Sunday/Monday Down Under...
here are a few pics from Sundays ride (well Sunday's SAG (visiting parents) was different to Saturdays (sister and friends) and far less interested in me and more so in the trees!!!) as well as tonights (Monday) sunset from my place. Was going to call you all up and invite you ova for a few drinks on the front porch while this event took place but i realised you would probably wouldnt make it ova in time so i took some pics of it for you to enjoy...

Do you live in the Melbourne area? When I was in OZ some years back on a rockclimbing trip, I was amazed by the topography/flora/fauna of the area. It was beautiful for sure. I also saw more road kill then I have ever seen before. No wonder you guys all drive with bullbars.
nice pics too

Dan, love the photos, keep them coming. Melbourne is stunning. By the way, have you ever encountered a "hatch back" spider?
