I went out for a very quick run after a few adjustments and to keep the battery up. Was going along the Ringwood - Warrandyte Road at a very leisurely pace with a taxi in front of me. As we got to a section with a few bends, the taxi pulled over .........and let me past. I thought he was pulling off to stop, but once I went past he pulled back onto the road behind me. Ya don't see that too often!

There are really only two questions in life. 1.Which way do i go? 2.What is the lap record?
Whenever I receive a courteous gesture by another roaduser, I will always reciprocate with a very friendly wave. Do something stupid and I will give you the head shake of shame and swear at you as loud as I can!!!!
Oldies do this a lot as well, being courteous is a much forgotten trait. Always give them a big wave of thanks.
I did wave thanks. I thought that maybe if I wave, he may tell his mates and spread the news. Who knows, before too long everyone one will be letting us past.

Come to think of it, I did have the clear visor fitted to the helmet that day.
Obviously he couldn't stand to see the magnificent masculine visage (or maybe just hairy) in the rear view mirror, or perhaps he was of the other persuasion and wanted to check out my rear end!!

Ah, we can only dream
I had ten weeks of that in the UK ............ what a difference riding home from Botany, when I picked the bike up ...
I've spent over 40 years of my life riding bikes .... the rest of it, I wasted ..
If it's got wheels or tits, it's gonna give you trouble !
