Them were the days....the 2005 bunch parked in Hobart CBD

Man I can still remember parts of that trip like they happened last week, not 17 years ago. One thing I didn't recognise though, was the red firestorm. I always remember Jase riding a blue VFR and I'd completely forgotten that he was on a VTR1000 on that trip.

One of my best memories of that trip was when we all split up north of Swansea, and a few went off around the coast to Coles Bay, while the rest headed west up the Lake Leake Road and we all converged later at Bicheno. Jo and I stopped at the Lake Leake Pub, picked up a cold beer and a cold coke, and then went and sat on the grass by the lake and enjoyed the serenity.

<-- now went that way

While I was in Hobart for work in March this year I went for a walk from the Hotel and walked right past here, I had no idea where it actually was in relation to the Hobart CBD, it was all closed up, no idea what is there now. it was a great place, I can never work out why Australians cant have a try motorcycle hangout, they just don't seem to work

its been over 10 Years since Matt's death, I was down there the week it happened, tragic and too soon

Is this a game of guess the ride, the rider and the ride? Bananarama 2003. Left to Right, Sasha - ZZR250, Mick G - ZX9, John B - R6, Suzie - ZR7, Gunter - DL1000, Goodie - Pegaso , Glitch - Pegaso. No idea where the photo was taken because I wasn't there. Looks like Queensland.

That was Bananarama and that Pegaso on the right, next to Goodie was my Pegaso from Pete.

No game.... just a pic flicking across the desktop and some reflections.

Bananarama v.1.0 sounds right.
