    The date will be Saturday 8 May 2010. For those who complained about
    the full moon obscuring the stars last year, this date is 2 days after
    the moon's last quarter[1]. Please mark your calendars.

    Given the number of aus.motorcycles people who have colonised
    aus.bicycle (Zebee, Theo, Me, Lemmiwinks, Tex, Moike, Tim +anyone else
    I've forgotten), and the fact that I've done about the same number of
    km aboard a bicycle this year as on a motorcycle, it seems only fair
    to invite the aus.bicycle people along as well.

    In short, the Unaugural is an annual gathering of aus.moto people in a
    paddock on my farmlet near Tarago, NSW. Weather permitting, we have a
    bonfire of sufficient size to provide a reasonable simulation of
    Armageddon. There is overnight camping, awards for various
    achievements (such as longest distance travelled to attend), and much
    drinking of alcohol and telling of lies.

    Think of it as the best parts of fishing, once one gets rid of all the
    useless folderol of lines, hooks, boats, bait and water. (And fish).

    Here are some photos from the most recent events:

    There's even a FAQ, here:

    Hoping to see some familiar faces, and some new ones, in 2010!

    I still can't believe that "smallest engine capacity" was won by a
    GS500!

    I can't believe I'm still alive after cracking all the ice off the tent the
    morning after...

    I should be getting my full license around mid April, so with any luck
    I'll be able to bring along an even bigger bike.

    I can polish the hubcaps on the Volvo.

    Is there a prize for most polished hubcaps?

    How about largest engine?

    Slowest journey?

    Most conservative hat?

    Most charming personality?

    Or I could ride a push bike all the way from Ultimo.

    Tomasso.
