In the shed
1999 ST1100A
1971 CB750K2
1980 XV750
1977 GL1000
FR#720
CMRCWA #133
York,WA

So at what age does this "old enough to know better" kick in?
I believe in the "hereafter", every time I go to the shed I have to think "what am I here after"

Wow!  Now that's a Trumpy!
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

yeah, big to sit on...I'm hoping the next time we are going for a ride we can swap for a bit...but he might not give my ST1100 back though, lol. How have you fared with the weather over your way? No damage or injuries i hope? Thinking and praying for you all from here in W.A.

No damage, loss or injuries to me or anyone I know. 
Way too many people lost homes, with many more severely affected by rising and intruding water. 
Major crop losses.  Many businesses heavily damaged. Tonight they've just put a billion dollars on the cost.
Only one death in QLD, a road accident attributed to the cyclonic conditions.
