Around Lake Macquarie and back again.

Beautiful spring day. Jan needed to drop off a portrait she had done to a lady up north. So off we went for a ride and a drop off. Portrait dropped off. Up to Swansea for a cuppa. Then a ride around Lake Macquarie. Selfies. North Entrance. On the road. Pelican War Memorial and RSL Club. Looking south down the lake at Warners Bay. Some sculptures at Lake Macquarie Art Gallery. Doing the limit. Honest.

Speedmaster - What a chump....

What a chump I am. I cut an inch off the western bars. Thought this was a good idea at the time. Ha! The throttle assembly ended up being too tight as it was resting on a bend. So could not turn the throttle grip at all. So bought some Biltwell 8" Chumps and natural colour Kung-fu grips. I had already moved the brake and throttle cables over to right hand side to allow for taller bars. The Chumps give a great riding position too.

Speedmaster - No Frills.

Yeah I know the P Pad I made looked pox. Yes it would have been better had it been placed on the lounge as a frilly pillow. Sharp knife and scissors attacked the frills today. De-frilled.
