Blue Mountains Ride - 12 Nov 2007

Canberra - Bathurst - Blue Mountains - Katoomba

Monday 12 Nov 2007

Here is the team at Dan and Alison's home in Canberra. With a range of bikes from Dan's BMW K Series tourer to a Yamaha FZR250 we had a great mix of bikes and juggling range and riding comfort was always going to be interesting.

We also had an older Kawasaki GPX250 Ninja in the mix which still looks the goods today

After reaching Bathurst, the obligatory lap around the spiritual home of Australian motorsport.





Now this picture needs an explanation. Jarrod rode the Yamaha FZR250 and when we unpacked at the hostel in Katoomba he brings out this "cocoon" and explains that it was a present from his mother-in-law, something to do with being comfortable when flying. I have since learned that these things are great for keeping out the bed-bugs.
