Plenty of things have occurred since the engine of Verbena, my beloved 2006 Triumph Sprint ST 1050, seized up in February during a Sunday ride.
After a six-month crusade renting all-kind motorbikes, unsuccessfully trying to find another sport tourer that says “buy me”, I finally purchased a completely different bike that I was not sure if I was going to enjoy: 2012 Triumph Tiger Explorer.
What a great stay at Mater Private Hospital Redland with this awesomazing young lady and exceptional rider, my friend Grace, who flew from Chiang Mai to Brisbane just to ensure I donโt jump on a motorbike right after getting my knee fixed.
Visitors are not allowed to stay in the room after 8:00 pm, but Grace was that helpful and caring that the nurses made an exception and granted her permission to stay overnight. They provided her with a blanket and a pillow, and she managed to sleep in a tiny sofa. Doesn’t she deserve a huge property in Heaven?
