I'm Baaaack!...
Muthuh,
In 2000 you put one of my bike journals on you website. As well as being personally gratifying it also opened your website up to a lot of my aussie bike riding mates. While we mainly ride sports and sports/tourers, we share your views on being away, have a brew at the many favourite pubs we have found and getting on the road generally.
I have written many journals over the years that I will not bore you with as yours are much better reading! Had a break off the bike during 2004 after colleague and his wife were hit and fatally injured by a fuck wit in a metal cage (on a clear day, 50 miles from anywhere at 8 in the morning).
Wife decided that I was more enjoyable on a bike than off so I am about to get back on.
Point of the message is that I read my journal and many of yours on the website this evening and it bought back all the good things about being out in the country, with a couple of mates, a few beers, a good red wine (no we are not prostate inspectors, but in Aussie we all enjoy a good red) and the time on the bike.
Never stopped reading the stories so keep it up and thanks for helping me get back on after all its not the destination, its the ride!
