We regrouped at Braidwood, I showed the boys how I had christened my new boot’s toe-sliders, and we bid farewell to Taxus as he would turn off for Goulburn a little way up the road. We had a great run up the mountain, only needing to pass a couple of cars, and startling a rider on a two-stroke Aprilia of some sort. Into the proper twisties, Taxus waved me past and I set off in pursuit of Trev. A couple of young hoons on sports bikes passed us in the sweepers before the Clyde Mountain, and then we caught them at the bottom – it looked like they were waiting for us so they could repeat their trick, but we didn’t see them again V4 power wins again. This time I managed to get around 14minutes of footage following Trev and Taxus. After a bit to eat once again I fiddled with the camera, choosing a different mounting position. I stuffed around with the camera again, managing to only record a small amount of video.Īt the bottom of the Valley we pulled into a servo in Nowra as Taxus needed fuel this time.įrom there we had a relaxed ride down the coast to Bateman’s Bay, for lunch at the usual café. Kangaroo Valley has heaps of 35 & 45km/h bends, with a couple of 15km/h thrown in to slow down the trucks! Just after the town we pulled over as Hayden was leaving us here, and Terry had to return home unexpectedly. The ride through Kangaroo Valley was excellent, although it was interrupted by too many cars blocking a clear run. Little did I know that I had the camera chews battery power like it is going out of fashion, more on this later in the report. This is from Johns camera just as we were leaving, Trev leading, then Taxus, Hayden, Terry, and me so that I could film them as we trundled down the road. John and Stuart had to go home, so the rest of us left for Kangaroo Valley. I then fiddled about with my camera, getting it aligned properly etc, looking in the view finder, realising I had it faced backwards, facing it forwards, and generally farting about.

We were going to do a run on Mac Pass, but the guys told us there were cops out today on the Pass, doing breathalyser tests and generally spoiling riders fun, so we just sat down for a coffee instead. Trev and I stopped at Marulan for a splash of petrol, then tootled off to Robertson for a breakfast pie with the other lads who had only been waiting from us for about 10 minutes. ‘Course, I didn’t use a tether so if it fell off it was gone. I had the suction cup mounted on the side faring, but hadn’t attached the camera as I wanted to see if the mount would stay on at highway speeds. Trev and I set off from Canberra around 9am to meet the guys at Robertson Pie Shop, some 150 km away.Īs an aside, earlier in the week I had received my latest gadget, a GoPro Motorsports Hero camera, and this was the shakedown ride. Luckily, an auto-inclusion script that is used when calling rides meant that Trev and I from Canberra would be attending, along with a few other Sydney listers Terry, Hayden, JohnS: Just another OzVFR ride day, Saturday 6th December 2008Ī ride was called by Taxus, one of the Sydney OzVFR members.
