Default Forward notice - 6th Unaugural - 3 May 2008

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!

Calendar duly marked, though it's something of a concern to me that
the iphone's spellchequer wanted to change 'unaugual' to 'unabomber'.


Well, I suppose I *was* dwelling in a shack out there for a couple of
years... ;-)

Ok, the calendar has been marked and the wife informed. I think the
bike is still as trustworthy enough? So in theory, I should be able to
attend this time.

Esh, that's a bit spooky, just this morning I was muttering to the mrs about
how BTH should announce the Unaugural date a bit earlier so we could arrange
leave.

Anyway, we still have to come and get our chairs back!!

'unaugural'

Hmmm... just how much fertilizer do you have stored there BTH?


I'll measure up the compost heap and report back to you this weekend.

I'm afraid I'll be the first to pike, again.

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