Saturday 28th - Vietnam Vets Charity Ride Day

The NCMC held its monthly ride supporting the Vietnam Vets Charity Ride Day for Legacy. It consisted of a Poker Run starting from Lismore via Casino then Woodburn and back to Wollongbar Tavern. It was a gentelmans ride with the focus being mainly on raising money for Legacy. There was approximately 100 Bikes - it was a fantastic day with great weather.

Sunday 29th - Ulysses Club - Fortnightly Ride

A couple of Riders from the NCMC, Craig Caban, Nicholas Kostyn, Ed & Jill Cullen joined the Ulyssians for their ride to Copmanhurst Pub, about 40 Riders and Pillions all up. We stopped in the main street of MacLean for morning tea and then a very scenic ride across the Ferry to Lawrence. Out to the Copmanhurst Pub and for us a bit of a wait till we got fed but the food was good. A great day and again fantastic weather.

The Spectacular View - Mt French

The bike wanted to see the view too...

Ed doesn't have to walk back!

Eight Riders and Pillions turned up for our ride to Dugandan Pub then Mt French Lookout. Weather was overcast but "dry".
First stop was Grevillea Servo/Cafe for great Morning Tea, where we were greeted by Nicholas and Jack as well as other riders coming from Queensland.
Onto Boonah via Mt Lindsay Highway and through the "twisties" where Jeff Gutherie explored the limits of his Bandit on the way home.
A lucky flash from a car possibly saved us from a Qld Copper hiding with a speed camera, who's mate was up ahead 10 Km's from Dugandan Pub.
Dugandan Pub was a sea of Bikes and older done up Cars, there were riders and enthusiasts everywhere. I thought there was no way we would get a seat in the Pub but low and behold there was a full table reserved with an "Ed" sticker on it - I was impressed!
Time was getting on so after lunch a few decided to head back home and others went up to Mt French to check out the view and what a spectacular view it was (see video and photos).
The weather was starting to turn so it was time to head home. We all made it back to Lismore safely.

Riders Rest

2010-06-01T20:20:00.009+10:00

We all left LMC in the "pouring rain" on Saturday morning, not the best riding conditions but we made it to our first scheduled stop at Grevillia Road House in one wet piece -sporting wet midrifts, black hands and a major Glad Bag Fashion Statement courtesy of the Grevillia shop. A group decision was made to abandon our scheduled route in favour of a shorter route through Urbenville to Bonalbo Pub for lunch. The weather started to clear and the sun came out as we headed to the Riders Rest to meet up with our intrepid support vehicle and crew of Jill, Michelle and Jack. We had the best dinner of roast beef and garlic bread and salads, which was put on for us by our host "Bob" who built the whole place himself even down to milling the timber. This was followed by Pool, Darts and dancin to music from the 70's and a quick outbreak of Nutbush City Limits. A huge fire kept us warm as the chill of the night set in + the alcohol we consumed. As we all drifted off to our beds, the music was heard to go right into the wee small hours. The Accommodation was first class and very comfortable, especially the honeymoon sweet....
We awoke to a leisurely breakfast of bacon and eggs and sausages etc with the sauce bottle viking dragon holder moving swiftly up and down the giant table, much to Jack's delight. We had a small presentation where Nicholas gave Bob a Northern Rider T-Shirt and lots of group photos, which will appear on the blog soon, unfortunately we had a camera malfunction so will have to rely on others for the happy snaps. Back to Coraki Pub for a quick drink and then on to our place in South Lismore for an impromptu sausage sizzle. This will be another ride we will have to re-visit in the future. Ed & Jill
