Lithgow Iron Fest

Well the day was overcast , but a great turn out for the ride. We all met at Mc Donalds west bound on the m4, there were about 16 of us in total.
We set out down to Northern road, and travelled towards Richmond, we saw a car that never quite managed a 3 point turn, how the pole was staying upright i'll never know

We travelled up the Bells Line Road, Jenni & Marks first ever trip here, Jen shut her eyes on a few bends... All good.

We arrived at Lithgow all safe and sound, and after paying an entry fee of $10 to enter the show and shine bike comp, we all had our hands stamped and in we went..

the boys settled in to some serious shopping...

there were a mix of things happening, clowns, magicians, jousting people with their horses, but the highlight of the day was the chips on a stick.

We wandered around for a few hours, bumped into friends along the way, Saw some "different" things and people

we even found a Ulysses Garden Knome along the way

Some of us decided to leave the iron fest and make our way to little Hartley for a cuppa and late lunch

We made ourselves at home here for a while.

Lots of laughs, and story's of pot holes and the like along the way during the day !!!!

I can vouch for one !!! i am still feeling it

All in all in was a fun ride, My first time on the Bells Line Road, great fun, Great Friends (can i open my eyes now !! ?? hahaha)
