G'day

Things have been a bit slow on the forum so I'll put up a few photos for your delectation.

The first is a club member proving that you can make your motorcycle wider to increase your on-road presence:

The next, from the 2014 BMW GS Safari in Tassie. A club member discussing the finer points of Quantum Physics with Mad Jack McMad of the clan McMad, the winner of last year's "Mr. Madman".
I believe the stuff in the brown bottles aids language translation:

Image


Again GS Safari; FOR SALE - One careful owner, and one that didn't give a sh*t. Or, how many GS owners does it take to change a
headlight globe (Spacey):

Image


Safari again, proving some riders are better than others:

And here's a couple of the "others" - SAND! Nooooooooo!:

Image


I'll put some more up later.

A few more . . . .

This gives you an idea of the first day's terrain. Most of it was considerably more up and down though:

Image



Again, some riders are better than others. Note the lack of barriers on The Devil's Elbow, and the angle of descent if it goes pear-shaped:

Image



Yet another "other" caught out by the nasty sand:

Image



The Star of the Show - No, not the rider or the bike, the scenery:

Image


Thankfully, there wasn't a lot of this, but splashing in puddles can be fun, unless you find the 4x4 wheel ruts:

More tomorrow . . . .

I notice when viewing these photos on a phone or tablet they are clipped on the right hand side. Anyone tell me why? They appear fine on a PC.
