Me ol mate Peter “Donny” Carradus has left the employee nest to strike out on his own at last making shade sails and he will of course install custom Awning and Shades for you. Go to his contact page and say I sent you. That ought to amke no difference to anything at all, but will make me feel better.

YEs I designed the site and it’s clear my skillz are falling behind the pack. We’ll address that in due course. Anyway if you want shade sails in Victoria, Australia then Donny is your man.

Craig Spottiswood has really given speed sailing a shake- he’s always been fast; now we have the numbers 43 knots + (81 km/h)
See him smoking at Sandy:

Freaky fast.

I was full of good intent:

• Ride to work? NO problem
• Get up early to go to Fed Square? Did NOT happen.
• Get up early to do scenic route? Did NOT happen.
• Take camera for pics on the way? Yes, got it.
• Take pics on the way? NOT quite.
• Take GPS data logger? Yes got it
• Turn it on? Not until Albert Park.

Anyway, more pics to come and here’s the data track…

What a busy, insane, fun, triumphant, and satisfying weekend.

It was my pleasure and privilege to introduce Casey Stoner to an adoring Federation Square audience. It was fantastic to be offered this opportunity and Adam and I had a bloody ball.

Well, strike me down with a torque wrench!

The Grand Prix Corporation have asked me to MC Casey Stoner’s public appearance at Federation Square next Tuesday evening!

More details as they emerge, but for now I just wanna do a “holy crap this will be fun” dance.
