Yesterday we headed off towards Byron , strange watching the sun go UP over the ocean
We then headed up through the hinterland to Mullumbimby for coffee , the traffic going into Byron was ridiculous so we gave it a miss , we used to live up this way 15 years or so ago , can’t believe how busy it now - they can have the joint ......

From Mooball to Murwullimbah, more awesome roads and hardly any traffic on the Tweed Valley Way

Then into Surfers for a look , I was planning to stop here for the night but my queen decided we had to stay in Brisbane so we drove to Brisbane in peak hour traffic- NOT FUN
My idea of how to spend the afternoon-
Her idea -
The only time we did over 80km/h all day

I had to look twice at that speedo.... for a minute there I thought you were REALLY in a hurry to get to Brisbane, and had broken the ton.
Darn metric system.

Right , been a while we have been busy but now I am home and it’s raining so time to put up some more ramblings - Friday we met up at a pub in Brizzy to cruise up to Toowoomba together - pulled into a local servo and found this dodgy looking character pinching hubcaps off an old bomb in the carpark
The lineup at the pub , there was 9 cars in total including Richard and Lenny
