This time next week, I should have my gear all packed and be almost heading to bed for an early one.
Hoping to get a new front tire over the weekend.
Looking forward to this one, and it is kinda a short week for us with having Wednesday off the work.

Where in Newport did you work - lived there for quite a few years.

Was that your orange triumph huricane We saw parked up in mitre 10 a few weeks ago? Can't be many like that arround - very nice. The wifey was admiring it (she currently rides a bonneville).

Yeah, that was moi! I'm a user (and an abuser). I can't remember where exactly in Newport, but I remembered I worked in Hirwain as well. Have you met a regular Rallygoer "Spike" from Ashburton? and a Harley man, He's also from Wales. Will you be coming to Beaumont Rally next weekend?

Looks like Monday, just in time to get on this ambo ride on Wednesday. Of which I "hope" to attend......

magically of course!
