Yes ! A bubbled wrapped motor bike and yes! Wondered if it was a precious Harley<br />
underneath. Being us we couldn't help ourselves and just had to ask. It wasn't a Harley. We<br />
were reassured it was a 'Vincent' that had been on mission to a rally in NSW<br />
That night we rested at the Iron Knob Hotel. After realising it was much later than we<br />
thought due to that strange invisible time line. Alan the publican was surprised and happy<br />
to see us. I hadn’t told him we were coming. Yeah some hard core riding and on the lookout<br />
for Roos on the last stretch Caught up to a few bikers who raised eyebrows when we<br />
mentioned where we had left from that day and where we hoped to end up. (wooses). Every<br />
other fuel up, we kept coming across a fella that Christine had chatted up in Cocklebiddy<br />
and wondered if he and his prize alpacas were stalking us all the way to Poochera.<br />
Tues 23 rd Oct – We stopped in Narracoorte to feast on<br />
Australia’s largest donut that overlaps a dinner plate – we went<br />
halves for brunch.<br />
Pulled in at Keith for the night and who did we see??? 5<br />
members of the Great Southern branch. A friendly lot who Let us use their kitchen to<br />
make a cuppa and cook our dinner while they were at the pub.<br />
Weds 24 th Oct - Anyhow a big time out<br />
there with lots of people marvelling at two girls on<br />
WA plates heading to the Moto GP. We managed to<br />
catch up with a few more bikes on the Great Ocean<br />
Road with WA plates. It was a cruisey enjoyable<br />
ride through the elbow bends and speccy scenery. A<br />
much nicer ride than last time. This time being<br />
midweek and the road has been repaired.<br />
Finally relaxing at a friends place in Melbourne,<br />
before heading off to the island tomorrow.<br />
Thurs 25 th – Sun 28th Oct - Had a lovely day<br />
browsing the accessory sections of the<br />
motorcycle shops in Elizabeth street. Christine<br />
fell in lurve with a greeny coloured Guzzi Griso<br />
in the Aprilla shop. Colour is a big factor for us<br />
girls. We ended up at Peter Stevens far too<br />
long, Christine stocked up on Jackets. Then<br />
bought chaps at Mars Leathers. One must keep<br />
her away from shops when there is a time limit<br />
to hit the road. They all loved her credit card.<br />
We finally got back to Lou's house, packed the<br />
bikes. It started to rain as we pulled the bikes<br />
out of the shed. Typical Phillip Island weekend. Then being so late the 145ks to the Island
