this week end the queensland branch of royalenfield australia club went on there monthly ride. one c5 three classic 500/s two lean burns, and five assorted other bikes. our 320 k ride took us thru rural queensland ,over mountain ranges into new south wales, then we had to cross the river on a barge to arrive at the town of maclean witch is situated right on the river the hotel we stayed in had a log fire and every one had a relaxing time after the ride .early the next morning two of us rode back to brisbane. we rode up along the coast into the hills overlooking the sea. as i was roaring up the highway on my bullet at 95 ks an hour i had to think life is so good, some times the simple things are the best.
