    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Yesterday The Dirty Old Pig clocked up 300,000ks.Saturday was my grandsons 3rd birthday and by chance The Nitro Circus stunt team was performing in Coffs Harbour that afternoon so his birthday present was a no brainer.If the Nitro Circus comes to a town near you make sure you go and have a look because it's so much more than just stunts.When the young bloke in the wheelchair is sitting at the top of a 40 foot jump while they tell you his story and show you some of his crashes it brings a lump to the throat.He is an amazing man.I left home at 6am Friday and rode 1,200ks non stop and arrived at Coffs just in time to put my grandkids to bed.I left Coffs Monday morning and halfway down The Putty Road,one of OZ's best bike roads,The Pig clocked up the 27,300ks needed to add to the 272,700ks it had when I rewound the speedo during it's rebuild.Just as I had taken my speedo photo a bike pulled up to see if I needed a hand.I did and so Dave from Dallas,Texas took my photo.He was an interesting bloke."So what's a Yank doing on The Putty Road.Holidays?""No,I've been living in OZ farrr tooo looong.""What's a Yank doing riding a Yamaha.My 2 Harleys have been stolen so I bought a Yamaha Royal Star and I can leave the keys in it and no one even touches it!"2,700ks,3 days riding,grandkids,my son and daughter in law,the Nitro Circus and some of OZ's best roads.The Pig is now resting,awaiting his next adventure.

Simon now that I've got grandkids TDOP will never get further north than Coffs.My son spent 6 months in Cairns living at Trinity Beach.Lots of great riding but are the roads ever empty?

I think the Pig would love it up this way .

Cheers , Simon .
