    ok. 1'st weekend of July, I have a wedding on one of the days, so will propose the other.. NFI which day it's planned for, can't remember. Once I remember which day I'm free I'll update the first post.

    PS Coxy. don't lose ya license in that week I like the country roads as there is minimal traffic, plus these roads have quite silly high speed limits (like 80 and 100km/h) on them which you don't need to do to enjoy yourself and be safe.

    I'd assume this road has been affected by the current floods / weather?? Landslides / extra potholes??

    I was keen to go for a scout this weekend, but if it's going to be flooded / hammered.....

    Yeah I was thinking the same thing.
    With my ride height I was hoping to check it out at a most likely much slower pace so I can be sure that I will do minimal damage. But yeah for at least part of the road will have taken a beating.

    Hahaha... I love tradies paying out on the apprentices. Always good for a laugh. I imagine nothing's gotta be more embarrassing then catching public transport in high vis. Actually I always have a good laugh when I see someone in them riding a bike at 5am in the morning on a main road with their little esky. That's gotta be more embarrassing.
