The drizzle FINALLY cleared for a bit today and I decided it was time for a ride. Caught up with Eospro at the Kulnura Cafe, then we (2 GSXFs and a Ducati) decided to have a quick run before the rain came back. Made about 15km and then the bloody sprinkles started again. We headed back to Gosford and the Ducati decided that it had had enough and the clutch gear played up - just enough to create a problem with Graeme thinking he had no clutch as he had difficulty finding a gear and neutral. Eventually we got back in light drizzle. Bloody rain is back again.

Great Pic's guys. It's good that you got a chance to get out for a spin. I unfortunately just spent the entire weekend at work.
Seems to me that a Ducati will turn any weekend rider into a full time mechanic. I know a few 1098 owners who always have problems. They need to trade 'up' to a good ol' reliable 650F.

Nice pics. I feel for ya with only a 15km ride. Oh well. A few of us went out to lunch today, I chose a place 100 miles away...so 200 miles today. I love El Nino, one pass got down to 35F degrees but nothing that chips and salsa can't fix Can't believe I get to ride 200 miles in one day during February in the PNW.
