The Best Things in Life - Riding with your mates

In a week of firsts, the GSXR-600 got the shock of its life suffering continuous operation for more than the 11 minutes it takes me to get to work each day.

Matt Cashmore, motorcyclist par excellence and social organiser set the route for he, Jamie and I to spend Saturday morning in the Victorian high country foothills, chasing the perfect toasted sandwich and loads of continuous well-cambered corners.

Here's Matt's Flickr slideshow, ending with us back in the city after nearly 300km and the discovery of what might be the perfect cheese, ham and tomato toastie at the Red Parrot cafe in Noojee - sitting by a roaring log fire after 90 minutes of chill winter air. It doesn't get much better than that.

For those about to rock ... Slabotomy at the Espy Hotel














Comedy gold as Vivek inducts me into the International Rock Guitar brotherhood (with Pete Townsend Windmill instruction) before we start the gig at the Espy hotel on Thursday 18 June, 2009.

More pics to come via Flickrfeeds. First up a set of pictures shot by Jamie Supple:
