Q Ride
Well its been 20 days since my “Last Post”, and like a true sportsman my retirement was short lived. The funny thing about blogging is that once you’ve tried it you need to do it again. So here I am , probably talking to myself, but hey it could be worse. (I think)
A mate of mine, the guy who talked me into doing this in the first place, has hit 42 years of age and is now entrenched in his mid life crisis (MLC). You see, this guy has done many things in his life and all very
- This is NOT Brendon
challenging things as well. (Although, I think his lovely wife has the greatest challenge.)
Brendon has ran marathons, triathlons, biathlons and earlier this year he rode a push bike across Australia with his son Jack. He is the shy, retiring type of bloke who tries and stays out of the spotlight (others say he is full of crap).
Now that he has finished his Perth to paradise ride he is obviously looking for an outlet. I told him that Friday arvo beers at my place for regular MLC meetings are just the ticket. But, ohh nooo, not Brendon. He has gone and done his Q-Ride Motorbike training. He has some fantasy of riding across Europe with a bunch of other like minded old farts, but first he is trying out Tasmania. (Good Luck with that)
He keeps harping on about this mob called Australian Motorcycle Academy at Nerang here on the Gold Coast. The best Motorbike trainers in the world apparently. Now, I don’t know about you, but I think he needs a psychiatrist or at least a dozen beers. He does follow that squashed football code that gets a point for missing, so I guess he is behind the eight ball to start with.
Us Football fans know that all you need to do to get a high, is to get the DVD out of November 15, 2005.
oohh what a night
late November, 2005
we kept Johny Warren’s dream alive.
Oh I remember what a night
Cheers

I love the bit where you say “probably talking to myself, but hey it could be worse” and then you answer yourself.. “I think” hahaha…
