Bloody great Mal!

I forgot to add, no affiliation with the pub except twenty years of grand hospitality from them, and a few clips over the ear from Maija. :P

Ah, thanks Jeff. I'll be there for Saturday night and Sunday morning feeds too.
Big rain predicted for tomorrow and more on Thursday, but sunny Friday and Saturday. Now predicting a shower or two for Sunday.

And yes Doug, your RS is just a pup, but invited nevertheless.
The young pups have to know how to act when they grow up to be ol' dawgs.

Great stuff Jeff. Sounds fantastic...dinner and brekky for me please. Does he do complimentary drinks on arrival if we promise to leave feeling like an ol' Triumph? And I was just about to go out and buy a few chook bits to make and freeze a curry for the campfire. I'm glad I dropped in here first.
Cheers, Steve

There will be complimentary drinks coming at ya from all directions Steve I'm sure!
Roger the affirmative on the tucker.

Edit, didn't see your reply Charlie. I'll add you to the menu. Woops, you know what I mean :mrgreen:

Looking good!
I suspect the river will be as high as in Jeff's pics, considering the predicted rain for up thataway over the next couple of days.
Sign me up for dinner & brekie too... will save on the load. I'll be buying me xxxx from the pub too, but I'll prolly bring along a bottle a red for 'afters'.
Have fun on the ride down Mal - should be good if you manage to skirt the downpours.
I went on a 'shakedown' ride today to Ballarat and back, also needed to get a camp chair and new RS key cut. All was as it should be, following installation of new regulator, throttle cam & cover & grips, and gear linkage.
We're ready to roll!

Righty o chaps!

I suspect Maija will do a cook up for all of us (Alf and Maija included) as opposed to individual menu.......
That's sorta whats happened in the past anywayz. However I'm sure everyone will be catered for.

Charlie and Pete, you guys still going up Friday?

Yep, my intention, and Pete's too, last time we spoke. Not sure if we can meet up yet for the ride, but we'll keep in touch.

Hey, I'm wondering if Maija's enthusiasm can be engaged to make up a birthday cake with 30 candles? That would certainly be easier than carrying one up on a bike, or trying to make one on site. Jeff, could you check out that as a pissabolity? I'm sure we'll all be happy to chip in for a cake.

Hans has indicated he could do with a good ride - he'll prolly come up on Saturday, gods willing.

Forecasting between 45-90mm here today in Albury.

Fair chance the river/campsite will flood. No matter, we can camp behind the pub.

Ask Maija for a cake........not sure if that would result in another clip over the ears! :P
