Get out the violins...

I did the Pauanui - Thames thing today, in the cage, with dog and MadBikeBabe... Now, the thing about some dogs and chicks is that they get motion sickness on winding roads - especially if you try any Possum Bourne impersonations...

So, doing UNDER the speed limit on some of my very favoured Coro loop roads, following the car in front, I watched bike after bike wiz by, some cruisers, and the occasional litre sprots bike...

What a most fucking excellent day to be alive, and to be on a bike enjoying the sun and the road - even betterer.

There is always tomorrow!

Went riding yesterday in the mountains of SEQ (South East Qld) where the temp is 5 deg cooler, but still hard to take in the high 30's.

Its another perfect day today, but we're off to a movie (Air Cond) and will ride this evening.

Have to stay near built up areas cos of Kangaroos that love to ambush bikes..

we all suffer my friend....but if it don't kill ya....it only makes you stronger!!!

I feel your pain MBB... Was driving the four-wheeled Honda over Takaka hill today with Mrs hang0ver. Combination of last nights drinking + VTEC power + my 'Solberg' driving = Having to stop every 3-4 corners for her to charge into the bushes and discharge the motion sickness. It was like that all the way down...

Go New Years hangover's!

Interesting, the temp reads as 30 in our dining room at the moment. Hot day. Happy new years to you and Mom!

Drink more fluids, you sound dehydrated...
