Living under 100 km from the Snowy Mountains I can go there anytime and like tweet says 2000 lunatics all together is hectic......lol. It is a great cause of course but I go up there through the week when its quieter. The Snowy Ride gets bigger every year.

Can't wait for this year's ride. I had my first one last year as well. So far i haven't topped it. Gearing up this year for the 10th Anniversary ride, until last Friday I could smell a strong stench of coolant burning. Checked it out, sure enough the water pump on my girl decided to leak. Honda genuine part only. One left in Australia. Should arrive Tuesday arvo, according to Honda. The bird has just clocked up 34,000kms. I thought it was strange for a w/pump to fail. Anyway cant wait for new part to throw it together and wrap my legs around her once again.

Cheers
