    HNY all. And to get the year off to a great start...

    The 2017 Island Classic

    http://islandclassic.com.au/island-classic-home

    Normally we get zero numbers for a ride to this event, but this year I'm hoping @joker and the Club250 team will mean a 2fiftycc group of riders will be there. If anyone wants to go for a ride on the Sat or Sun (both are good days), then let me know or go to the Club250 facebook page and get busy...or whatever it is people do on facebook.

    ....they sit at their desks and pretend they have lots of friends for the most part :D

    I'll talk to the leadership group to see if they want to set up something to head down :)

    For the moment I created a poll to see what sort of interest we get. Hopefully I'll have the phaser going by then I wouldn't mind taking her on a longer ride.

    That's the place where some people swear or abuse each other. It's pretty sad .

    Facebook is a place where you post pics of what you are eating at a restaurant or a place to announce that you are going to the gym

    I think it's pronounced "Gime" (according to Homer Simpson).

    For the record I don't "like" facebook... it's just a very convenient tool to use. Ever tried using the crappy tapatalk app? :offtopic::lolsign:

    Back on topic... seems we might have a contingent heading down to the classic on the saturday. If the Phaser isn't ready I might drive down but we should see a few bikes there. Will post up details of meeting points etc for anyone who is interested in tagging along.

    Well done Stu. I will tag along with the Club250 riders on the Saturday. Let me know if you can't get your bike running in time, I should have something in the shed you can ride down to the Island. As always, rain means I'm out.
