The MotoExpo at Homebush was a rager and was chocka for the whole three days.
We got to meet a heap of adventure riders from all over the world and all over Australia, and we even saw a few celebrities and familiar faces.
Triumph’s Cliff Stovall was on hand with some gorgeous new models and the awesome Salt Lake Racer.

Andy Strapz and the editor wrestled over a discount deal.
Janice and Greg Jansen of Rocky Creek Designs had some great new products as well as all their usual range. This pair never stop smiling.
Suzuki’s Lewis Croft was going flat out.

It’s Kerli in a whirly!

These days Pete Goddard imports Oset electric trials bikes. We remember when he raced MotoGP for Suzuki, World Supers for Aprilia, and was a world champion road-race enduro rider. A top bloke.
Robbie Maddison was roaming around. Another top bloke!
Ducati made a typically sexy and stunning entry into the adventure-bike market with its new 1200 Multistrada Enduro. The bike was flown in from its release at the EICMA show in Europe just a few days before. We SO want one!
Darren Wilson, producer of the KTM700 HARD kits on the left, seemed to be doing whispered deals with Toby Price (centre). Touratech’s Robin Box was paying close attention.
