about my life
Riding from New Castle to Sydney did not offer much interesting views on the route I chose. The Putty road could have been an alternative, but it is supposed to be very curvy. I made it to Sydney just in time for my business meeting. Just in time. I had to throw in the bags…
After a good nights sleep it was time for the koalas to get some attention. I visited the Koala Hospital in Port Macquarie where they help sick animals and working to keep the koalas from extintion. The ride today offered beautiful scenery. Between Tuncurry and Bulahdelah I found this marvelous view and som shade. The…
My ant friends got me exited (or was it lack of sleep and itch) to find more animal friends. This day was about the animals. When leaving the nice city of Grafton I dropped by the Post and former Australia National Bank office. Beautiful architecture that has been kept. The road from Grafton to Coffs…
I understand that it is important as a blogger to show pictures of all fantastic hotel rooms you staying in. This is the top floor room ( 1 story high), so it could be called the penthouse. To keep me company I had some black ants. A bit anoying when they insisted to spoon with…
Finally the journey between Brisbane and Melbourne has started. Day one offered windy conditions and I was completely exhausted after the 380 km long ride between Brisbane and Grafton. It took me 7 hours including a few stops on the way. I run over one snake. R.I.P. Better that than a kangaroo. Google maps thought…
It is windy in Brisbane, but not too bad. Shannon and I are dissapointed that the cyclone decided to bounce and move north. We sooooo wanted to be in a cyclone (and live). How many have done that of my friends?
It is not often sharks attack, but of course it will be in the waters I swim. A man got bitten in Byron bay the other day. Surfer of course. Sharks think surfers looks like yummy seals. Then I think of it I am actually hungry. Time for a steak. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2019/feb/17/man-bitten-on-the-leg-by-shark-while-surfing-near-byron-bay
To register a bike, or rather transfer from one owner to another is not as simple as it may sound. The Transport division, who is the authority which transfer international drivers licences to local Australian ones would not accept my drivers licence as a valid identification. How crazy isn’t that? After getting a bankstatement, my…
What todo when you are not close to your family? Spa of course. Kiva spa in Mullumbimby, the biggest small town in Australia. I enjoyed the day with best friends Jocke and Meilea.
Half the weight, a third of the engine, it is a nice bike, but just tiny.
