ I think your going a bit far there.

You have definite point there, Naga. It's not a common practice here either, though I've seen it done

Except in Arkansas. You can swap rides with your cousin there

Yeah we swapped rides a couple of times on the trip. I had a crack on a GTR 1400 and my mate that came on his 93 1000F had a crack on my BB. I got back home about an hr ago so I will get some pics up and get some footage edited asap. We did 1850km over the 4 days which was good. Really enjoyed QLD. The riding on either side of our borders is sensational.
