    Oh I get it. A bit of amateur footage is what your looking for...

    Good point. We will do the same thing this weekend but she needs to use the bicycle pump at the same time. I will video it so she can improve her technique.

    ...the silliest thing I have done this week was get so busy with an emergency job that I forgot to take/eat lunch or have my emergency shit for such times...result was getting sluggish and tired, trying to find some food in rush hour traffic with a trailer with 200 meters of timber on it, fairly much an impossibility...got home , fell over...hypoglycemic state and my wife found me just as neverland approached...all cool now, but on reflection, it was a bloody silly thing to do...

    Petit Mal. I used to run myself to a stub. Big hours of physical work, constant mental agility and concentration, no food. Coffee and fags. Don't do it.

    I blacked out a couple of times to learn this. Try to stand up and the lights go out. Boom. No fuel.

    Any food is better than no food. Nothing trumps feeding the machine. Everything else in your life diminishes if you diminish physically.

    Soz, your post struck a chord with me.

    Believed that a job that's been on/off/on/off for a couple of years was actually on, and spent time organising shit to make it happen, only to find that it's off again, but may be on again shortly, maybe......

    Fuck Invercargill, I'n sick of the place, and that's without being sent there on a mystery escape.

    Those expensive Lifeproof cases and Apple Iphones are pretty tough.
    I had this brilliant idea to try and video a bit of back road riding, I thought (maybe I didnt) that tucking my phone down into my googles that are sitting on my helmet would be solid as.
    A few things I need to work on, first make sure it can actually see the road when recording, secondly make sure it cant learn to fly and finally maybe get a go pro or something.

    Sorry I don't know how to put the short video on here.

    What the camera didn't show was the 30-40mins wasted trying to find it in the long grass, in the unedited clip you can hear some silly old bugger riding up and down the road, I am sure he is uttering foul language.

    The silliest thing I did this week was bring back from the swap meet the boat anchor I took there - GS650G engine. If I'd had any sense I'd have left it there and denied all knowledge. Now it's strip it and off to the scrap merchant....
