Yawn, yawn!! Hi Sweety, is it time to get up, already. What a wonderful nights sleep, in a comfy bed that Karls feet don’t hang out the bottom of. Fluffy pillows and plush doonas and throws….feeling like royalty. Down to the dining room (said in a posh voice, please) for a lovely breakfast before going …

Surprise!!!! the sun is out…Yay!!! The pooches are sitting by our door waiting for us, for breakfast. We thank Mick for his hospitality and head on our way. The air is crisp, the sky cloudy but partially blue and the sun is shining down on us. Through Granya and then the climb through the Gap …

A reasonable nights sleep but woke to the sounds of rain splatting on the roof top. Look outside the door and…. Oh well, lucky we are on holidays. There was no letting up, each time you’d look out the door, it just bucketed 🙁 Not even the dogs were happy, they sat most of the …

Slept like a babe!! Karl, yeah not so much (he never sleeps well on the first night, but you’d never know by his snoring…ooops did I say that!). Woke up with a sore throat and a blocked nose…noooooooo! Not the way to start a holiday. Drugs – check and we get started on our day. …

Its 9:30 before we leave home, partly cos we had a sleep in but mainly because we were hoping the rain would stop….ha! Rained all the way out of Sydney, I was soaked…my gear is no longer waterproof 🙁 Fuel at Pheasants Nest and Karl takes a turn off at Marulan that takes us through …

I’m going for …

With Karl away for the weekend, and as a reward to myself I went off on a little ride on Dudley. I’d decided that heading south and Jamberoo was going to be the destination – I didn’t even program the GPS, thought I’d just wing it….OMG! Never been to Woronora Dam, passed the sign heaps …

……. born in SA in March 2015, a fine strapping babe he was too. Previously owned by a retired gentleman who in 6 months had his first service done and had put 2054 kms on the clock and decided he wanted something different and put him up for adoption. Searching the internet I spotted the …

This particular bike is the one that I have been most looking forward to ride. Since it came onto the market, it’s one that has always caught my eye and I’ve thought….hmmm I can see me on that (in white of course…lol). Other than the ride home of Saturday that’s all I managed to get …

The sun’s out and I’mma heading west, way out west, where the temperature increases by 5 degrees and the salesmen are human (well these were anyway). I was out testing riding again today. This time round I booked a ride on the Yamaha MT09-Tracer. The salesguy figured since I ride a Blackbird he could trust …
