Not only do I hope to catch up with Terry with lizard in hand at the PI Classic this weekend, but I am also going to the VJMC Rally in Warilla NSW on March 9th to 11th (will be lots of sohc's there for pics) and again going to Sydney on May 7th for a week's holiday - flying over both times, but if needed I can transport him, if it works out that way and he's stuck for a ride - lot of ifs, but they are options.
When he gets to SA there are lots of rides to be had.....I'm sure he's going to enjoy some of the Adelaide Hills roads.....routs (also Peter) and I will give him a damn good thrashing 8)
Cheers
Peter.

G'day
My bike is ready to go for some sort of trip in the Sydney ish area. So just let me know what I can do to help.
I will be ridding to Phillip Island for the Super Bikes late Feb if that helps at all ( won't be riding the CB750 though so if GZ needs a lift he may have to keep his eyes closed and think CB thoughts )

G'Day Scott

Thanks mate.

Terry has the lizard with him in Melbourne now and they're off to the PI Classic with Brian (bear) and Pete (petercb750).
When the boys have shown GZ around Vic, we'll work out between ourselves where to send him from there.

The plan is to send the lizard off to Sam so that he can go drag racing in Finland after we've finished.
I'd like to get him away from here in Darwin (last port of call) by early May, and that gives us about 3 months to show GZ around OZ.

Looks like I'll just miss the Vic leg. I'll get to Melbourne Feb 23rd. If anyone in the area wants to show me around I'd appreciate it. I hope you all have as much fun on the relay as we did here in the states. Cheers!

Mick, when the lizard heads to Qld and if you decided to go inland from Sydney to Brisbane I would be keen to help out. I live at Goondiwindi, on the Newell Highway.

A warm welcome to Oz mate.
We'll wait and see where GZ is cruising about over the next few weeks and you just might catch up with him again.

G'Day dingo

That's terrific mate if you can be a part of this.

Somehow we'll get that lizard to you when he begins to venture up to your neck of the woods.
The way this rain is hammering down in Qld and Darwin at the moment, we might have to stick some floaties on the bikes.  ;D

Over the next few weeks, I reckon that we'll have a bit better idea where GZ will be heading and also when.

I've added your name to the Oz riders list and I've also let Jerry know as well so that he can include you on the main list of participants.

Mick and Dingo,

List updated  ;)  Welcome aboard Dingo.

Mick,

I'm outta the US beginning this Sunday and won't be online for 2 weeks. Head north and bring GZ to Palau and we'll do some serious drinking and diving!  ;)

That sounds like a great plan.  ;D
Would it be OK if Terry comes along as well?
I know that he's still looking for that bottle of Makers that went missing.

I'm sure that the 4 of us (inc GZ) could get Palau into the international headlines if we all get together.  8)

G'Day Ben

I'm sure that GZ will be able to find his way up to Cairns.
If we can get Vic, SA & WA covered firstly and then start working him up through NSW and Qld and then across here to Darwin (possibly via Katherine), that should all work out quite well.

Getting him over to WA and back will involve a bit of criss/crossing but I can't see another way of doing that.
We have 1 member in WA, Leigh (Kwality) who would also like to be involved in the relay.

GZ will have to do some travelling via Aust Post due to the distances but that won't be a problem and we'll work that out as we go along.

I'll get you added onto the list as well Ben and we'll get it all happening.

Mick

Hey Ben,

Great to have you onboard! I'm hoping you can do the handoff with Terry on that nice F. I'd PAY to see Terry puking in the presence of almighty GZ  ;D

Ben, I am in the Burdekin area. If the rally comes through here I would like to ride a section - either north or south so we may be able to catch up. How far we ride will depend on how many riders we have I guess. Keep in touch. Pat

G'day Alex

Godzilla is winging his way into Darwin from Cairns at the moment and then he'll be off on his way to Sam in the UK this coming Monday.
We have a time schedule to fufill with the lizard and we need to keep him moving across the globe.

I don't know if you're aware of Godzillas "Partner in Crime" (Lefty)
Story has it that we may well be repeating something similar if Lefty makes an appearance in OZ.

Get that Honda 4 tuned up, polished up and barking loudly just in case.  ;)  8)

Hey Mick thanks for letting me know.

I will keep them ready to go in case :)

I wasnt sure how tight his schedule was, seems he has plenty of love!

Good Luck with him up there in the NT!
