Just put your hand on the wall and follow it downstream, you usually don't get a lot of choices. ;)

Steve Carlton, did you buy a 800GS? If so what made you want that over the R1200GS?

Steve Carlton 10-18-2008 04:37 AM

That was a demo bike I took out while a tire was being repaired on my car nearby. I thought the bike was quite nice. Good power, light and nimble. A bit abrupt on/off throttle and the wheels don't take tubeless tires. A good way to go if you want something lighter.

"Well, honestly I don't think any of you have the experience to be just jumping on one of these things and going for a quick spin. I got bug splatter on my helmet coming here this morning, that's how fast I was going, I hit 90km/h downhill in the aerodynamic race position..."

The things you do when your bike is in the shop, heh heh

I hear Australia Post is moving to electric bikes. Be able to sneak up on the dogs and catch them by surprise. :)

Steve,
What is that second picture? Looks like some alien communication device...


And that dog, looks like he chased a cat into a door!

wswartzwel 10-19-2008 10:07 AM

I was thinking he chased parked cars.

Foggy days at home.

More fall color. I thought it was over. But these guys were hiding!

I think that's a yellow, Steve. Can't tell if it's canary or egg yolk.

Some from the weekend.

This little fellow was out for a stroll across the road and held up traffic at Macquarrie Pass.
