Last Show Before Travelling Home
I made it. 2 days of driving and I was home. Daughter got lots of hugs, too, but these were edited out.
Travelling Back Across the Nullarbor
Travelling Back Across the Nullarbor. The most amazingly stunning scenery!
It feels like I am on my way home
It feels like I am on my way home. And I am. But there is a looooong way to go….
A 2Hr Detour for an Extra Show
A 2Hr Detour for an Extra Show
I finished the last show in Perth and wasn’t sure whether I was driving to Broomehill or to Esperance. Everyone at the agency had finished for the day and were not answering any of my calls. Eek!
I ended up staying the night at a little town where I could either turn right to go to Esperance or go straight ahead to go to Broomehill. I got a call in the morning that Broomehill was going ahead which meant I had to leave straight away. It was a two hour drive and I was due to start in 3 hours. To give me an hour for setting up and warming up. Yikes.

I am going to use this as my new promo. What do you think?
No Time for any Warm-Up
No Time for any Warm-Up. Due to a series of unfortunate circumstances, I had no time for any warm-up. No riding, no juggling, no anything. Yet, it went spectacularly well. Sweet!
1.7cm made all the difference
1.7cm made all the difference. Yep. I was trying to work out why I was struggling to do some of the tricks in the show. My seat was too high! But not by much. Yet enough to make a HUGE difference.
The Last Shows of the Week
The Last Shows of the Week. I am really looking forward to some actual days of doing nothing. Driving doesn’t count as a day off.
Stopped By The Principal Mid-Show
Stopped By The Principal Mid-Show. It is true! I am not sure what he was thinking or what was going on but I had to say, I’m only half way through the show….
He was very apologetic and I went on with the show. The kids loved it.
Spare Bike to the Rescue
Spare Bike to the Rescue
After a 2 hour drive I made it to Kalgoorlie, ready for shows. As I was warming up I noticed something odd happening to my rear brakes. I also learned that I had left my tools back in Melbourne. I couldn’t fix it with the tools that I had with me. This is why I have spare bike!
The issue turned out to be the brake mounting post that had come loose from the frame. An easy fix when you have the right tools.
