    Is anyone planning on participating on this ride this year? I'm trying to get a few people together from around my local area. What do you all think

    Yea it would be a blast .... but I think a trailer would look a little odd on an FZR250 :cool:

    Well it's a bit over 6000 kms from Sydney , I would rather put those many kms on the Ninjette than on a nicer bike.
    However, I think my body would be sore for months following the event.

    I've been lookin at the GSX-F 650, the LAMS one. They're nice and there are definitely a few goin cheap.
    My work is a large participant in the event and raised $85k last yr for it, so I'm keen to participate. It's for a good cause.

    I don't know what you need a trailer for G.I. You only need one pair of pants.....:neo:

    You see what I need is a bike that will go 6000kms, I'm happy I've managed 500kms without a breakdown! Lol. I'm still gonna tinker as well :crazypilot:

    Sounds like a great ride, would love to visit Ayres rock but my mind tells me that my body has confirmed a NO!!
    Great cause also, for me it's a route too far.

    And 2 pairs of underpants and the spare could fit in your pocket :lolsign:

    The trailer though would be for the other 3 sets of carbys and all the other spares and half a workshop of tools :prankster:

    You gotta love a man who comes prepared.:lolsign: The spare undies are to be used only in the event of a breakdown.
