A bit of work, time and some parts later and Big Bird is back on the road. I was so relieved when I hit the starter and it fired up with no engine damage. Even more relieved when it rode OK (so clutch...

Woke this morning to find Big Bird has been stolen. R1150GS, Yellow, Rego: A2459 (ACT), Staintune exhaust, Hepco+Becker bars / racks. If anyone sees it, please alert ACT policing. RECOVERED! Sunday...

Bit o ridin’, bit o campin’, bit o relaxin’... Big Bird emerges from the portal. Behind and beyond Is the land where time doesn’t exist (if you don’t want it to). Onward, then, back to ‘civilisation’...

April 26 (Anzac Day here is Oz; when we reflect of the sacrifices made of all in WWI) has a reputation around here of being when winter gets switched on. So...grabbing the opportunity to get out of to...

Quick run for Bumblebee today. I gave in to its pleas for attention. Short, poignant, stop near home. In three days will be the Royal Australian Airforce’s (RAAF) 100 year anniversary. Lots of flyover...

Why sit around the unit bored!? Why not take Big Bird for a day trip into the Snowy Mountains? Have lunch at Thredbo Diggings (on the Thredbo River. In Koscziousko National Park)! (Could have done wit...

What to do when the next contract start is pushed out a couple of days? Simples! Toss a coin. Heads = TRX; tails = GS... heads it is....

OK, so, it seems the ‘U-beut’ paralever bushing kit was not so ‘U-beut ’ after all (sigh). Big Bird endured the indignity of having its nether regions removed for reversion to the standard (but new) t...

Gotta love those rare days off. Quiet afternoon, chores done...TRX hasn’t been ridden in for a few weeks...quick look around the National Arboretum was in order. Brindies lookin’ good....

Thought I’d jam a quick ride with a skills focus in after work. Getting there. Long way to go. I was reminded of that when someone dive-bombed under me on one of the longer sweepers. Lol. Clearly much...

With the rain taking a break this afternoon, there was only one decision to make: which bike! Bumblebee by a whisker (love this thing)....

That was fun. Only a few drops. https://www.relive.cc/view/vPOpNKPQDEq...

What better way to ease into the weekend!? Ride, something to eat, a beer, watch the (Cotter) river roll by......

Weather here in CBR has been ‘average’ to say the least. Between that and wurk... So, when you’ve got an hour or so up your sleeve on Sunday evening and it isn’t minus 210 degrees and it isn’t raining...

A quick ride up Mt Ainslie this arvo. Couldn’t see any snow in the Brindabellas (felt like there ought to have been some all the same!)...

Bumblebee has been miffed that Big Bird seems to be having all the outings lately. I listened and agreed. So, this afternoon, we went for a brisk jaunt into the mountains with a stop at Dairy Farmers...

A short loop yesterday. Took Big Bird up to Goulburn, then back to Canberra the ‘back way’ via Tarago. Means you pretty much circumnavigate Lake George!...

Sooner or later I had to test how my back was recovering. So... Quick run on Big Bird to the Cotter Camp Ground for a cup of tea. Then, on to Uriarra Village. Onwards towards the Brindabellas. Into Bl...
