Last time I heard reference to PSA, my doctor was going to lube his finger and check my - - (nah, sorry. Not going there. My bad!)

I've just viewed that video clip, and it scared the crap out of me especially when a quick calculation tells me that 300km/hr equates to 83 metres per second. What length is the average tin top - 4 metres? 83 divided by 4 = close to 21? In other words if traffic was stationary and bumper-to-bumper he'd be able to pass 21 cars per second. What was he on (other than a Yammie)? Speed (of the methamphetamine type)? Absolute Richard Cranium.

Lane splitting is illegal, unlawful and frowned upon in New South Wales. However, the State Government is trialling lane filtering in a couple of areas whereby bikes are allowed to moved to the front in traffic that is stationary at traffic lights and thereby effect a quick getaway ahead of the pack when the lights change. Sounds good to me, but damned near impossible seeing I'm now dragging around Annie's Voyager.

Don't hold ya breath Condor. I just had a look at Tom's profile, and according to the information HE has posted, and I quote directly from that profile . . . " Bike Year and Model none right now " Go figure - -

Geeze. You're a bugger for punishment girl. My thoughts will be with you whilst you're under the knife. God speed and a healthy recovery.

Our only daughter has announced she will make me and the pillion grand parents again in July. Her first-born, our fifth grand child. Already have three grand sons, a daughter-in-law is expecting in April (that's four) and this one makes five. Feeling older - me? No way. Every grand child is making me younger.

For my worth, I'd take a detour AND a diversion and give it a BIG miss. Look for something that is on the road, running, loved and for sale. That way you know it works. Like I said - my worth (which is worth about 2.08c in Oz)! -
Now the fires are close to home Annie. You can nearly see the Warrumbungles from here. Good friends live on a couple of thousand acres to the south-west but are far enough away not to be too worried. http://www.dailyliberal.com.au/story/1234488/bushland-inferno/?cs=112

We were expected to hit 113 in my neck of the woods today, but only made it to 106. Gonna hang around for a another week or so they tell us.

Ah - y'all a bunch of sissies. We got to 106 today.

Just head 'Down Under.' Bikes and trailers all over the place!

Thanks Don. (I thought I felt a slight tremor during the night!)

Key KarlS. Welcome to the grand dad club. Your life has just begun! Woo hoo!!! I know - I have three grandsons, :bighug::bighug:all pre-school age and I have two more :bighug:grand kids on the way.

Hey Miles. Yep, it is a hill - UPHILL all the way!

I love doing this - it's called Aussie 'oneupmanship'. We're doing the count down to 2013 and as I type we have eight minutes to go. So - Happy New Year to y'all whenever it gets to you (about 10 hours or so). I hope you didn't fall over that fiscal cliff!

What's commonly referred to Down-Under as 'dog turd'! (Well, you've seen what a dog turn looks like on your tyre [tire] when you run over it??)

Hey Eck. I have a married son and a married daughter living in Adelaide. In fact my pillion-in-a-million is there now visiting. Give me the name of Jason's suburb and I'll figure how close he is. Ya never know, I might get to have a beer with him when I'm there next.

Price here in Oz can be anywhere between $1.40 and $1.50 per litre. One US Gallons = 4.54609 litres x (say) $AU1.45 = $AU6.59 Now, the Aussie $ is worth $US1.05, so $AU6.59 x 1.05 - $US6.9195. That makes $3 a gallon look mighty fine and dandy! Go figure!

Hey Annie, You know where all your weather ends up after 3 days, don't you? That's right. Over here. KEEP IT!

Half your luck with the snow, guys. Where I am in Oz, on Christmas Eve around mid-day it hit 39.5degC (100F?) Then a storm came over the mountain and the temperature dropped to 26C. Dropped further overnight and Christmas Day I had to pull on a sweater. Today - Boxing Day 11am - it's sitting on 18C (64F) Talk about a land of extremes. Wouldn't live anywhere else!

Merry Christmas back at ya Don. I can say that now because it's just kicked over midnight on your east coast and you're officially into Christmas Day. For me - I'm freeloading with my bride's sister's family about five hours from home, and its just gone 4pm - Christmas Day. (We always get in prior to you, eh?) Chrissie gifts all given out and chrissie dinner is an hour or so gone. Relaxing prior to afternoon tea and a light dinner tonight. Cheers all and a prosperous, safe and healthy 2013.
