Fun...

Today I had a fantastic day. It was just one of those days where I loved Sydney so much.

My bike was still out of action this morning because I needed a new rego holder so I jumped on Judo's bike and took it for a little bit of a spin. I enjoy riding a different bike to mine every now and then. When I saw Judo's bike in the bright sunlight I decided that both his and my bike needed some TLC so I washed and polished both our bikes. Niiiiiiice and shiny. My bike looks so hot right now (So, as you can see, my idea of fun is not the same as everybody else's).

So, to show them off we went for a ride north up to Mt White and the Road Warriors Cafe. I LOVED this ride. I was totally into it... (and usually I loath this ride. There's often too way many tossers on this road). Judo had the co-ords for a couple of geocaches around the Mt White area so we pulled over and went bush to find them. The search took us to a very cool escarpment strewn with large boulders. Amazing scenery, isolation, high cliffs and BIG rocks. I was in a little piece of heaven. This just seemed like a perfect afternoon. The weather was perfect, we laughed, we tested our riding, we went exploring, I joked around (see pic... me striking a pose) and Judo joked back.

To top it off, I have just had a good catch up with Mum and Dad on the phone. The best part: Dad sharing a story about his biking days that he hadn't shared before and me sharing one of my stories with him. I just love it when Dad and I chat like that. I know he still has a few more stories up his sleeve.

It's great that you can chat with your Dad like that. I know my Dad loved me dearly but he was the silent type and rarely shared his thoughts and experiences with me.

Sounds like a really nice day. There's no way in hell you'd catch me on a motorbike as I'm too chicken, but I can see the attraction and freedom of it!

March's header image is great too. :)
