campin' at jimna

19th july 08

camped for two nights,1st night was 1.7 deg,second night was .5 deg,bloody cold,after first night we went into town and bought two hot water bottles,which made the second night more bearable. both nights we had a roarin' fire which was great until you moved away from it!

we attended the geo event Are yuo smarter than an immgrant,well ye' pirates scored so low we were deported!whoa hoo! the event was over 40klm through jimna forest tracks which was great!

12 FTP'S

thats right,we managed to go out and get 12 first to plunders!,over the brookwater,bellbird,goodna area.
halfway through we stopped at fisn'n'chip place and had the most disgusting piece of fish ever!,it seemed like it was yestrerdays cooked fish that was re'deepfried,i did'nt eat mine,ye' galley wench ate hers and thought it was good!

first ride on new strom

left in the cold on a ride out towards toowoomba this morning on the new suzuki vstrom,felt warm and toasty thanks to the excellent dri rider jacket.

the bike ate up the miles quickly and in comfort,with what looks to be great fuel compsumtion.

the new oxford humpback tank bag worked really well with the magnets holding it in place,had concerns with it because of the shape of the stroms fairing but all was well.

The strom was a joy to ride and it looks like we are going to get along together fine

aaarrrgh!

welcome,dont know what to say?,dont know why your reading this shite,but hope to make it better has i go along,hope to use this as a sort of travel and adventure sort of diary!,so ye' kids and friends can keep up to speed where and what ye' pirates are up to!
