Hung out with Jared this morning having a chat about stuff hes a good kid just got to work out what he wants to do with himself over the next few years like we all do at times.
Rang up to see how the rear shock on the motorbike was going Keith from Image Motorcycles told me it was stuffed and they had been in contact with Ikon shocks formerly Ricoh shocks to have a custom one built unfortunatly this is going to take some time possibly up to two weeks, i had always expected that the bike may hold me up at times and this is just one of them if something unattainable fails in Africa I will be waiting for DHL to deliver it from wherever so this is just one of those times I have to be patient and do other stuff. It actually gives me the oppurtunity to catch up with everyone in sydeny and the Central Coast.
I googled Ikon and relaised they were at Albury so rang Keith at Image back up hoping i might be able to keep heading south to if he coudl jsut get me back on the road but he said my shock was finished and was in parts on the bench so I wouldnt be going anywhere to far on that shock now, bit of a bummer but oh well no big deal.
Left Jareds after lunch and headed over to dad’s at Potts Point had a nice trip over on the ferry again met a nice bloke named Tony from Canada heading after Sydney to Byron then up to Papua New Guinea, he wasnt happy to hear that walking the harbour bridge cost 200 bucks now, good luck on your adventures Tony.
Got off the ferry at Circular Quay and then walked up through the Botanic Gardens really nice walk through there then over to Woolloomooloo past Harry De wheels pie shop up to Kings Cross,
