Zed Zoo and other distractions ... pix >>> Wow, what a great weekend. Ihave a lot of group shots on my camera, so I'll give you the others .......On saturday afternoon about 20 of us headed off to Western Plains Zoo at Dubbo, which was a 60km mini-cruise in itself. Some of the sights we encountered were:I figure this bloke had to be Chewy - all he was doing was chewing apples I.

In the meantime, I'm off to Africa to find me a lion hairball .

Tell us that's not your new Z, Lou! Oh yeah, Pat (ltd) and myself were also on wheels, trying to leave rubber everywhere under brakes. Pat got a better drift action going than I did, but I reckon I got longest skid.

This one was identified as Zeddus Queenslandii.

Some nice vehicles in this lot, 1 in particular catches my eye :YD.

Maybe, but it sure helped keep the paintwork a locust free zone. Almost. Jeez, it's awhile since my Z had that much tape on it :-0.

We all cruised home comfortably with the nearest thing to an incident being where Jack and I got breathalysed, and the other 8 all pulled into a servo. The rozzers then promptly abandoned shifted station, to get a better view of course!

You guys may have had better cars but... I had the better bike. I had to have the upper hand with something over the weekend. I did learn pretty quickly not to ride behind you or Pat with your spontaneous lock-ups.
