Ferret, my beard is very grey now, particularly when it gets a bit longer. Strangley there is very little grey in what little is left of my hair.

Houtman, take your friends for a gentle ride along the BRP. It does seem to help. Otherwise maybe bheezy's brewery would do the trick. Takeaway may be necessary for COVID reasons.

Gone in 60, you're welcome to join us any time, although I'm not sure your pristine CB would care to be anywhere near my battle scarred monster.

Bazbro, it's good you could get out for a ride. Be careful in the UK. This virus seems to be running rampant there.

treedoc, as I said, I was surprised and pleased by how green it was. It ought to be: this is our wet season after all, although we've had less than average rainfall. It often doesn't seem to help that area just north of the Queensland - New South Wales border. I think much of the rain falls on the southern side.

pdedse, thank you for those whimsical reflections on forum names. I see you and LongRanger having the same dwarfing impact as GrahamT on the CB1100. Come to Queensland when you eventually get to Australia to visit your sister. I'm hoping there may be a ride in my near future which will result in another episode in the Chronicles.

Yes, even my non-mc-loving wife notices the "dwarfing impact"...says I look like I'm riding a pony on the CB and that I look much better on my KLR650--that it fits me like a horse.

Will do!! Sis has been in Adelaide for about 40 of the last 50 years, and I've never visited--always "have to" use vacation time go to Costa Rica because of my wife's family. As I get older, I dread the long flights. But I'm still hopeful. My sister probably won't understand my insistence that I visit Queensland first : )
