It was just awful. Mile after mile of second gear riding.
I got it into third every so often.

No gum trees away from the coast for me, though.

Plenty of fir trees tho Mel!
We'll be able to keep riding when we're too old to ride. Just put the nursing home headphones on and watch away.

You see Jeff, if you had a pro rebuild that box you could ride on straighter roads. :D

She's high geared, I'd have been stuck in third with occasional fourth.

Do you tilt your head, or do you lean from the waist when you play one of these? Muriel calls it--"Are you watching a moto vid?"
