We followed Collector Rd through Currawang, dodging a fallen tree thanks to the flashing lights of the car on the other side of the road telling us to slow down for a hazard. Next hazard - a bunch of cattle in the middle of the road. Luckily, the farmer led us through them in his ute slowly and stealthily.
There was a bit of zig zagging through Goulburn with Garoorigang Rd still closed, but we finally made it to our destination. Poor Mick Riddle looked aghast to be in Maccas carpark, but I soon reassured him that we were off to Grit Café for brunch.
Garry regaled us with tales of his trip to Bali (Bali = BAD), Kim talked about being strip searched at Bali Airport and her experience with road cattle while riding in Vietnam, Chas told us how he ended up in Canberra, and Mick discussed the pros and cons of flying planes vs earthworks …. (note to self: there’s more money in earthworks).
After a warming coffee and a beaut brunch, Garry headed off to visit his mum and the rest of us braved the wind to go home via the Freeway. My wind riding skills are much improved, those wind wiggles are all more experience for me.
Thanks to everyone who came on my maiden ride leading experience, and thanks to Chas for being tail end Charlie.
