...............so it will get even better!

Took the old girl out to the Gold Coast Hinterland, quite nice!
Stopped for breakfast and then a quick ride up the mountain and back home for 10am before it got too hot! Did 225km which isn't that bad!

The lads I went with said she was burning a bit of oil, I didn't smell it due to being in front all the time :lol:

I hate summer Piggy, just around 6-8 weeks that do my head in! Getting cooler of a night now which is good, won't be long before we might have to start shutting the windows at night :lol:

Come and join us, just means taking a gamble, you have to pack your job in, sell your house, leave all your friend and family and then move to the other side of the World!

Its worth it but even now I have a hankering for my old life in the UK and that's after nearly 12 years!

If I could support myself financially I would leave the UK in a flash, it's fast becoming a dumping ground for bad rubbish.

Mount Tamborine.

Great picture Vic, I presume it is Mount Tambourine. Last time I went up there was with the wifes family in a Hyundi i 20 hire car. We had to turn off the air con as it was sapping the pathetic power the car had every time we hit a steep bit. Mind you we had a boot full of cornish pasties for 15 people! The Lawson rep looks the biz by the way.

Hopefully up there again this Sunday but on the Aprilia, well that's if the rego come through! It's come up that it's got a stolen engine in it from a 1984 Suzuki, obviously this is a admin cock up! The dealer has finally managed to get some paperwork from the NSW Police via the previous seller that states this, the paperwork was dated 1999 but the restriction is still in the Victoria transport system, banged my head against the wall quite a few times this week!
