4th November - BRISBANE

All Outspoken

When a person throws a load of KFC grease at you on the highway, it says three things. They don’t care about themselves and their own health, they don’t care about you, and they don’t care about the environment. When someone picks out the only car on the street that obviously belongs to charity, and smashes it’s window to collect polaroid film and a guitar, that says they only care about themselves. When the police don’t come until you tell them channel 9 is on the case, it says that only their reputation is important, and when they stop us from cycling on roads supposedly unfit for the touring cyclist, it says they are interested in collecting money and driving fast cars on the highway. Has Tom already complained? I’ll move on.

Needless to say, after 320 days on the road, I must have written about 80 journal entries, and that’s more that a three year university degree could squeeze out of me. Right now, I’m done. I’m out of ammo, and I’m shooting blanks. I’m outspoken (mum, does this make sense?)
The American credit crisis seems to have hit MyPOWER as hard as any company, and this insanely fast pace city riding has left us longing for home. Clutching at straws, I remember the times when I was more inspired, and have decided to substitute these moments into this blog.

I would love to include the other lads’ journal entries, but there might be a time when they too become “outspoken” and need to sub in their best of’s.
