Jandowie trail bike ride

In the lead up to the weekend, Wazza was preparing/planning a way to take camper van and bike with only one car. I told him that I would rather not go than borrow a car. He bought a piece of channel iron and tied it to the tow bar of van, was going to bolt it but rope secured it good enough. The idea was to push the bike, only weighing 105 kilos, up and into the channel. We practised seveal times and strapped it on. Eleven o'clock on Friday morning, we set off, right on time! I had prepared lunch to have on the way, the campsite opened at 3pm. Uneventful run but thankfully there are now two lanes open on the Blackbutt road, speed still is 40 kms for a few kms but no stopping, what a bonus! Pulled into camp at 3.45pm just as they were placing the thunder boxes around the area. Single ones in a semi circle, woo hoo, they were flushing and even had a sink inside with running water to wash hands. Cooked dinner of sausages in bread at 5pm as we had no light except a torch, we got into bed at 6.45pm as we thought that it would be warmer there. People were rocking up for several hours and hammering in pegs. Ride got off about 11.15am, Warren had gone down to Robert & Melody's camp about 10.30 but as they were getting ready to go, their tent blew over the car doing some damage. Luckily the guys were all there and able to fix it.Lunch was late a staek sandwich, had to walk about 800 mts over thick tufted grass. Saw the trail bike on video that night while we ate hot chips. Pancakes and strawberries for breakfast ( I took it from home already mixed) felt quite special, a smaller ride on Sunday then packed up and left for home. Dalby maccas was paid a visit again, busy place that and I drove for a couple of hours, not notable difference with the extra weight. back home just before 6pm.
