One way ticket
« on: August 07, 2015, 06:54:30 PM »
Had a nice train ride up to Taree yesterday looking out the window at this great land ..had roast chicken and a glass of wine from the Buffett car for lunch ....enjoyed a great dinner at the Aquatic club but just half a carafe as I was riding today
Rode home today on a very nice 2007 ST1300 , it's in the shed getting used to a cool Canberra night
Previous owner was ridden on member Bluehonda(Brad) This is a lovely bike and look forward to many rides

Happy to hear that it has gone to a good home. I had been eyeing that one and two other blueys, trying to see how I can broach the subject with the wife

You tell her it will make you a better person by being your therapy source.
Mention it has resale value, but you can't get your money back from a psychiatrist.    :thumbs

Congrats Chops,

Saw that STeed at Ebor acupla years back and helped Brad & Karen defrost it in the morning coz they forgot their bike cover. So Canberra nights will b no problemos. A very nice STeed indeed. Happy riding.

You've got the right idea- can't see you sitting around home much until the novelty wears off.

Be warned.
It never wears off!    ;-*

This great bike has been sold to a member and a short ride for a few hours has seen it delivered on Friday
I'm currently punting around a KLR650 and enjoying the "rough roads" that are common in NSW
