Good to see you made it home in one bit MrB

ScottyB · Mar 25th, 2005, 08:18 AM

OK, my write up

Seriously, one of the best days weve done IMO

Last time I remember a road as good was between Eden and Bombala, and Putty being local - Putty wins

Such a fabulous piece of road, sooooooo good, I cant begin to describe how good that stretch is.

Bumble youve got it good going up, but its nowhere near as fun going down the hill, whereas Putty just kicks arze all the way, both directions

Cant wait to go again

Big day too - I clocked 507kms garage to garage

Now, onto this spate of incidents with that feckin Daewoo... as Kerrie has said, the barsteward fails to look or check his mirrors when merging across three lanes (at 110 on the F3), pushing me off the road, then again to the person infront, continues to do it to everyone up the road, gets off at my exit, proceeds to drive down the centre of a two lane stretch of road, indicating both left and right to pizz me off, alternates speed between 40 and 110km/h (in a 90 zone), then has the audacity to flip me the bird when I pull up beside him at his turn-off set of lights, and shake my head...

So a big **** you to the driver of green Daewoo Lanos VQG 651. Had I been driving anything else...

But anyways

Great day despite the tool of a driver at the end

Cant wait to do Putty again, and encourage everyone to take their MINIs up that route

Piccies soon

Scotty

ScottyB · Mar 25th, 2005, 09:17 AM

Didnt get any shots on the Putty (theres very few opportunities to pull over really - but definately loads of ideas, so will have to plan something in the future

)

Pics when we finished Putty, and arrival at the Halfway Roadhouse.

I had a hamburger at this place (this time last year). I was really enjoying it and a lady came outside and I said, " Did you make this?" She looked at me a bit funny and just said, " Why." I said, " ' it's really nice." She said, " Oh I thought you were gonna say it was crap."

The whole length of the road I was just wishing I was on my bike... I guess next time I drive it I might not be wishing that..

ScottyB · Mar 25th, 2005, 09:27 AM

Last few

OMG, 'Flood Sign'

Thats soo cool, cause its a 'Flood sign' get it! Cause Kerries last name is Flood. You see.... oh forget it

ScottyB · Mar 25th, 2005, 09:28 AM
