Head West – heading home

Now we are in Victoria and sensing the end of our trip. But we still have 900km to drive and things to see and do along the way, including a ride on a paddlesteamer.

Heading West – SA Return Leg

After reaching our destination of Eucla Western Australia we now start making our way home with the next three days in South Australia.

Heading West – the Nullarbor

From Kimba we head to the coast and visit Streaky Bay and then make our way across the Nullabor to our turn around point of Eucla Western Australia.

Head West old men

Dad has been wanting to do a trip together for a number of years. So this is our Charlie and Boots trip – in a Holden but with no fishing, no hitch-hikers, and not any much shenanigans…

All Peopled Out

It’s only March and it’s felt like a long year already, … but it’s also gone so fast. It’s time to get away for a brief break, but first a quick project to install a battery in the trailer to provide power for my newly installed fridge.

Glenpa Coins

This year’s trip to the UK wasn’t about travelling and touristy activities, but spending time with family and building memories with our grandson.

Hanging out at the Resort

Our normal plan on these trips is to soak up everything we can. So we spend the whole time running from one activity to the next, as you may never be back here. But this year, we decided that we’d do very little and hang around the resort and just chill. Was this the right…

The Bolso goes to Mexico

Spring break time… and we are heading north of the equator to Mexico, thanks to Stampin’ Up!, where it is spring and getting warmer rather than colder.

The Great Ocean Road and Painted Silos

There are a few rides that we’ve talked about doing for many years, the two main ones, Tasmania and Victoria’s Great Ocean Road. Both iconic destinations in their own right and both great riding destinations. We’ve had plans for Tassie a number of times over the last three decades but they’ve always fallen through, and while I’ve done the Great Ocean Road a few times we haven’t ridden it together.

With Deb having a conference in Melbourne on the weekend we booked ourselves a week off to ride the Great Ocean before I drop her at the conference and I’ll continue riding to meet up with some long distance riding friends in Echuca for our annual muster.

Going on a Mural Hunt

I love it out here, open road, big sky, and just the road for company interrupted by the occasional car, truck, or road train. This isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, and I’m not sure whether I can explain it. So, when the chance to take a four-day weekend came up to ride, I jumped at the chance.
