Would have been funny for your "like family" dealer let you borrow it for a drive...and visit home...

Wonder if I can swing a C63 demo drive and head via home....or an m4...or an Is-f lexus
He might have let me take one of the demo's home.

It's a long round trip, and I wanted the deal done. Less time to second guess yourself.

morning btw...

Evening gentlemen.

How does the new car go?

About to lift some weights while enjoying a nice glass or two of Cabernet Merlo.[wine]Training with the prolonged rest pause system. ;D

Pretty nice.

I have to read the owners manual though...buttons everywhere.

I barely could work the radio. ;D

Yep, I get it.
GLW got the GT 86 because the GTS had too many newfangled features she couldn't easily operate or would never use.

G'day needles.

This is very civilized. Having a sip of red between sets while chatting to my fellow DMFers. Who says home gyms don't work? ;D

It's pissing down here. My plans for a night ride are kaput.

Glad I just installed an electric wall heater in the shed. It's that new radiant technology where the element doesn't glow. Have to remember to turn it off though. Works a treat.

We're getting yours. :P

Heater is keeping me warm on the outside. Training and red wine are keeping me warm on the inside.

We didn't get the long, glorious Autumn I was expecting. We did last year but I was still busted up til winter. Autumn here is usually such beautiful riding weather. Sunny low/mid 20s, good for bike and rider to do big miles in comfort.. I wanted to visit Ung, but it didn't happen. Might have to do another brass monkey run and meet in Noojee again.

I rode the DR to the Noojee pub last Sunday Tony.

Was cold, but not so brass monkey  [thumbsup]

Cant remember if there's a servo at Noojee. Cant remember how far Noojee is from (where's the turn off?) Launching Place?
Checking if the Hyper will make it. [laugh]

Actually, now I think about it, if the M1100 can make it between petrol stations then the Hyper should (just about).

There is a servo at Noojee.  It's the one bowser only open when they feel like it olde worlde variety.

But even your Hyper has enough range to get there from.... Yarra Junction.  And back.
