			<description><![CDATA[ I hope you have better luck with your lights than I&#39;m having Davo. Had a rock through the headlight two weekends back, plus snapped one of the new Narva
Compac 100 driving light brackets. Ordered a new BMW headlight lens (two piece light) and the package got lost in Canberra. Turned up a few days later. That
was the good news.

The bad news - The headlight lens was in several bits inside the padded bag! Had a new one express ordered that arrived ok. Autobarn replaced the snapped... ]]></description>

I was looking at the Aussie Motolight distributor at the Melb Expo this weekend (their stand was opposite ours) and they were doing packages for $477/set to
suit what an individual wanted. How does that compare? ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Changes I have made to my prep and gear:
<br>
<br>
Because of the economy and the aud/usd rates I have had to make some compromises.
<br>
<br>
Lights:
<br>
I had been going to get some PHID&#39;s but at $600 usd these are now out.
<br>
I had done research on HID upgrades to the stock lights but have gone against that mainly because of what would happen should these fail. Stock lights are easy
to replace a globe.
<br>
I am now looking at doing a HID conversion to my Hella FF50&#39;s which on... ]]></description>

But Farriders would now seem to be a snow ball and we all thank you for starting it and keeping the flame alight.

Good to hear Wayne has put his hand up for this one.

I have been out of the saddle for over 5 weeks now as I have been restoring a boat. Only been out for a few short runs.

<br>
Be a good sized crew there. I know you are only joking but I think I have said this to many FarRiders.
<br>
I don&#39;t do FarRides for myself, although the extra rides are good for my training. I do them to see the huge smiles on all your faces and the excitement
that comes from riders finding out they CAN do these longer rides. I do them because there was obviously a need, the number of riders that have done and are
doing these rides plus... ]]></description>
