Ride leader Peter Arday
I thought it was my turn to write the ride report just to show I am more than just a good looking companion.

As you can see we are waiting for the human participants to arrive.
I have taken the ready pose to start our journey and am only waiting for my Chauffeur to start my module’s operating vehicle.
We
arrived at the Goulburn Waterworks Museum with the temperature
decreasing and showers wetting my module. Luckily my jacket and warm fur
coat kept me dry.
In the Museum car park we inspected other bikes and an array of vintage cars on parade.
Then
the riders went inside to inspect the working steam driven engines
which they say delivers water to my bowl but I do not believe them as I
live in Canberra.
The
human participants sat around eating, drinking and chatting while the
showers persisted. Surprisingly the ride leader suggested a short ride
to Gunning where they could enjoy a sit down lunch at the Hume Café as
the Waterworks café was too busy to cater for us.
Yes,
even the photographer stuffed up by dropping his wife’s camera on the
way to Gunning. I had a laugh at the thought of him losing his head once
he got home from a simple accident. But as you can see the camera still
works even after bouncing along the road at a hundred kilometres an
hour.
Thank
you to the human participants and my chauffeur for helping me to escape
from my back yard restraints for another entertaining excursion.
Thanks Peter for another great ride.

Don’t tell the chauffeur, who is my best friend that I wrote this because he doesn’t like me using his computer
