Well it was a memorable weekend !!! I headed out to Condobolin in central NSW to checkout the Condo 750 2 day cross country rallye. It’s a mini version of the Oz Safari / Dakar with bikes and cars competeing including 2 Oz Advriders – GTAus and rjf
I got away from work about 4pm on thurs and it was raining !!:huh , the traffic getting out of Sydney was a pain but soon I was at Windsor and it was time for the ride up Bells Rd, it was wet and chilly but as I got over to the western side of the mountains it started to clear up
The autumn colours were great !!. Finally at Lithgow I caught up with a pile from my touring club and we had a great night:freaky , they were off to Lightning Ridge for the Goat races !!
Friday AM and Rob and I said goodbye and our 2 Africa Twin 750’s headed west for Condo. As we rolled through Orange what should be pulling out from the curb but another Africa Twin !!, not a sight you see often here in Oz, we pulled over to chat and it turned out to be a guy I know, Neil of his 650, I think I know all the AT owners in oz
We kept heading west, Orange – Manildra – Parkes – Bogan Gate – Condobolin. No dirt and the road gets pretty flat past Parkes but it was still good to be out of the city. FFaarrkk it’s dry out there, things are really getting desperate, if there’s no rain soon I think a lot of towns and a whole way of life are going to disappear !!!
