• Ciao Guest, The owner of this website and GTMotoCycles.com lost his home completely on the morning of January 8th in the L.A. Wildfire Storm. Most of his neighborhood is gone, and a few friends were killed along with their pets. The GTM SHOP and STORE are functioning normally, but we DEMAND EXTREME PATIENCE on orders as we are a SMALL business and Todd usually has his hands on nearly every order before it goes out. You can find more info on a post named L.A. Wildfires in the USA section. Our heart and best go out to everyone in this horrific disaster.

Trips & Pics

I'd like to turn my Cali into a tourer or cafe racer but second hand parts seem almost impossible to find here in Australia.
 
The motorcycle on the left, if properly cared for, will be running many years after the one on the right has since died. She’s already much older now. 👍

Good choice! Looks wonderfully warm and such a beautiful sky! (It’s winter here now 🤮)
 
Great pics, thanks for posting.
Looks like you got some rain, I've been to Tassie 3 times on the bike, poured rain every time😄.
 
Hi Motobazzi , like you we've been to Tassie three time now on the bike, the trip last week saw us do close on 3500k's on the Isle , the bulk of which weren't on roads we've done before.
In terms of rain , its a given every time the wife & I go away it rains.. Hence my mates call me "the storm chaser", or "drought buster".. next planned weekend away is ANZAC weekend on the MGCoV ( Moto Guzzi Club of Victoria) ride to Corryong . If your planning to come along , bring your wet weather gear:)
 
Andrew2 , if you make it to the Corryong weekend don't forget I owe you a beer.

I have a very similar history when it comes to riding in the rain, a number of friends gave up riding with me for that reason. Also known as the drought buster, friends thought they could have a lucrative business renting me out to farmers, all it would take is one ride by from me.
 
A few mates and I went for a little trip today starting at Batemans Bay heading south to Narooma for a coffee stop then to the Tathra pub, via the Bermagui -Tathra road, for lunch. After lunch we headed to the Dromedary hotel in Tilba for a quick beverage then back home to Batemans Bay.
I didn't get a shot of the bikes at the Tathra pub (apart from on the rear carpark 😭) as the parking spots out the front were all taken. I got one at the Dromedary hotel, which is a grouse little pub.

Great trip Steve, I'm familiar with those roads and your choice of stops 👍
