true, I wouldn't either, I'd just sell it and get something half decent :p

In all seriousness though, Nick, please be careful on that bike. One of my good mates was riding back from work one day in brissy, a taxi cut him off and a week later his parents had to make the aweful decision to turn off his life support. He was 19.

Such a waste of a young life.

Problem is not the bike rider, it's the idiots around them.

I'd agree in most cases but not so much with this one. It's quite competitive with some of it's rivals. Plus, at ~3.5L/100km there are huge savings in fuel costs to be had.

I remember you telling me that a while back. Sad story.

I was definitely seen on the way home though. Well, heard first. I'm still getting use to the indicator system and a couple of times hit the horn when I meant to indicate left. I did it once when I was behind a paddy wagon. :o

Got a sore arm from playing Wii Ten Pin Bowling.:o

No, I lost to my son. He has the spin thing down pat, can bowl along the left or right gutter and curve it in for a strike:evil:

That game is very addictive. I started playing with my sister one night around 8 or 9, I was still up although by myself at half past 12. :p

I'm working on my spin. Has he bowled a perfect game yet?

Just got the newly released Bryan Peterson book Understanding Shutter Speed last week.

I quite like the way he explains things. I have 3 of his books now. Saw that one on the shelf in NJ when I was there a couple of weeks back but decided not to buy it.
