Don't know how I missed this. Nice to see that "get-togethers" happen world-wide.

Wish I were there!!

Thanks for posting that Trip.... They are great pictures, and it was exhilarating to see that many Nomads together. I haven't seen that many at a dealership :) Thumbs up to the boys down under.

Have we heard anything from our Aussie brethren lately? Those wild fires are being called the worst disaster the country has ever experienced, I'm sure some of them have some stories/

I checked into the VROC Australian site, and there's no word spoken about it there, but it's a big country and while any loss of life is significant, it may not have affected any brothers. Very sad to hear though...

All Victorian Kawanow member's are OK one of our guy's is fighting the fires but the rest of us
are all good,we mostly live closer to the city so reasonably safe from the fires harm.Thanks for the concern it is as you can imagine a very sad time for us all over here.

That's really cool to see... Looks like my black nomad will fit in well when I get back (if I get back...)

There are some great roads for touring in Australia if you ever get there... just remember to keep LEFT !

I looked like a great get together. Would love to see Australia some day. The wife talks about it a lot. My parents spent 6 weeks there and 2 weeks in NZ and almost stayed!
Finky, the bike in your signature pic behind the Nomad, Is that a stock 1500 - 1600 Classic?
