Selling the bikes

---

Whew, that was harder than I thought it would be, like saying goodbye to two close friends. Thankfully the bikes have gone to two people who sound like they will enjoy them as much as we have; from Brisbane, believe it or not . . . even know Rick Gard (They saw our ad on the internet and then read this blog site). They’re flying over here next week (after we’ve left) to ride them back across the Nullabor (which we’ll now do by train) . . . . Dodging heavy showers and huge gusts of wind getting them down to their friend’s house in Cottesloe we were each reminded of a much less pleasant ending we could have had. . . So we both think this is the right thing to do. There has also been an added benefit in our unexpected extended stay with the Brouwer’s. We’ve got to know Perth better. It’s a really great, well planned, booming gold rush (and iron ore) city. . .
