Was out around Aberfeldy today in the Toyota and had to stop to let a vehicle going the other way get past on a narrow section of road,  wound the window down to find out if there were any other vehicles behind him and driving the vehicle was Wes Boswell who some longer serving members may remember. He said he was no longer riding due to an accident he had in the desert some time back. He was at Aberfeldy to scatter his father's ashes and he now lives in Ballarat. 
Wes was a bit of a legend one year at a HCR when he drove from Bairnsdale to Abbeyard with his XR 600 in bits in the back of his Pajero due to having no trailer and reassembling the bike at Abbeyard to ride the HCR.

Always great to catch up with people.  I saw him in hospital, the accident had shaken him up considerably.   Hope you passed on our regards.

Wes was and is a good bloke. 

Great rider and jovial company.
It's just more time to be flat out!

That XR looked like a wreck in the back of his car.

Still can't believe he put it together and rode it all weekend!
