It was the hottest weekend this summer. I was hanging to get out on my bike. By about 10am I'd made up my mind. By lunchtime I was packed and ready to go. I headed west and stopped at Mooneba to drink a few litres of water. It was 41 degrees.
I headed up through Willi Willi and onto the Carrai Road.

Looks a top trip - I saw the blue car off the Barrington Tops road (but it didn't have the cones around it) when I was heading west on my BMW650 Dakar on a trip to the Hunter. But that was on the Saturday so we missed each other by a day. I wave to all other bikers - and I'll be looking for yellow Suzukis now! I found your photos on Google Earth and searched for more - they are all great and many are of places I've been but didn't have the talent to photograph so well. Keep up the good work!

It was a good one. Spontaneous rides are often like that. Sounds like I didn't miss you by much then, and I'll be sure to keep an eye out for you in the future. I usually wave myself, but it seems not many people return them these days. Bit of a shame as I like to think bikers are a sort of extended family. I'm pleased you enjoy my photos and I appreciate the good feedback. Makes it all worthwhile. If you feel like joining us for a ride feel free to contact me. I'm usually planning something new. Cheers.
