    Gosh, lekky problems ... who'd thunk it would happen with you? Sounds like those localities are the proverbial tourist traps!

    I guess next time ... take two cameras? Hmm looking at your photobucket, all those moving shots you took must have fragged your camera! Time to use the VIO set up I lent you?

    I do my weights most every day.....being old and gray....staying/getting in shape takes lots of effort...my mountain bike gets ridden less and less these days...maybe I need to get on that more than my 530???? Good advice though

    Have you heard of this pharse "Hardly Ablesons" for the other bikes in your group?
    Used that phrase actually... (but not around the bikes much... I have to sleep now and then)

    No, didn't go to the festival, as we're on our way to Sturgis...

    due to my recent crash, this project is now on hold. I should get it going again in about a month.

    Cool idea! Loved the game. I was looking around for something similar but was concerned about aerodynamics. Horrible winds here off the mountains. I'll follow your progress. Good luck.

    Back on the Interstate it was quite fun to be doing 125-130 indicated, covering good distances in excellent time. The excitement wore off however, and I started getting bored, which I know is a very bad thing indeed.
    Yeah we know about you and straight roads

    I’ve done some smart things in my life, like buying a BMW

    The loss of Crete was due to many oversights. In addition to Hargest's failure to order a counter-attack on the first night, the failure to station troops west of the Tavronitis River and the failure to mine Maleme's airstrip after the RAF fighters were evacuated were mortal blows.

    I would dearly love to visit Crete one day.

    Sounds like some fun and games you have been up to - I must confess, the highlights for me are you having to wake up early!

    or scooters are trendy amongst the 'London' crowd at the moment. Still its good fun booting some lawyer off one.

    Keep up the blogging!
    I think the buffet was $40-50 including the tour. Excellent value really.

    Nothing compared to Ken's bill, who paid the group... I don't think he got change from $1700

    The usual par for the course adventures you normally have then! Just as well you have a beemer with its gas tank for those roads, makes fuel management a lot less ... capricious!

    More laughing at your expense! Yes, was wondering if you would comment about CASH being carried! : Fancy that, running into kiwis in unexpected places! Good to see you got your moneys worth out the buffet (how much was it by the way?)

    Keep up the blogging!

    My my, waking up earlier than your room mate for once! Won't last for long I dare say! Good to see you are still falling afoul of the authorities just by being you!

    Ah, ok, not them then.

    They're like a woman in a shop, they can just smell the presence of a shop (deal) and gravitate to it

    Beautiful pics again. Always thought Glacier was cool. I need to tour your Islands to reciprocate. I'm working on it. Have a safe trip.
