OK, OK I lied, I am away this week, but I have prepared an earlier version for you all to enjoy while I'm gone. Enjoy, and if you don't, go somewhere else, this is not a place for you if you don't enjoy this sort of stuff. If there's not one image where you don't go back to have another look, I will buy you a beer, but it will have fruit in it. Enjoy this little interlude in your life.
Actually last week I got an email back from a friend of mine who said to me that looking at the blog was kind of like being out riding, there was an inner peacefulness in just sitting down and viewing, that all else just fades away, and I guess he's right, I find that too when I am putting them together, both this one and my interior design blog. they are very cathartic to me.
My first Guzzi project below, I had a lot of fun customizing it, but never got to ride it that much because a bloody 4 valve Daytona came along. The Guzzi below cost me just over $2K to start with. Now I have received some small gripes about the amount of images glorifying woman, you know what? And just for that there is an extra lot in this weeks.
Always liked these, not too sure about the color but there you go each to his own.
1 handed wheelie two up on the kwaka thou, good work young man.

The ugliest prettiest Guzzi there is. I have lusted after the Centauro for a long time, they are nice but ugly

Nice meeting place
Cool space to retreat to
Fuck I laughed and laughed when I saw this, especially the ciggie going exit stage left, turns out thumpees slagged of the thumpers girlfriend. he just happened to be a Russian boxing champ. The guys following up are now thinking "Fuckski meski".
Me please, let me go
Malcolm Smith, a bloody ledgend
You'd want to smack this twit wouldn't you
Found these images of my 750 round-case racer that I built. I loved this bike, cost over $60K, sold for $14K
Check out that engine
This engine was sent all over the world to have work done on it. Italy, California, Sydney, Perth, it's had some pretty famous hands laid on it.
My last race at Wanganui
