    Dark days comin'

    Ah well, bye bye summer, hello winter, she's a starting, severe gales, heavy rain, icy squalls, hail, snow, thunderstorms etc... etc... 30 foot swells pounding the coasts, more to come, poor little NZ cops a hammering from the southern ocean while Oz sits basking in a high, looks like my scruffy road-grime covered XS might finally get some overdue downtime soon enough, new brakes, new seat cover and paint-job on the tank, keeping a motorbike up to scratch, never ending process eh!

          I'd offer my condolences, but winter is finally ending here. Tough

          been in the 70's all week and beautiful. Finally!! Even got both my bikes started and running yesterday, albeit badly. Shame on me for letting the carbs sit full for 5 months. Oh seafoam, where are you!!

              Cheer up, my friend. Like my mom used to say, "Things could be worse." So I cheered up and sure enough...
