Oh well. Maybe you'll have some time to yourself when you reture? ;-)

Theo: you'll cross the country for something as trivial as the MotoGP,
yet pike at the Unaugaral. Something fishy there.
Bet you could carry a bicycle on the Norge.

BTH: hope I'm not the last to pike this time. Got room for Bean's gear
on your truck? A TCR is not a loaded tourer.

Well yes I *do*, but I'd prefer to think that Bean is enough of a
Rugged Individualist to borrow Aaargh and carry his own gear. ;-)

And why are you piking, anyway?

I'm not, translation error.

The date will be May 3, 2008. Please mark your calendars.

Given the number of aus.motorcycles people who have colonised
aus.bicycle (Zebee, Theo, Me, Lemmiwinks, Tex, Moike, Tim +anyone else
I've
forgotten), and the fact that I've done about the same number of km
aboard a bicycle this year as on a motorcycle, it seems only fair to
invite the aus.bicycle people along
as well.

In short, the Unaugural is an annual gathering of aus.moto people in a
paddock on my farmlet near Tarago, NSW. Weather permitting, we have a
bonfire of sufficient size to provide a reasonable simulation of
Armageddon. There is overnight camping, awards for various
achievements (such as longest distance travelled to attend), and much
drinking of alcohol and telling of lies.

Think of it as the best parts of fishing, once one gets rid of all the
useless folderol of lines, hooks, boats, bait and water. (And fish).

Here are some photos from the most recent event (the 5th Unaugural),
in May 2007:

Hoping to see some familiar faces, and some new ones, in 2008!

Just looked on Google Earth, it appears it might have been taken after the
2006 Unaugural. I'm sure I can see the mower crop circles and the mowed
patch for the tents! Can definitely see the path to the dunny.

Weren't we in the shed for the 2006 Unaugural? Or was that 2005?

Clearly my mind is going...

In the shed, but the crop circles still happened!! And I made many a trip to
the dunny.
