I'm in Killara. Work in Ultimo and commute on the GS most days.
Wherever you may be, there you are.

Zookmang

Oh cool, Killara isn't far from my dad's house. Fairfield is a ways though, and last time i was around Fairfield i almost got squished by an angry man in a camry! haha

Some say that he submitted a $20000 expense claim for some gravel

And that if he'd write a letter of condolance he would at least spell your name right.

Hi there, I'm from Chatswood and I've just got my L's and a 2013 GS500F.

Zookmang

Hey there jolt, welcome! :) Do many kms on your bike or just ride it for fun?

jolt77

Home in Chatswood to work in North Sydney a couple of days a week and otherwise just for fun really.

I did go for my first long ride on Saturday night ... Chatswood - Galston Gorge - Wiseman's Ferry - Peats Ridge - Brooklyn - Hornsby - Chatswood. Just short of a 200km round trip and it took me about four hours, lots of fun.

Zookmang

Nice! I used to live in wiseman's ferry, and in chatswood strangely enough. The ride from wiseman's to calga is the best part I reckon.

Agreed and max posted speed limit is 90 so it's a perfect run for an L plater.

Dodgy iPhone photo while waiting for the ferry attached ...

Yeah that's a plus for sure. Although enforcement is pretty low anyway.
