Adventure/Dual Purpose Bikes

Back in Dunners today, chokeing my way down Cavvie Valley Rd and noticed the postie blatting down the lefthand footpath at a fair pace from mail box to mailbox, faster than I was going! Honda 110 I guess, I couldn't actually see it because of the panniers and mail bag. Rough drive ways and lumpy ashphalt this rider was a pro. Doen't know how she/he held onto the next group of letters to deliver. Green dayglo jacket pro motorcycle rider. Go for it. The mail must get through. Good on ya! ...

Stuck a quick write up into the gear rthread about my new 'Ear Moulds'. Felt good!
Been a member of 'AA' (the car one) so long they give me a 10% discount! Some of their policies do piss me off!
Twelve months ago they were bagging bikes as a dangerous nusiance on the road. Today they are giving away Piaggio scooters in their loyalty card give away system. Pity I still need their road side services from time to time.
frost about does make one catious on the daily commute! Cheers. ...

Quick trip through to Dunners in Mary's CRV. Few bikes on the road. Noted a cruiser coming off the Sthn motorway at Green Island with the wind blowing up his trousers! Shoes, not boots. With the bent leg seating position a fair bit of skin was exposed. Wouldn't like to travel that way myself. Very sunny, but cold and promising a frost by 3.30pm! Cheers.

After the mild, wet Brass Monkey last weekend the Vstrom's sulking in the garge and the snows only half melted off the deck. No riding today, didn't even ride the scooter to work yesterday. Snow and black ice makes this one of the four days on average I don't ride to work! With three weeks before I head of for two weeks of work related riding in Aussie I'm washing the riding gear and stocking up the yunka to get things dried. Hiring a Trans Alp in Sydney and enjoying the process of planning what ...

Ahh, the cub. These bikes are all over the place here. Not quite so common for pizza delivery (those 3 wheel 'bikes' are mostly used for that) but for anything else it's often a cub - mail, newspapers, ramen, sushi... this is one that I snapped on my way to get my lunch (no, not sushi) today. It's looking particularly rusty in the carry-rack area but still does the job.
Actually now that I think about it, it's odd that cubs are barely used ...

Hell, only a couple of days to go before we head off on a 1500 odd kms cruise down the country. Its the first really long ride this bike has had, Ive just run up 2000kms from new, nicely run in and she is performing sweet.
Pannieirs are all loaded with warm liners tops and bottoms, Tool kits are checked and coorect, puncture kit, tyre gauge etc all crammed into the small compartment. Blast the new packrack tray (read expensive piece of chrome) aint arrived in the country yet so have had ...
