Went to sleep too early, up too early. FB stuffed up and refused my hiking poles as medical devices, :mad: and the Gumtree ad attracted a pretty good scam attempt which I reported. Put the poles up as Trekking Poles and FB accepted it. :rolleyes: Heading out shortly up the Gillies for ride...

My reliable little Oxford magnetic tank bag has gone on to other adventures around the world and I've got a few more Hungry Jack deals in my wallet. Experienced rider is off to India, Thailand. Picking up an RE 350. Raining today so reading and listening to Folk music. Gradually turning unused...

Watching Noraly in Yemen a good atmosphere match to listening to Audible book of Lawrence of Arabia autobiography Seven Pillars of Wisdom. Try to get another ride today as weekend looking wet but also some forecast for today. Just lovely dry ( for here ) 25c at 3am.

Four triples in a row :giggle: and my PayPal disputes granted in my favour. Got in a short ride today, dropped off the heart monitor bag that I forgot yesterday, picked up my camera and some loot I'd left with riding buddy and scored a double Jr Whopper on Hungry Jacks Shake n Win. Tried to get...

Why ever would you do such a cruise. Boring open ocean. By all means do a cruise around New Zealand with lots of stops. https://www.adventure-life.com/new-zealand Australia too big for cruising. You need 3 weeks minimum for Australia hot spots and that's by plane. It's nearly the size of the...

Slept okay with the heart harness on and nailed Wordle gusty days coming up but very rideable with the lower temps Rain coming on the weekend but should get some saddle time in and do need to fetch my camera from buddy. No dental or medical til next month....can use the break. Will see how...

Had intended lunch with friend but he cancelled so napped morning/midday away. All harnessed up with heart sensors for 24 hours. Might watch some late night TV as may be tricky to sleep with the wires. Marc has picked up a cute motovlogger from Turkey ...years on the road and more to come she...

Hard earned 3. Lovely day - two rides, voted in Canadian election and 3 on Wordle . :sneaky: I tried the clear plastic cover for the watch but did not like it and it interfered with the lift to view which is instant without it. The OLED screen is so sharp and crisp it's a shame to put anything...

ah ....best avoided like green moss but not so likely to be on a twisty road up the range which it likes to lurk in the shade Citizen duty done despite it would make little difference this time. rather safe seat. Good couple of short rides today - need more of those. Wore my Rev'it pants...

Not sure what a Meadow Muffin is but green moss is a regular thing here and have a torn rotator cuff that still hurts a bit to remind me. Newish bike to me and simply no ability to ride frequently ....a week off and it takes time to get back into things...shake the old bones into place. Still a...

Politics down yonder. One of my more miserable rides today ...heat was NOT an issue. Good ride up the Gillies until I hit the dark cloud over Atherton. Picked up the laptop I was after to replace the 27" iMac that got eaten by the tropics. Have a 27" Dell I will use with the 15" Retina I picked...

I am listening to this :coffee: The narrator has similar accent and phrasing to Peter O'Toole so comfortable listen. Damn what a vocabulary :oops:

Always something. Got up and out early - picked up watch and it connected right away so headed out to get away from the sun which was already cooking me and I could not see the phone. Turns out my "very nice lady" seller forgot to unhook it from her account. Still chasing ...might have to go...

🥱 🦘🦘🦘 4...5...:sleep:

Marc is contemplating "next bike" when his dies. But still electric ....can't imagine what that might be. :unsure:

Things looking up. Found a Apple Watch SE in great condition for $130 was only posted 2 hours ago and snagged it. Picking up before 10 tomorrow. if I get out early will ride for a bit. 44 mm so the correct size, has a screen protector...no charger which is not an issue. I will keep it likely as...

Bike back and useable. If I find a replacement cluster can get my deposit back as long as new one not shipped. Of course I forgot my wallet but phoned in the card # At least can ride on weekend

Brutal at 2.20 am Too hot to sleep with a/c off 🥵...too cold with a/c on Mind you I have the A/C on in my small room and it is only getting down to 27 ....that might work.🥱 I think the humidity set the fire alarm off last night ....we both felt the broken sleep. UPDATED 2:20AM AEST 27.7 °...

Itchy Boots off her bike and going native in Yemen. Some progress on getting my bike back. It's still too stoopid hot to ride anyways 31.8° FEELS LIKE 36.6°C and it does. Sunny but really humid. Very little wind.

Did I feel lucky ??? Yeah Actually forgot there were four choices - struck out on the first three. :sleep: 🦘
