Title: Old Bloke in Cronulla
Post by: Graeme on July 13, 2012, 10:19:20 PM
Interesting.

I left my Bike at Caringbah Motorcycles (Sydney) for a bit while I went off shopping. I was told about a conversation by a third party that went something like this:- "Who owns the R65?" reply, "An old bloke who lives in Cronulla."

Now, I have not seen another bike like mine in Cronulla, but I'm keeping my eye out.

If you look ahead 5 weeks at a time you're just a new kid.  I just look forward to waking up in the morning, anything after that is icying on the cake.......... LOL


I was thinking about dropping my subscription to the "Airhead Magazine" if they don't stop sending it to me with all those pictures of white haired folk, .... most depressing

weeks  

Bob, I turned 56 last October.  I try not to think about it.  ;)

When my teenaged daughter says I'm ancient I tell her that only the really smart ones get to be this old.

It's said there are three ages of man:
1) Youth
2) Middle age
3) "You're looking well"

When i lived in Sydney i bought my service items from them, plugs, filters, i remember one plug they sold me was a dud i put the old one back in & all was good. Gee i miss a R65 its been 1yr since ive seen it (its back in sydney, dads house)
