Scratching My Head

For the past two days I've felt disconnected... strange "The Hulk" is gone on her way north to await my arrival.. but me I'm here .. nothing to do.. ACDC was an absolute Blast.. a bloody good nite.. when I say nothing to do I forgot about SWWBO and her magical to do before you go list..

 Fix the stereo in the room ( speaker playing up) tick

Mow the lawn  tick

fix doggy door okkie strap  tick

Block dogs view thru fence  tick (sort of :)  )

find headphone adaptor socket  tick

now that I've written it down it was a pretty easy list.. so that's probably why I feel so weird.. nothing to do and all day to do it in.. so now we're on the couch just about to watch Dance ya Bastards or some such show.. not my style but eh whatcha gonna do LIl' app SWWBO & SWWBO luv it and well I'm leaving tomorrow so this is family time... thank God/Goddess for Wine... 

Bring it on...........

And So It Begins..........

And So it begins...

Like all great adventures it starts with a single step.. this single step came in the shape of SidY and his idea born many months ago will today bear fruit.. "The Hulk" is headed for NPD transport for her trip to the Sunshine State of Qld.. 

Preparations have been many and frantic.. anything that might have presented as a problem did.. but was overcome.. So here we stand today on the verge of The Great Ride Down/Across.. in the coming days and weeks many many klms will be covered over many varied and exciting roads.. Travelling in concert with an ever growing flotilla of GPz900r's will be an amazing thing.. Excitement levels are on Meltdown.. concentration on anything not related is impossible and a waste of time.. 

ZERO

TaDa... She's done... well for the ride she's as good as she is  gonna get... I'm very happy with how she behaves.. love riding her can hardly wait to get her on the road with a heap of other 900's... Yeeehaaaa... 

The Great Ride Down /Across is about to commence tomorrow I prepare the crate for the transport section.. Next installment here will be the first of a series of reports from the ride...

Let the fun begin........

ONE

Well it's happening finally.. The Final assembly ( Well for the Great Ride Down/Across at least) Last nite .. I took the Black Beast out to the shed.. totally forgetting that it was the first tuesday of the month.. That's Hotrod Gathering evening .. 

So cruizin' out there I'm about 2 mins out when I spot a Kool looking Orange ute very similar to Young Mick's coming at me in amongst a heap of traffic.. as he goes past I see that he and Miss Vicky are looking at each other and have totally missed seeing me.. Bugga .. no biggy..  I keep going coz i know that Dewey (Dwayne) will be home.. yep.. so it's 5.30  unload bike off trailer and commence the disassembly .. It's warm has been a good 34 all day the shed is warmish but the fans is doing its job.. Gus (big dog) is out cold on the floor  so he's no help.. anyway 2 hrs and she's an empty roller.. stripped of pieces to be used on the ride and the rest stored in big blue box for storage back home in the garden shed.. for next project .. 

Thankfully Micks shed has every tool needed for any project.. the engine crane is a god/goddess send .. slowly piece by piece she is coming together .. each piece added I take a pic then sit and look and drool and anticipate what she'll feel like under me... soooo close now I mean sooo close after 3 years of planning cutting adapting welding grinding mfg thinking waiting looking drooling the time is finally at hand for the riding ...
