We'll see...

Hi Robyn,

Can relate to many aspects of your intro, particularly your passion for your bike and your steely determination for getting back in the saddle ‘so to speak.’

There’s nothing like you own bike, good mates and cold beer!

See you on the road..

You may not need your $23.00 tent if the orange "taj mahal" is till down there belated welcome aboard from your fellow hard core camper

ROFLMAO.....
Yeh that 6.5kg one??? PRICELESS!
Would you believe the zipper in my tent was starting to come off its tracks, so I took it back and got a new one! I'm ready for GP08.

Well you lot. I've just purchased another tent for $45. Its called the Grotto and looks just like the Road captains.
O yeah this one weighs in at 7kg. Not leavin this one down there. I also will be buying an Rjays gear bag that's twice the size if the Venture one I have.
This just means i can carry more stuff..... Looks like its 50kg on the back instead of 20kg.

Hey girl, maybe I'll park my $32 tent that I bought for last years GP alongside yours!

Dunno what everyone else is doing... camped last year for the GP so thought to do it again

I'll definitely be camping! My 2.6kg tent will look out of place amongst those of the grotto!

Yeh do it sista!! There IS only one way, imho...... and that's the Hard core crew all the way!!

LMAO

I think technically I am "hardcore" not "hard core" though... might need someone to clear that up, I'm not quite sure of the various definitions!

But hardcore or hard core, I'll come pitch my little tent beside yours girl, sounds like fun!

After seeing phils Grotto withstand gale force winds and rain at the Island....(Mine notwithstanding anything),
I had to grab a tent suitable for any occasion and weather. Go the Grotto.

Think the top half of an old western covered wagon and you get some idea of the Road Captain's portable abode, the grotto is the bit at the front where he let his house servants rest and recuperate.
