Beautiful day. SMS tells me that Killswitch in out with ‘a sore ankle’. So much for ‘rain, hail or shine’. In the words of the immortal…. “MAN UP!” You only need one leg to ride a bike. Brizzer and Sideways were up to the task, so we headed off through ‘the Bong”, to Freemans then […]
Not a great start, hardly any sleep. Smoke alarm in room has flat battery so it cheeped every hour, toilet ran constantly, fridge whired and clunked, compressors for pub just outside door and ran ALL night BUT it is a beautiful day for a ride through some of the best country around.
Left my luxurious cabin at Queenscliff and headed to the Sorrento Ferry. Much flasher that the Kangaroo Island Ferry, both ends open so it is a drive on – drive off affair. Also much cheaper with a proper motorcycle price. Was trying to decide which way to head home but after spending tooooo much time […]

Well, even though I turned 100 today, not one rider turned up for my ride, they must have been off on the splitter ride 🙁 Robe to Mount Gambier, still in SA but not for much longer. No beer tonight, dined in luxury at Maccas and now trying to plan the remaining route home while […]
Left KI through Penneshaw Pub to the ferry although it appeared as if everyone else was doing the same thing! There were some really good roads today along the Fleurieu Peninsula. I’m sure they would be in the bible but can’t be bothered looking. Reminds me of when I couldn’t be bothered taking photos of […]
Well, what can I say? Spent the day being driven around the island without really seeing much of anything. For a place that is promoted as nature’s wonderland, it was almost impossible to spot anything that was alive. The enormous koala population was decimated during the 2007 bushfires and I think the other purported critters […]
Beautiful day, cooler down south. Earliest ferry today was 12 noon and so decided to grab a quick haircut before leaving Victor Harbour. That head is just getting worserer and more worserer. Did I mention that it was short 🙂 Found an area in South Australia where they grow something besides wheat and had to […]
Eventually left Fisherman’s Bay after almost being driven out by the heat, did I mention it was hot 🙂 Headed south, just glancing Adelaide and rode down South Road all the way to Cape Jervis where there really isn’t much. A section of the road was particularly pleasant to ride at my usual law sensitive […]
For those members unable to make the other ride heading north, I propose an alternate ride heading south. All riders attending should meet at the Port Broughton Mobil and be ready to depart with full tanks at 8am, rain, hail or heatwave. We hope to take in a bit of a ferry ride and a […]
