This group off gentlemen are still Boiling the Billy, however at a new location in Ann Street previously they were at EXPO 88.

This B-Double was parked on the side of the Warrego Hwy with these beautiful Palm tree. This B-Double is capable of carrying 70metric tonnes and I would estimate these two palms would go close.

High Powered Ocean Equiptment.


Took the shots of this ocean race after it had been out on engine trails.What is it with people with boats that after the load the boat,they have to have a couple off beers before they hit the" ROAD". I would think that when you are towing such an expensive piece of equiptment you would want to have a clear mind. Posted by Picasa

Wrong side of the Barrier.


Well the first day on the South/East run and I came across this Nissan Skyline parked in this great free parking space.He managed to miss a power pole which is approximately 20 feet to the rear of the vehicle. As you can see no rego plates, as they have been removed by the police, who if they had the numbers could have prevented this incident and this clown would not have been on the roadPosted by Picasa
