Oh handbands. I am sick of tyrek wristbands that you cannot take home and show your family. kids or envy college, and certainly fellow RX-8 drivers.

All drivers will have one for FREE! Don't miss out!

Long term rainfall forcast

Lesser events are likely about 15-16 September and 06-08 October. A rain event moving in from the north is possible about 07-08 October.

Don't trust them

Goulburn hadn't seen rain for so long that they were only allowed one dunny flush per household per day.

Guess when it rained?

I only been to a rainy Winton once and it was in April.... I don't think it will rain. Benalla is very dry in Oct.

Edit: If you look at the table (link above), and talk to any local in Benalla. They will be VERY HAPPY with the pattern. I think even some of those HIGH boxes will not have any drizzle. I think it will be white for 6th Oct. Watch this space ^^

Well, I had the suspension checked over and got a wheel alignment, etc done today.

The Revolvermobile is all ready for Winton. All it needs is the lump of blood and bone behind the wheel to do its job, lol.
