Neil [Boozer] wanted to test some improvements to his 1250, to my surprise the weather turned out to be pretty good so a couple of SMS messages and a phone call later we were meeting at Raymond Terrace.

By the time we reached Gloucester it was hot and the country side surprisingly dry. I was after some calendar worthy shots but it was too hazy and smoky.

The approximate route http://goo.gl/maps/T1okW


Neil's Bandit at a very dry Dungog lookout.

Lunch at Thunderbolts Cafe in Gloucester, Neil said they were good seats, obviously a reference to the cool breeze not the young ladies passing Wink

Looks like a great day. Sometimes the spur of the moment rides are the best.

Now that you mention it, I can see that you are just to the right of the monument.
