        There are actually a lot of such boards all around South Australia. The first time I saw this I couldnt understand what it actually meant. I connected ity with the Queensland boards of not driving fatigued, and hence creeping at slow speed to to drowsiness. However, this actually meant to ask you not to creep over the legal speed limit as it reduces your chances of a surviving a panic situation on road amongst other things. More on this campaign here: Stop Creeping Over the Limit | The Inspiration Room


        Up, Up and Away! Shot at sunrise in the mist yesterday on the 1234.5 kms ride!


        JUST FOR FUN: Shot In Perth: When Arnie Gets mugged, he is not giving away his Diavel so easily... (Disclaimer : both are scale models).

        Not a bad day to ride to Adelaide Hills!


        You need parking for your bikes, they need for their yachts, it's a tough life!


        In Hahndorf, the oldest German town in Oz with Praveen .


        Adelaide hills!


        A big Thanks to Ducati Owners Club of South Australia for the wonderful and warm welcome. The true Ducati family spirit shines through. Special thanks to Michael and Mick for arranging everything! The red hearts of gold!


        This crate holds back one of the finest motorcycles ever made. I had never seen a new one like this waiting to be unleashed!

              Kangaroo Island lives up to its name! Never seen so many Kangaroos going hopping across and wallabies playing on the road side. Truly an amazing place! Couldnt catch one really up close though, but a gentleman is just crossing the road behind the bike if you see...


              4D. Early morning ride with Ducati Owners Club of South Australia from Adelaide towards Cape Jervis. Thanks again to everyone!


              Sometimes the vivid cartoon movies and its locations do come true. This location was somewhere in Adelaide Hills and it was raining, even then I did risk my camera and took a few shots. This is one of them.


              Remarkable Rocks!


              Remarkable! Alright!


              Kangaroo Island was wonderful for me. I did 300+ kms of this seemingly small island and saw some great vistas. The roads were phenomenally devoid of vehicular traffic, it seemed even more sparse than the northern outback! The whole setting seemed like a racetrack with winding roads and amazing coastal scenery. If they want they could well arrange a Kangaroo Island TT for 250CC bikes here!


              As a traveller I wish of a land which is undiscovered and has things never seen. Perhaps a couple of generations hence would be able to ride on alien worlds. For the time being a virtual one should suffice. This photo was taken today morning in Kangaroo Island while approaching the Remarkable Rocks. The dragons were made by me in 3D Studio MAX 8 years ago. The castle has been taken from mysticmorning's deviantart page. Edited and composed in Photoshop. Everything except these two elements is real!


              Hello! Somewhere near Cape Jervis


              Waiting for my personal copter!


              And that's a SQUARE lighthouse!

                The third pic from top "Just Paint Me A dream" is now on my Desktop. Just out of this world. Amazing. Feeling envious, Wish I could be there in my lifetime.

                    Weather wasted all this!


                    Lining up to see my Multistrada, Kookaburras are not innocent as they look. They are from the Kingfisher family and are known to eat young of other birds. They also have a characteristic call which sounds like a loud human laughter.
