Xmas Holiday Day 2 & 3
Day 2 continued…. It’s hard stuff this relaxing thing, so hard that I needed some retail therapy – Warriewood Centro was the chosen clinic!! Unsuccessful, I returned as Karl suspected I would – empty handed 🙁 Dinner at Cha Rice Noodle and a walk afterwards was the perfect way to make room for more yummies….lol …

Xmas Holiday
Holiday, did I just type “holiday”, wow what’s that? Usually for me, it involves hundreds of kays traveled upon my trusty motorcycle to places far & wide for the sheer pleasure of it. Sometimes staying in some beautiful places (country towns) where ah, the accommodation isn’t exactly 5 star (lucky to be a “star” sometimes…LOL). …

Riding Miss Daisy
Daisy is a country girl, born and raised in our Country & Western Region of Australia (partial to a little bit of Keith Urban, I believe). For her age – 14 (don’t tell her I told you she’s a bit sensitive) she’s in really good shape, I’d even go as far to say as …

Oxley….how many times?
ha ha ha…….as many times as you want!! that was Karl’s plan. This ride was Karl’s brain child in a small window of opportunity (these don’t come by very often). The seeds were sown and the lonely flower of the group did what she does best, booked some great accommodation while the thorns set about plotting a …

Ella-Jane’s Easter Camping 2013
Ella’s never been on a holiday, a real holiday (well except going to Nanny & Pa’s). Friends of ours Phill and Kim asked if we’d like to join them at Easter camping and they were taking their boy Ninja with them, so we thought it a great idea to take Ella-Jane away on her first …

It started 6 years ago, of which Karl and I have attended for 5 of them and met some wonderful folk that enjoy our past time of motorcycle riding. We have an international inclusion this year with …

Special K’s Camping Holiday 2013
Annual leave is booked but I have had my doubts that Karl & I would actually get away (the reason is a whole other story). Anyways, Saturday 29th Dec arvo rolls around and Karl says “guess what, we are going tomorrow”! YIPPEE!!! Oh no, I still have washing, ironing, packing and stuff to do. Frantic …

Carving up the Oxley 12
Prelude Weekend prior I purchased a Garmin Zumo 660 GPS, updating the Aldi GoPro I’d grown used to – very easy to use (read Kimmie proof here). So with another friend Phill headed to Breakfast Torque and then onto Robbo Pie Shop using the Zumo with the pre-programmed route I’d set. Well to say it …
