I was planning to ride on after we have marshall the trucks in and have a rest, was thinking about going from Gatton out towards Warwick then back through Boonah for a late lunch, then back to Ipswich/Brisbane by about 4... Let me know if your coming to the convey and the after ride.

Just ride.

I thought there was a riders brief at 0945! Doc/MRC can you confirm or deny this rumour

looks like it will be a good turn out, from toowoomba, lots of guys buying polish and truck wash, listen out for a customer who came in today, he has two sets of train horns attached to the chassis behind the sleeper.

dust and dirt inside the cab
the truckies make their way.
through flood and drought
the seasons curse
safe trip home . is all we say.
