Yeah, isn't it. And being on Vimeo, better quality than most YouTubes. Looks like a fun event.

Great film, I'm excited about Noosa E'roica already. Hope the organisers see this.

Approx mid year, due to Noosa's busy shedule, had a mild clash with a running event & hillclimb last year, not that it was a worry to us.
But I believe the organisers are trying for a free weekend. Its a buzz, dont miss it if you have an interest in old bikes.

Found the Feb 21 blog entry a good read. He talks about the more delicate process of brazing in a single-builder environment, vs. a process line; and the extent of the heating required in the latter. Maybe one of a number of factors that make the diff on a bike from an individual builder.
