w 0 0 t ! ! 2 in 3 days !

I need to make a couple of little changes.

Firstly, over the New Year period I buggered up and advertised my Carbon XTC at a stupidly low price.  Naturally it sold in 15 minutes or so.

I will have to change the title image now as the SS is the current Mountain Bike.  The SS has been a little neglected of late, I have had a few virus things and not feeling wel enough to ride it.  As I have been riding the 17 km to Daisy hill before then riding with friends there it's been a better idea to ride Mrs HBR's dually on those days.   It's easier to smash the others when I have some gears to keep some energy in reserve.

My week off in January was to be shifting a few things then service my motorbike.  I bought a lot of things from the States last August which have been sitting in the bottom of my tool box and then I'd get out for a couple of rides.  This never managed to happen.  I spent the week shifting more and more stuff to storage and just wore myself out.  I realised the last time I was shifing this much stull I was 5 years younger, climbing and doing the off road tri-athelon series.  Gee, did I ever notice the difference.

I turned 50 in December, Lucas HBR turned 2 in December and Mrs HBR turned 40 early this month.  It's been an expensive few months I guess.


Late last year we agreed we should get organised and look at selling our Home.  It's lovely and really handy to things but as we are getting closer to slowing down it would make some good sense to sell here, reduce some debt and see if we can either build or buy another rental in the near future.

In the past couple of days we got around to putting our townhouse on the market.  I find the costs involved in selling bordering on obscene.  The plan will be to sell here and move over to Mrs HBR's house.  We spent lots of time packing up all kinds of stuff and putting it into a storage shed.  I did a lot during the first week of January with the plan that the second week the place would be on the market.  It was planned that we would be out before the sheds were being demolished.  Hmmm...   Well, by mid march, we had to shift from one side of the complex to the other and sign for another 3 months.  We were very fortunate to have some friends help the shift.

 The HBR's are taking next week off to head up to the Sunshine Coast for a break. 

I'll post nthis now coz we're hack from the sunny coast and wil try to retro edit shortly.
