Saturday ride to Flowerdale pub... Empty Saturday ride to Flowerdale pub...

What a great day for a ride. Again, a Spyder at the front and a Spyder at the back, sixteen bikes in between, and away we went for lunch at the Flowerdale pub. Aussie Bill took us along some roads that some of us had not seen before.
We had a mishap along the way when one rider’s bike laid down long enough to throw him off and then it jumped up and scooted off riderless for about 150 yards. It missed a safety fence and a pedestrian and then parked itself off the road in some bushes. Very entertaining for the rider following him. The last couple of us came around the corner, saw the rider on the road and wondered where the hell his bike was.
No bones broken and when Mick rounded up the bike, the rider, and the ride, continued.
Good lesson there… it pays to wear the right gear.
We arrived at the Flowerdale pub, had lunch with about another hundred bikers and then rode home as a group.
Thanks Aussie Bill and the great company for a good day out in good weather.


Don’t forget, next Thursday’s easy, short ride will be to the Three Sugars in Warburton. It leaves Brunch at 1100, weather permitting.
