Riding Down Under - Tropical Cairns Australia

Well no triple play on a Wordle 2 tho it had a shot at it. Still working on it.
No three peat on two - struggling to find a solution without Ai despite having 3 of 5 correct.

Even tried a couple of real if obscure words but Wordle refused them with a head shake. That's what should happen with a a solution already used.
Should have got this 🙄

Ugly muggy when we got home and had to rebuild bedroom in music room - 29 felt like 35 but very sweet Tstorm rolled in later in the night. Now a very civilized and no a/c needed.
24.7 FEELS LIKE 26.5°C
Bunch of people want to buy my AirPod Pro 2s so need to sort those.
Feel pretty decent after a short sleep and the cooler weather.
Marc on last India ride.

Noraly escapes Afghanistan with some tension involved
Easy to tell she's glad to be out.

will actually be glad to hit the dentist as the hotter it is outside the colder inside the facility. - need long sleeves.
Thee Dutch rider I bought my top case from said he puts his bike away in Nov and does not ride again until April. Might be something in that but I'd be so rusty .....

Nice at 5 am. 24 real and a bit humid. Jays game coming up in a few hours can read and watch the texts...no live feed I want to pay for.

Just cruising - not too gnarly - start word helped again

Blue Jays to win the World Series in a few hours ... :D
Maybe an early mcycle ride so I don't fall asleep. Lovely 24c at 5 am.
Done with the dentist til next year and even then it is just fitting appliance....no more dental work

My name is Michelle, 32 years old from the Netherlands and I’m on a 20,000km SOLO motorbike adventure from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur! Starting absolutely from scratch it is going to be one hell of an adventure, but that’s what makes it exciting! 😅 I’ll be sharing everything about my route, the...

Marc nursing his old Honda...did not know Honda put an oil check method at the handle bar level.

Ozempic working overtime. Hardly hungry at all and down to 106 from 110 a couple weeks back. Happy with progress but need to be careful I actually do eat. Talk about appetite suppression - yikes

I've been fighting an odd uti that is confusing as the urine test was negative but think I've figured it out. Will know more tomorrow but far too much painful squirming while sorting. Nearly had to use the codone nuclear option
.....

Like this Aussie vlogger Joe Ryan. He's got quite a CV as a film maker/photographer. The way he rides and camps on a shoe string is closest to my buddy's. Beyond Horizons which is just launching

Might drop Marc now he is not on an EV but enjoying his winter ride. Fond memories.
Noraly MIA for the moment.

Noraly surfaced. Close to her doppelganger geographically

Five inches of snow Nov. 7th.
Another 2 inches since then.
Up to + 4 degrees C to-day Nov. 11th but still cold and dreary.
Southern Ontario, typical autumn (end of riding season) weather.
(Salt & sand on the roads now.)

Australia beckons you. :giggle:
I used to hate November tho I'd still ride at 5C - couple years had 12 month rides.
