It was a great opportunity for another ride and a great cause to support so around 11 Band of bikers joined with other groups to see around 30 bikes make their way to Toowoomba and a great reception at the Sth TWB baptist for lunch.
The riders consolidated at Kallangur Macca's then meandered through Dayboro , up and over Mt Mee...to Esk for Morning tea then up the magic Esk-Hampton Rd to Toowomba.
So with everyone assembled , a coffee in our belly, route instructions instructions and a prayer offered up we headed off through Petrie and Dayboro to the twisties of Mt Mee.

Bikers leaving for Toowomba |
It was then a few went back to Brisbane whilst the rest of us enjoyed the climb up to Toowoomba on the wonderful Esk-Hampton Road.

We made Toowomba with the wind rising and the temperature falling making riding a little challenging ...but we were greeted with a wonderfully warm welcome and scrumptious food at the South Toowoomba Baptist ....oh yes and the Toowoomba Mini club and some classic bikes joined us to make it a great day for a great cause.
lots of great sights, bikes & Characters at the ride for literacy |
You know there were all sorts of bikers on the ride and some actually say that they look like their dogs but a biker who is a dog??
