[STICKY]My Pic Of The Day

[Squizzy]

Too nicer a day to be at home. Managed to get Lynne into the sidecar again, sleeping bag around her legs and heated gloves, all good.



Red Duck cafe in Noojee for lunch via Neerim South.




As usual, Lynne sat in the sun and I sat in the shade. Nice lunch.



A few bikes there, seemed like a BMW Club ride until a couple of European brand things turned up!



Nice ride home via Powelltown. A good day.

Looks nice tomorrow as well, Lynne is baking bread, so maybe a solo ride.

Cheers Ian

Another day, another ride. Just a short one today, St Andrews, Kinglake, Toolangi then home.

Just working my way through the garage.

Nice one.

And better than trying to get a stone-dead Mitsi sorted.
Looks like the starter motor packed in (after various tries at jump starts, new battery etc etc)

This one flicked across the screen again...

Another one closed, surrounded by a barbed wire fence. Didn’t stop for a pic, this one from the web.View attachment 10500

WTF......the Wobbly Boot pub closed? I'd never been there myself but I got my user name from the song about this pub......

Apparently, the pub was named the Wobbly Boot during the truckie's blockade in '79 going by one of the comments.

New Zealand's Southern Alps this morning, looking south from above-Christchurch.

A little bit closer to home this one. Nice ride today Whittlesea, Kilmore, Lancefield, Broadford and then home. Around 300ks. Bike ran well, nothing broke or fell off, that's about 6 rides now where nothing exciting has happened. A bit chilly, but all good.

Cheers Ian

Went on an very nice Melb Ulysses ride yesterday to Gippsland. Bike went well.

Interesting comparison with the GS 25 years apart.

Oops, is that a motorbike?
Might be an alien spaceship.
Well, it has an BMW badge so it might be a motorbike. I will not make my peace with the silver coloured glove compartments beside the fuel tank ..... no ...... never.

Another day of clearing and dismantling the old workshop of machinery and equipment to make room for a lick-of-paint to prep for a sale.

First of the 2 "Heavies" on some jerry-rigged dolly and the very handy hydraulic bike-lift (this thing is awesome).
Very slow maneuvering through narrow doors and passages for this 1/2ton cast-iron relic of the '60s.







Time for the first lot of plaster-patching....
