So here we are...
The first sentence in the first post of my first blog.
I hope the import of this occasion is not lost on you, my esteemed reader(s), especially as by the time you read this it will probably be six months old and you would have only come across this blog due to a typo when searching for the latest online installment of Australia's favourite Catamaran monthly 'Aussie Two Keels'.
I have wanted to do this (writing a blog, not making bad jokes) for a long time, but like so many things in my life it has been lost within the noise of a full-time job, doing the laundry and the other minutiae that constitutes adult life.
Since contemplating starting a blog, I have moved countries and jobs twice, gone around the sun three times and the plan is to use this blog as a platform to share some of my experiences, both for your entertainment as well as helping to crystallize these happenings in my memory for my own benefit.
As for the title, well it sells itself innit. I'm an Aussie and I love motorcycles*. It's not just the machinery that inspires me, it's the freedom it grants and the interesting people and places it has brought into my life.
Sure, I could have chosen a more imaginative and witty title but this sums me up best at this point in time and it also matches my twitter account (yes you just got upselled).
So please.. come in, make yourself comfortable and I will bring out some tea and nibblies when the other guests arrive.
*Though I am Two wheel-less at the moment, this will change very soon and will no doubt be the subject of a blog post or twelve.
