Bikers

Hi!
How is everyone?
Its been a busy week.
Childhood/neighbourhood friends came over to Tassie to ride their bikes around the state… starting at our place! (L – R Roger, Lisa, Brandt and Clinton)

And yes… I did get to go for a ride… and 8 hour ride… through the wild west coast weather to Strahan and back!!

I loved it – very exciting way to travel!
Disappointed for the guys not being able to see the amazing views down that way.
We were sodden and fairly chilled, so we called up Jeff and left instructions to have the fire roaring for us.
It was bliss walking into the house!
The fire had its work cut out drying all the gear!

I was relieved to see sunshine the next morning!

It was just fabulous seeing them all again. I was in the same year as Clinton – mortal enemies until about year 8. His older brother Brandt I was best buds with for a number of years. Roger was part of the group of kids that we hung out with in our area (his parents owned the corner shop)
They (never me) used to get into so many scrapes as kids and general mischief along with dodginess haha
They all grew up to be pretty amazing humans 🙂

Happily they got some great weather for the rest of their week here.

Fishing was high on the ‘to do’ list

As well as test driving all the pubs and eating places possible

There were some exciting moments on the road of course…

(No-one hurt but because of the impeccable vehicle placing over the culvert, no one could get past for an hour or so!)

The brothers doing a fair hike up to see Wineglass Bay… in motorbike boots!! Erk!!

Brant got back to our place early so I took him on a drive along the NW Coast to see the sights…
Then did the same with Clinton when he arrived back… but on the back of his bike (Roger went back a day earlier than the others)

So bright the light!!
Clinton was the best windbreak to ride pillion behind! After a while of not seeing him I forget how solid he is!!!

It was so enjoyable seeing them all again and showing off our bit of Tassie (actually having visitors again!)
Seems all quiet at Norwich House now!!

Hope everyone has had an excellent week
Cheers!
