I've been stressing my ass off trying to finish printing material for Ducati to deliver today as Troy Bayliss and Ducati's CEO are here for a press conference, I am really late on delivery and what is more stressing is that if I let them down ( which I won't) it would be akward because tomorow I am flying with the Ducati dealership guys to Italy for the DRE ( ducati riding experience ), 2 days of track!!!! and a visit to the factory..... wish me luck!

Well had a good run tonight after the grind.
Getting dark a lot earlier this time of year down south here in Oz.
Saw a dead 'roo covering half the road... better him than me, but man I hate riding after dusk.
Just always hope my bike is loud enough to scare the giant rodents away before they dart across my path...

I cannot imagine what hitting one of them on a bike would do! I saw a fairly small dead 'gator cut into two pieces when out riding last weekend and managed to miss it, would hate to meet up with a full sized one

Sh*t gators! At least with the long travel suspenders on the Hyper you could maybe get over the top of 'em
Hitting a roo is like hitting a brick wall, you should see what they do to cars, let alone bikes.  I reckon it would hurt...a lot!
We've had some good rains last summer so they're everywhere at the moment along with mice and rabbits.
They're most active night but I did see 3 the other day bouncing along the side of the road in the middle of the day while I was riding.
