Well, X27 & i joined the SCDOC for a bloody big ride yesterday...
We left Macca's at Albion Park about 8:30, and headed up Macquarie Pass, Robertson, then across through Fitzroy Falls and cut down through Bundanoon, and onto Marulan...

A 20 minute fuel /food/coffee stop, and we headed off again down through Bungonia into the outskirts of Goulburn, and then cutoff towards Braidwood.. a pretty quick run across to Braidwood, (1 highway patrol, which we were warned about..)

We stopped at Braidwood for 5 minutes to re group, and then off for another fast run down the mountain (x's fuel light came on as we started to come down the mountain) to Nelligen Pub for lunch, where there were about 20 guys n gals from the South Coast..

We then stopped for about an hour (X had to go get fuel) for lunch, and then headed off again... down to Batemans Bay, then north towards Nowra, for another fast run up the coast, a quick top up just north of Batemans and off again... we then ended up at Jamberoo Pub, about 5pm... quick stop and more fuel in Albion Park, we all parted company (think there were 5 of us left by then) and i started the run home in the dark... back home about 6:30, exhausted... all in all, a fantastic day, great roads, and great company! Thanks Guys... X27, good to meet you, catch up again soon...

Baaaah! Bunch of pussies! In my day we used to pedal our bikes 700km before breakfast!!!

Seriously, that is a lot of K's to do in a day. I know after about 300km my body is telling me to 'GET OFF THE BIKE NOW"

Sounds like a great ride. I've always wanted to hit the twisties down under. It's a long way for me to trailer the scooter though :thumbup

It was good (fun) meeting you Ozducati and riding as well, hope you got home all right? I stripped part of my bike this arvo, since Ive got the first service overdue (lol) Im putting the rest of the 70mm system on before I book it in.
i hope we have more members for the next club ride, I think its special to see and hear all them Ducs thundering along........allthough I could bearly hear my own bike through the wind noise at a ton:lol.
