Little Saturday ride north to the Hunter. It apparently does two things well: wine and motorcycle roads. It was fun.

I'm not on X (spits in spittoon), but I saw this posted on Reddit. Makes you think.

Enjoying getting out on the dirt a little more. Still not my comfortable place, but it's fun and opens up new areas to ride in. And it pushes me. 😀 #motorcycle #motosky

Home via way of some very pretty dirt roads. Also, no wildlife tried to kill me so that's something. 😀 #motosky #motorcycle

Trip yesterday to my Mum's via Oberon. was long but good. 440km on back roads. Made an hour longer by roadworks...and nearly considerably longer by a suicidal wombat. No idea what it is with me and suicidal wildlife. I should have a word with the animal gods. #motorcycle #motosky

Supposedly the shop I had doing the servicing was replacing this every 6 months. Not sure about that.

We spend hundreds of bucks in cat toys and what do the cats actually want? A box with holes cut in it and a stick with a string tied to it.

Quick question for both #motosky and #photography. I have this great Ulanzi X-Aircross tripod. It's travelled with me by motorcycle on several international trips. But now the tote bag is wearing out. I need one that lasts and that has strapping points. Recommendations?

Followup to my post about #kdenlive vs #finalcutpro. kdenlive ended up being fantastic. No crashes. (A mac install is supposed to be crash-prone, but that wasn't my experience.) It was actually quicker for me to edit in once I got used to it. And yeah, baby, #opensource. Will be continuing.

Without a doubt this RE Nirvik jacket is the best one I own. Well designed for airflow, warm in winter, doesn't show the dirt, CE2. Only problem, no waterproofing. Comes with a red jacket that you can put in the back pocket that makes me look like a camel as I can never fold it properly.

Eight and a half years ago, I met this amazingly determined and gorgeous woman. She's strong when I'm weak, thoughtful when I'm a boofhead, and — somehow — adores me. I said hey let's ride motorcycles, and she said ok and learned to ride. She's my companion, my best friend, my wife. I'm very lucky.

We rode two of these little Yamaha FZ150 motorcycles around Sri Lanka in January. They were great bikes. Light (128kg), reliable, and quick. Well, as quick as Sri Lanka gets. Modern version of the ones ubiquitous in Malaysia. Hmm...and we do need to see more of Asia. 🤔

Don't think I've posted this pic before. 🤷 Me in Thailand in 2024 riding a PCX155. We'd stopped to check out this view and Dalma, behind me, said "don't move". This photo was the result.

Motonews from India. The government launched E85 this month. 85% ethanol 15% petrol. And there are essentially zero fuel-flex vehicles on the roads. This follows the imposition of E20 as standard petrol. The indian motoculture is vast and passionate. Thoughts are with you! #motosky #motorcycle

In the evenings, Dalma and I sometimes play rummy. Just a sweet way to pass an hour. Until I was dealt this hand. And went down when I picked up an 8. 🤪
A rummy hand dealt that is nearly gin.

So. I took the Aoocci navigator off the Himalayan. Aspirational piece of tech, but implementation needs work. Worked well for 6mo. Then the connection to the GPS broke its solder meaning it became an android auto device. Then the android auto stopped working. Shame. #motorcycle #motosky

It was my birthday yesterday. Dalma, thoughtful girl that she is, gave me an album with the thumbnails from the channel. ❤️ Interesting how the craft has improved. From barely legible thumbs for unwatched videos at the start to ones that people can actually read and watch. I'm very lucky. ❤️
