WTF do we get? sweet FA.
Now dont get me wrong I hate riding in the stuff, spent too many years riding in it as a courier....... But FMS we realy need some rain down here.
Rain aka water is becoming more expencive premium fuel.
Soon gold will be cheaper per ounce than water.

Hungry Jacks ,coffee , fuel up and head home to reality, got to move house as the owners want their seaside house back and the management thinks i should help with the spit & polish to get the bond back,
Ah well at least its not raining and the Bandit got a bath as well.

Post by: aussiebandit on February 25, 2008, 08:17:18 PM: Well, your Sunday was better than mine :annoy: I to got up early, for a Sunday anyway, but not for a ride, I had to go to work for a couple of hours, and no I don't get paid overtime.

It looks like the next ride I do won't be until the "Once Bitten Rally" - between work and a distinct lack of funds my riding has been serverly curtailed.

Good luck with the move, hope it goes/went well. Yes, moving from a rental property and cleaning, what a wonderfull way to spend a day or two, then again that's why God invented professional cleaners - yes I'm a lazy sonofabitch.
