First off-road

I have an appointment for my 1000 service next Wednesday so I had to do 200
km today (my day off) to be around 1000.
I took the Pacific Highway till Gosford and went for off-road between
Palmdale and Kulnura.

Remind me to not go for off-road when it's wet...
I enjoyed racing on the dirt which was ok, then the surface changes all the
time and once, it was slippery and I fell... (It was at low speed, it was
ok).

Unfortunately, after the fall, the fork was not very straight, so I did not
enjoy the rest of the off-road... (I was scared of the different surfaces,
as well)
Later, on the road, I found a way to have it straight again. But it has to
be checked during my service, of course.

No, not the Japanese again!!!

Yesterday, at Bondi Beach these two planes arrived from the ocean very close to the earth... We did not know what to think.
In time of war, we should have better ran away!!!

Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park

After signing my waiter contract, I went for a short ride in the Ku-ring-gai
Chase National Park.
Very nice curves in the jungle. I did not meet kangaroo and koala yet...

During my rides, in the curves, often, car drivers stuck my ass. That's
because they often have big engines in this country!! Like in the USA, the
minimum engine is a V6.
And I am still slow, well I guess, need some more times to manage the
beast!!

Kurnell (south of Sydney)

Diana is working too much compared to me, so to get busy, let's ride!!!

I went in the south of Sydney around the Botany Bay.
I finished at Kurnell which is just in front of the Sydney Airport and the City, as you can see. There is nothing to see except the Refineries and the national park where I did not
go...

The only wildlife I have seen was this pelican and, of course, some
seagulls....

First Road trip around Sydney

Today Diana was busy all the day with a hotel training and I was not
working.
So let's enjoy my beast!!!
I reached the nearest mountain to ride some curves in the Berowra Valley.
On the way back, I took a free ferry at berowra waters and travelled along a
short portion of the Pacific highway.
Great landscape, but I did not meet any kangaroos or koala...

I could not wait longer and I bought it!!!

Diana's first Job

Boardroom waiter, this is what you can do with a working holiday visa...
At least, this is some money to pay the rent, food and petrol.
