Girls Ride Out – June Ride Report

Hi GRObies

Well how lucky were we yesterday with the weather.  Must be that sun god that Selena is always praying to.

Didn't actually get to count how many bikes there were, but I'm sure there would have been in the vicinity of 25 - 30.  

It started off very cool for us (3º at Campbelltown) with our 80+km ride to the meeting point at Berowra, (the penalties of being a South Westerner) where we met some new and some seasoned GRObies. 

We started off at 10.30 and made our way to Road Warriors at Mt White for coffee and a catch up with Di Scaysbrook from DOC. 

After everyone refreshed, and with our new learners in tow, we set off for Wollombi.  They were awesome, and did extremely well.  They should be very proud of their achievements yesterday, particularly on Lemmings corner, they blitzed through it.  Well not really blitzed, they took their time and at their own pace and rode through it very comfortably.

Being at the rear of the pack, we didn't get to Wollombi until just before 1.00pm where lunch was in full swing.  There were heaps of bikes around which is always an awesome sight.  Our Northern Stars were also out in force as they had ridden there to meet up with the main GRO group for lunch.  Thanks to all you Stars, it was great catching up and am looking forward to a joint ride very soon.

Sadly I had to leave around 2ish as we had a very long ride home ahead of us and the clouds were slowly moving in.  It took us 2 1/2 hours to get home, boy was I glad to see my driveway.

Thanks to everyone who came today and braved the cold.

Also, a special thanks goes to Scott for entertaining us as he left (the mono with Paula on the back) and the beating that he got for doing it as they rode away.  One thing I've learnt from this is never to dare Scott to do anything, won't make that mistake twice, he he he.

Overall a fun day out doing what we love to do - ride motorcycles and
chat to our friends.
