On Sunday morning fourteen bikes left Ballarat and headed for Colac, when we arrived another four from Geelong also arrived , there were other bikes from Colac there as well .
Malcolm and Christine had a spot for us all to put our machines on display for the public to view. As we walked around there was plenty for us to see , a shed full of classis and vintage cars, and outside many displays to view, sheep shearing , stationary engines , tractors etc, also a tractor pull was in constant action and it was interesting to watch some of the old single cylinder bull dogs etc, the torque they could develop and how low the rev’s would go before the operator would throw the clutch , you could practically count the revs .One thing that was of interest and great skill was a whip cracker ,he made it look so easy ,but I would say a lot of practice went into it . Apart from it being quite hot inside the showgrounds a good day was had, except for the man with the espresso coffee van I think the ice cream man was well out selling him!! .It was also good to see Wayne Killingsworth made the effort and came from Melbourne , perhaps some more next year ??.
About 3 pm we headed of back to Ballarat stopping at Rokewood for an ice cream and a cold drink , all that attended said they enjoyed the day and it was good to be able to give a little support to the “Wilsons” who had a hand in organising the event, well done ...Burger
