Seems that everyone that who owns a Kawasaki lives on the south side!
And that's the way it should be! Everyone knows the southside is the better side of town! :D

I live 20 mins from Mt Glorious/Nebo and 10mins from Mt Mee. All of the beautiful Sunshine Coast roads like Obi Obi and Peachester are only a stones throw away- wouldn't move for the world! 8)

Isn't there too many coppers up thru Nebo / Glorious run now? I actually lived at the bottom of Peachester Range (Beerwah) for 12 years. Yes it is motorcycling heaven up there for sure :roll:
I do miss the area. You forgot Stanley River Rd.
I just spent all my childhood days on the southside and am back here now. It has its good and bad, like everywhere I guess.
You should venture this way and do the Beechmont, Advancetown, Springbrook trip. Or the Rathdowney to Kyogle run 8)
Plenty of good riding on the almighty southside!!! :D

Yes, that is the one negative- but if you do the right thing you don't have to worry! :roll:
(You know I really was breaking the law by having a cylindrical rego holder that prevented the kind officer from reading my rego from 6 metres away, and I deserved to be severely punished for flaunting the road rules that way. :twisted: )

I have ridden all of those roads except Advancetown- you do have some lovely roads in your backyard there! :D
Let's face it- it's a win-win situation in QLD no matter where you are! (Maybe we should be picking on the southerners instead of quarreling amongst our own ranks- they are about to begin the colder weather aren't they? You know- the weather where they put their bikes away for the next 7 months......... :twisted: :lol: :lol: )

Yes we are fortunate that we can get value out of 12 months rego, unlike our friends down south.
I am not sure how they do it sometimes. I occasionally complain about our pseudo-winters up here :) .
Yes i can definitely see how you would be a danger to yourself and the greater public by sporting a cylindrical rego sticker holder.
It is a good thing that police officer got hold of you before something catastrophic happened.
You are a very naughty girl indeed, when and where does the public lashing take place :lol:

No public lashing required- i have seen the error of my ways and conformed to societies rules by replacing it with a standard rego holder- you can all rest assured that you are safe on the roads now that the nice Mr Plod set me straight! :roll:
