Blogs about our trips
I love new roads. I love exploring where they take me. I love the different places, towns and scenery they take me through. I love the new experiences they present me. So a couple of months ago a friend posted on a long distance riding forum that he wanted to have a beer with some…
Sometimes it pays not to think about stuff to much. And just be grateful for a good outcome. This weekend I went for a spin to Gunnedah with my daughter Emma to meet her Fiancé who was riding down from Qld. As this was her first BIG ride it was a pretty cruisey affair. Ride…
I remember a few years ago a friend telling me after a trans Australian run where he ran out of fuel that the big kawa’s only have 100m left to run after their first splutter. I hoped I wasn’t going to put that to the test. But I’ll get to that later. One of my…
After a last minute call up on Thursday for motocomm duties for the Grafton to Inverell cycle race. I had to make a quick trip to Grafton. With limited time I opted to slab it straight up the freeway. Sorry but freeways are not travelling they are for covering large distances quickly, completely devoid of…
Flying into Sydney it was interesting to look out the window and observe the Australianness of our cityscape. We’re home. I know that in no time at all, the trip will be but a distant memory so I thought I’d reflect on my own limited observations of traveling to the US. This trip has covered…
Thursday represented our last full day on the Stampin’ Up! trip and in the US. While Deb spent the afternoon shopping with the girls I went shooting with a few of the boys at a local gun club. After 30 minutes or so of safety talks and instruction on the various weapons we were taken…
Well the last couple of days been very full on in all sorts of ways. .!! On Wednesday they gave us a tour of the Stampin’ Up factory which is at the bottom of Utah, so they chartered a 757 to take us there. The closest airport was St George airport. I’m glad they didn’t…
Well the last couple of days have been a mixture of chilling, shopping, touring Stampin’ Up head office, and sitting by the pool chilling. Today we were taken into Salt Lake City and on a tour of the Stampin’ Up headquarters just out of Salt Lake City. When we entered their headquarters we were treated to…
Today I had to return the bike to the shop. I really enjoyed the time we shared on road and I loved riding in Utah. When I was planning this trip I must admit that I was a bit nervous about what to expect; the availability of fuel; riding on the right-hand side of the…
So today there was a new plan devised – go to Arches National Park and then across to Colorado and see how I am going for time. Arches National Park is different again.! And as plans had changed I had a bit more time so I did a bit of walking to get the most…
