One last ride before the weather packs up?




The day started… eventually

I usually give the DR350 a run the day before just to make sure it’s all good, but this time I thought ‘she’ll be right, mate’

A combination of old petrol, colder mornings,and a good month before it last ran, ensured that my right leg got a good workout.

Forty something attempts with that kick starter later I had the bike running. By then I was too buggered to even smile about it.

The day went typically well after that. Youngest daughter spent the day riding around the learners track with no incidents on a bike we hired for the day for her.



I’ve worked out she’s prone to crashing, unless we pay attention to keeping her well hydrated with good food. In particular we have to be mindful during the hotter part of the day.

It’s taken a bit to get her to understand this, but I think we are getting there.
