[STICKY]My Pic Of The Day

Last minute ride, sunny day, didn't leave till 11.
Fog from about 1 km from home till Healesville. Black Spur, turn right at Dom Dom saddle, the road down to Acheron Way was a bit slippery in spots, but not too bad. Feiglins Rd then across to here for lunch.

Lovely blue sky, bit chilly, but all good.

Back through Marysville, Old Coach Rd, Manby Rd, then across to Toolangi where it started getting foggy again.

Old Toolangi Rd then into Yarra Glen. The car wash now is card only, which is good in that you don't have to remember to carry coins, bad in that it costs a 25c surcharge every time you use your card, so you have to guess between 2, 4, 8 or $10. $4 did it for me with some extra time for boot cleaning.

Around 170ks, home by 3. Lady Talbot drive next now it is open, too late a start today for me.

Cheers Ian
Looks like a good day @Squizzy
I am out with the dreaded man flu at the moment. Managed to get a short ride in last Sunday in the rain. Maybe that explains the man flu (just don’t tell the missus other wise I’ll get even less sympathy than I’m currently getting 😂)

You get sympathy? Lucky man.

Just a few from In the Driver's Seat event at Sandown today. It was either raining or people lined up to go for a ride in the sidecar.

These girls decided against it when the helmet and gloves bit started.

A few Spyders turned up and some solos. Good day, a bit wet at times.

Apparently, the only event of it's type around the world. Tried in the US, probably stopped by legal issues. Visually impaired people driving around a racetrack, what could go wrong?

Very well organized by the Lion's Club, safety is a big deal, no accidents with cars as yet. A few bikes have come to grief over the years, but the wet weather seems to keep them away, just us idiots turn :)

Did around 120ks around the track and carpark. Didn't have lunch till 2, even then only a few minutes. Early night for me. :)
