My plan is to have morning tea at Bunjil's Lookout, Maude (near Bannockburn) which offers a great view of the surrounding countryside. There are toilets and a shelter, but it will be necessary for people to bring their own morning tea.
I will start by discussing the great variety of bikes and people. We had four very different Triumphs – a Rocket, a Bonneville, a Tiger and a Sprint ridden by Dave, Libby, Vince and Steve C.
BMWs were ridden by Colin, Gary, Jeff and Ray who joined us at the last minute for his first ever ride with the Ulysses Club. The three Hondas were ridden by Bill, Marty and me. Steve B brought his Suzuki V Strom along for the outing.
When looking back at the past couple of years, it is timely to remember that the main stated aim of the Ulysses Club is: “To provide ways in which older motorcyclists can get together for companionship and mutual support.”
Attending the 22nd Melbourne Branch Odyssey at Mansfield provided exactly that sort of camaraderie and I enjoyed it with over 30 others.
The weather forecast for later in the week isn't great so half a dozen of us popped out to explore some of those delightful roads in South Gippsland today. It was a bit cooler than expected but we stayed dry.
After meeting in Emerald, Suzanne, Graham Ian, John, John and I (no I'm not stuttering) made use of Paternoster Road and found our way to Nar Nar Goon before heading south to Athlone
