Looking back USA

After I flew the bike to South America and got it shipped to Texas I realised I had the bug. It was not the bike  that was the meat s.

So off the US.
Started in Texas and rode to New Orleans and up the Mississippi, then via the Smokey Mountains to New York, Boston  to Canafa down the Hudson across to the Lakes then Minneapolis to the Bad Lands Calgary  to the coast and down thru Death Valley Grand Canyon Big Bend and back to San Antonio.
I still like that city.
And I was then incureable.

So much so that when Hank said he and some mates were riding to Panama, how could I resist?
That was a great introduction to another ancient society.

Must be able to find a couple of good pictures to post.

Boats

 I sure am stupid  I had a beautiful boat Dolphin V in Auckland  Missed my boat so shipped Adagio to GC where I wasted another $25,000 on upgrades and she is still not got to go boating because “someone” fucked the interior. Left a bloody shambles.  So while I waited I bought Dreamcatcher, that needed new electronics as I don’t know my way round. Well that was a disaster..    she set herself on fire twice or more … .INCOMPETENT TRADESMEN. , but that I find is normal here in Au no one gives a fuck ….i did the work just pay my bill you jerk !  I did the work just pay your bill …..should be on the goat of arms !  Ha ha.

Big ride Qld to Sydney

Left Main Beach late Saturday after loosing a darned credit card which I discovered stuck to the bottom of my iPad , So Beaudesert for a cup of tea and as dusk set in and dead Roos lined the road I slowed. I finally made Stanthorpe a small town on the Qld border. No rain s For 18 months the man said, it was minus 5 and no frost because there was no moisture. Well would you believe it the next morning light 4ain that followed me half the day. Very unpleasant riding but a delightful countryside. So on I went stopping for a tank of gas and a coffee. My favourite Shell station provided both. And on and on and on as it got bloody cold and I crossed the Great Dividing Range again. Places like Armidale and Tamworth and past the Blue Heeler statue that I missed in the dark. Pleased to arrive in Constitution Hill. 850 kms and about 10 hours. Bike went well. Enjoyed the ride despite the adverse conditions..

Qantas

Beware of these people ! They have instructed the staff at the redundant screening into Sydney airport to steal Swiss Cards from travellers. Nothing better to do since there is no actual threat to anyone they are making their own CRISIS ! And should you unhappily have had a joint replacement then you are automatically under suspicion. That means removing a great deal more clothing including watches , REDICULOUS !!!!
