I will supply all the hot coffee and beverages (non alcoholic) required. No more booze for me due to the new black dog repellent I'm on. I have no objection to anybody bringing their own re-hydration fluids with them but remember you do have to ride home.

What time should I be in Warwick? If you are going straight to Rick's I can just wait at the intersection of the highway. If you want fuel or coffee, we can meet somewhere.

a good trip was had  some pics of the ride today 

which started off on a particularly mild day for around these parts  , quite strange indeed ..
day trip to stanthorpe 2018-010

after meeting Matt at Goodna on his gs , off up the road to find Andrew , who turned up dead on time

of corse the stretch up the hill was tempered by many vehicles heading off for a long weekend  up here , but glorious weather to be out and about with mates on bikes
 

but objective achieved and found Woody at Warwick with his k75

day trip to stanthorpe 2018-011

day trip to stanthorpe 2018-013



then off up the hills further and found Ricks place , out along the road  and good to see Rick and Margaret again

day trip to stanthorpe 20180512

after a warm welcome , scones , strawberry jam and coffee was our reward


day trip to stanthorpe 20180511

not long after a stranger from the southern regions appeared  young seani , with the hillbillys (dogs ) in tow , in the sidecar

day trip to stanthorpe 20180513

after a bit of banter and reminiscing over a good tea cake and drinks  we posed for the group shot  to send back to the endurance legends folks in "blighty " next weekend , just a small contribution to the international camaraderie that we share amongst us on k bikes .

day trip to stanthorpe 20180514

 so that's "saxon 7 , Woody , Pegasus , Mathew in Brisbane  and RickG ... of corse "Bella " the long time companion - riding partner of seanii sitting in the shot ..(couldn't find seamus the dog  at this time )

seani obliged and got me in a pic as well,  thanks mate .

day trip to stanthorpe 31898710

a pretty uneventful trip back down the hill with woody dropping off at warwick again , Andrew doing some exploring back up around Stanthorpe  maty and myself heading back down the gap in the hills

a sweet 500 + odd kilometers there and back , and back before dark ...win

great to meet some new faces and to reacquaint with good mates
the Tshirt sent by Frank Miles and Ben Kingham with many great thanks and appreciation


many thanks to all that could male it and rick and marg for putting up with us

Bella really has become an accomplished photo bomber! day trip to stanthorpe 8157 
Was good to have a catch up with people and meet some new ( to me) faces.
It was a good ride along the top of the tablelands and back, some of my favourite riding country as far as scenery is concerned.
Thanks to Rick and Margaret for their hospitality again!
