Topless Through Riverfire - 29 Sep 12

Postby JBT » Fri Sep 28, 2012 5:47 pm

A run each way along the Riverside Expressway during the fireworks is a great way to enjoy some of Riverfire. Mrs JBT and I will be doing it again if it's not raining. http://goo.gl/maps/P5IOS

We'll have dinner at home and probably lurk in a holding pattern at Pound St http://goo.gl/maps/rL0Um until about 6:55 pm.

OK all, I'll post on here with a weather decision at around 6:00pm. Fingers crossed....UHF 15 if you have one.

Sorry mate, I went off the net after posting and thought you were going to be there much earlier. I assumed that you had changed your mind about coming. We departed at 6:55 as planned and were on the Captain Cook bridge at 7:00 but the Hornets were 5 minutes late :roll: . We did another two passes on the Riverside Expressway and then they finished the show early at 7:25 instead of the programmed 7:30. :roll: Still, we had two runs right through the middle of the fireworks. :mrgreen:

I didn't see the hornets but the fireworks were in progress as I traversed along Riverside expressway. I went as far as Park Road before it started raining and decided to head home.

Good video Minx. Why aren't those Police out there doing that during peak hour traffic to keep everything moving? :)
