Hey Ducatista

Fiona with the Paul Smart here, I went for a few rides (and a few beers) with you folk last year but since 2007 I've only been in Perth for a total of about 7 days. So I must be missing you to send this missive, well, I think I'm just missing motorcycling company in general, but just thought I'd send some pics to prove you can go touring on a Paul Smart, if you're crazy enough.

Tell that other Paul Smart rider - the one who crashed it, not the one who bought it - that right about now I'm craving one of those cruise control/throttle clamps of his. But then again, at over 140kmh it's not so tough on the wrists...

And if anyone (well maybe not anyone, just those with a semblance of normality, but not too much) is crossing the Nullabor you can call into the Met. Office at Eucla, which is a rather boring little village I'll be in for a few months.

Stay upright
