Riding Down Under - Tropical Cairns Australia

Partners ship building proceeds apace.



Love the lifeboats and jaunty smokestack.
...
Got stuck on a tricky Wordle this morning ...down to last clue...partner bailed me out - that's twice recently :eek:

Going for another Whopper pig out nearer to noon. It's hot now anyways.:sneaky:
 
Lavi and Ollie back on the road...good reminder why I have no interest in going to India let alone riding there but interesting to see from my almost equally hot in tropical Australia but far more peaceful.

They are buying Royal Enfields mebbe or a Hero -Pulse 200. Lot lighter than the REs 🍿

Partner house/dog sitting the kids for them to have a night out and no driving concerns....I'm sure they will imbibe their share.
So almost Happy New Year.... 🍾🍾 Will watch the fireworks in Sydney

 
Noraly on the go again, slightly better voice.
Using her phone to navigate but curious why her watch on the handlebar :unsure:

Off to Dr appointment in too few hours but had silly amount sleep during the day.
appointment a 8.30 am and should get a bit of a ride in as well. Maybe up the Gillies, more likely to the nearest Hungry Jacks for the burgers and sundae deal.🍔🍔🍦
Will be okay breakfast...lots of protein.
Out tonight for Bowl's Club.
Bike started fine today and enjoyed the ride to the clinic ( 15km or so ). Still not smooth with the clutch....grrr....maybe will miss the spacious seating on the GS.
With our limited budget and I'd prefer to be in a Honda I know is near bulletproof instead of the unknown of BMW service costs and a first model year bike.
And the Honda CB500F is a quicker bike. Be nice to be back in the 47hp class ....whoopdeedoo :rolleyes:
No easy windscreen solutions for the CB500F ....many say it's fine naked and my tank bag picks up wind on my chest. Will try that for a while.
Week away from my trek to Townsville..really hoping stepdottor follows up on her offer to drive me.
We can go early and I might be fine driving back to Cairns same day instead of an overnight.

Lavi and Ollie starting off in India.
200cc Hero each. She's pretty new to take on traffic in India. 🍿

Lovely sunny morning with mid 20s temps - humid heat has broken at least. Promises good ride tomorrow to Kuranda with German mate for a German Tucker feed. Yum
