    Hi All,
    I'll be starting from Toowoomba on Sunday heading for mount glorious
    for brekkie, then back this way towards somerset, then depending on
    weather and how keen people feel either

    A) the shorter route round the lake through esk and wivenhoe dam and
    mount glorious again

    or

    B) the longer route from somerset head to Kilcoy then right at
    D'aguilar towards Brisbane.

    I'm on a 92 CBR1000F with panniers setup more as a sports tourer with
    semi sticky rubber, the ride will be at legal speeds as I'll have my
    partner on the back and value my kidneys. Might be a nice ride for
    people who enjoy a casual half day tour at moderate speeds with coffee
    and possibly conversation along the way. Riders of all sizes and
    makes are welcome, with or without their partners.

    Have plans for a few more rides this month and it would be nice to
    find some people keen on coming along.

    Plan on meeting at Maiala Rainforest Teahouse & Restaurant, 1850 mount
    glorious road at 10am, for a coffee and brekkie for those who are
    hungry. Leaving at 10:30 approximately, ride will finish early
    afternoon. There are lots of bikes at this place usually, so feel
    free to give me a call if you cant work out who is going on the ride,
    0406 119 921. Weather forecast is good at the moment, but ride will
    be cancelled if there is rain.

    Don't want to look a spoiler but,.....
    I presume you're aware of the numbers they can get at Maiala on Sundays.
    I'd be wondering how long you've got for breakfast and a table.
    Also, watch out for the crap on the road, after the rain, down the back
    of Glorious and Nebo.
    Have a good run.
