It's been a long, long time...April 2002, the "6-peaks #2", Vic High Country + Snowies.

And it was a hell of a trip :) Plenty of laughs at Charlotte's Pass, Mt. Kosciusko in the background.
Some of the crew are still around, others are riding the Milky Way, some we've lost contact with, or they just "faded away"....
This was the "fuzzy" period between the old Ausmoto, Netrider and Austouring eras.
 
A tender moment amongst the falling leaves in Powelltown this afternoon.

Townsville is in what is called the dry tropics, the locals call it Brownsville. If we get a wet season then for a few weeks it rains buckets and things go mouldy and aluminium cases can grow fur as do leather gloves and boots, but it's been dry since 2010 for the most part. Winter is upon us so our mornings drop to 10degrees and the days peak at about 26. Perfect weather for riding. But there is a severe lack of corners. Our closest windy roads are up in the Tablelands around Atherton and Cairns.
