I didn’t get to go for my “Blat” today …. bought the petrol, mixed the oil, went and bought a new Gurni at Bunnings, I was all set to go … but the in-laws came for lunch and well, after a couple of beers (?) the “arvo ride” didn’t happen.
After they left I decided to unpack the VERY last box left over after the move, it contained various “stuff” from my attic in Sydney … and these, some of the sash’s I’d won when I raced, all of the trophies are long-gone, god knows where, but for some reason I’ve kept these;

Life is short, thank god (or whoever) that we’re still here, still able to make good mates, still able to afford the bikes we love(d) so much, and still healthy enough to ride them.
Looking forward, not back.
