Tallangatta/Beechworth - May '04

Back to photo index

It was supposed to be a Sabey-led Ned Kelly History Tour. It wasn't.

Kermode and Kilborn had the map completely under control this trip - they were determined not to get lost this time. But Mike was able to point out to Ross his theory on why Ross had never leant to read ...
Buzz was thrilled that his mother had come to see him off. She even carried his bag to the train for him. That height gene is a strong one.
What with all the terrorist activity – the boys rigged up a little “tow behind a bike” protection system.
Now accustomed to Buzz’s “turns” on the weekend rides, the group now carry a stretcher at all times.
Rehearsals on how to stand Buzz up went very well…..
Until Mike got sick of carrying the stretcher and started playing dam busters.
Feeling fine Buzz found a new use for his stretcher – however it did take an hour to unbog his bike.
While Buzz entertained the locals about his “extensive river crossing story,” Mike was keen to find out how Ross kept his fleece top so “soft and furry.”
Foster has so much gold in his teeth, his face was automatically magnetised to this sign.
The great white leader was pointing skyward, shouting about his theory that a Meteor was about to hit Beechworth, when all of a sudden…….
... the poor bastard was buried with a direct hit. As you can see the rescue attempts were frantic. We did leave flowers though.
Buzz hailed his patented “anti numb-bum device” a huge success.
