Honda CT110 High Country Adventure/Part 3
One year ago in September 2022, we took these postie bikes from the southern tip to the northern tip of mainland Australia and we raised over $20,000 for Bowel Cancer Australia. We decided to mark the anniversary of that ride, by joining together yet again for another postie ride.
Join us as we take our three Honda CT110 motorcycles on a 1200km camping trip through the Victorian High Country.
In part 3 we leave Myrtleford and take the backroads to Mansfield riding through some of the best scenery so far on this trip. From Mansfield we wind our way along the Goulburn River to the mining town of Woods Point where we set up camp before heading towards home.
as always, I hope you enjoy the video and please feel free to leave a comment:)

    Great work guys. Love the videos. Having just got myself a postie I'm super impressed at the mission you undertook, and that it's in the name of a great cause. I've done many 1000s of KMs corrugation on 4 wheels, I can only imagine how your spines feel on two! Oh, and you should add the gofundme link to the descriptions of all your videos :)

    great diagnostics. For the solution explanation I am still not clear why the stand would have caused the issue. I mean, being bent just meant the kill switch there wouldn't work propely when on kick stand, not when it is not engaged, unless when you straightened it you actually restore the connectivity through it when not on kick stand. I hope I explained it correctly.

    • @nortz17
      @nortz17 3 місяці тому

      The switch works in reverse, when the stand is down it opens the circuit to the solenoid not allowing the bike to start. Once I aligned the stand to the switch and the stand was able do make contact with the switch it closed the circuit allowing it to start. The switch is a standalone safety feature that prevents the operator from riding with the stand down, and is separate from the kill switch. I hope that makes sense. Kind regards and thanks for watching.

I lost my sister to a brain tumour on the 16th of January 2016 and the pain never leaves you. You just learn to try and live with it to be able to make people aware of bowel cancer is a great thing so many people get sent the government testing kits and ignore them until it’s too late. I’m not saying that’s what your brother Mat did but so many people do especially blokes. You all take care and thanks again it’s one of the best things I’ve seen in years. Rod Stowe

    I just found this series today. It's awesome. I'm so sorry about your brother's death from that horrible disease. You and your brother and mate are true warriors of compassion and humanity. I will watch all your videos with joy and admiration. Cheers from Canada
