Took my son up to a private property on the Murray for a spot of fishing. Took an hour to get the expanda the last 5 Kms down a track. Great weather and great company.

Hey Burnsy,

If I knew you were going to be in the neighbourhood last weekend I would've said you are more than welcome to drop in to our place and grab a shovel, we're digging up the front yard to make room for the new van, ha ha. I'll have to get some photo's of what we're doing up on the web site.

Bugger, would of been great to do some digging! :D

This weekend I took my daughter to netball (they won yay) then went out to work to finish off my new rear bar for the expanda which will now carry our bikes. Back to work on Sunday morning for a quick mod then home to fit, that's when the rain started again! I wanted to get it fitted and hopefully painted before the June long weekend so I decided to go out at about 1.30pm and fit the bar in the rain.......about 1 1/2 hrs later finished, that's when the rain stopped and blue skies! o_O
Go the Blues !!

We had round one of the HPV (human powered vehicles) series in Adelaide. Sunday was a 6 hour race in Victoria Park, part of the Clipsal 500 circuit. HPVs are enclosed tricycles That you lay back in and pedal, steering is via a push pull handle bar system. This is an evenwe aimed at school age through to uni teams. My son is part of his school team and the kids have made the cars from scratch, under guidance from the tech teachers, they also maintain them themselves. Was a great day, with 182 vehicles racing.

I spent Friday night at a mates place at Barwon Heads to get an early start for some motorbike riding in the hills around the back of Anglesea. It was perfect riding weather after the weeks previous rain. Here is the one vid of the day.

Your right mate the terrain really changes a lot down the at the start of the Great Ocean rd
Looks good cruza.
I am starting to think that Barwon Heads generally misses out on the same rain patterns as Melbourne.
:tea: Brad the weather was spot on.
Certainly does in Summer from my experience. I don't complain, though.
We weren't complaining either ;)

Here is the road from Barwon to Torquay a quick vid anyway
