Sounds like good progress guys - really well done!
Owen - keep trying dude! It's an addiction and it will take time so don't be too hard on yourself. There's plenty of support happening in this thread - really awesome to see!
"litle isco" - sorry but who's the slowest on a ride???

I'd be lying if I didnt admit that the thought had crossed my mind bro
I did wake up rather early today with all good intentions, but the lack of mercury convinced me otherwise
Oh well ... theres always tomorrow

Good thinking on staying in bed, Richo.
I haven't been out on the bike before 7am in months.
Brrrrrrrrrrrrr. It was freezing this morning. There was ice on the car windshield.
Skins. Thermals. Balaclava. Neck warmer. Shirt. Hoodie. Leathers. Off I go...
HOLY CRAP - still got my vented summer gloves on!
It was like thousands of ninjas and pirates were having their final battle for supremacy under the skin of my fingers... Until they all died from hypothermia and left my hands numb and dead. Was fun braking and clutching with blocks of ice where my hands once were!

Hey guys, good to see it all going good, and for those who have fallen off the wagon (such as myself)

dust yaself off and try again.
I have just completed the move back to Qld, new job, new woman

after quite a long time, I know I am amazed too after the hell of the last one. I knew I would find a good one eventually
I rode the trusty olde 9R from melb, and it was friggin cold through NSW until the Qld border, dodging skippies and other misc' animals, trucks and caravans is always fun...not! It is such long boring ride taking the fastest way up, rather take an extra week and stay off the hwys and meet everyone on the way. But the bike was on an ureg permit and I was on a deadline so there was no option. There was always crating and freighting but that made too much sense
Fell short by 100kms for the farrider iron butt rider thing, damn i am sore.
So once the dust has settled I will set a new date, it will happen
