Mid Nord Coast.... happenings

Post by Rooster »

Been a bit slack and don't really post on the forums but thought i should change that.
Queenslanders seem to be pumping out some nice rides and definately happening down sud so will try and fly the flag for the middle.
Will try and start some build threads also. Cheers hopefully a few more mid nord coasters will add.

Thanks for the comments guys.
Jbomb yeah Dion had been around when he's home.And yes Macca's panel is really nice!
I work away and only get home for 4 weeks a year so makes it hard.
The panel is nearly there.
Split-P yes your right she had a good home down your way for a few months and was well looked after.
Will try and throw a few more pics up soon.
