Tickles first Bike Ride

Posted on by

I am not sure what enjoyed more, watching Tickles ride around Sydney Park for the first time or watching others get out of her way. Not bad for a first effort, just need to work on the application of the braking system, not so much the ability to actually use both the pedals and both handbrakes but moreso to use them in a more gradual application. We certainly broke in that new bike and the tyres, each application of the brakes resulted in a black rubber streak on the path 🙂 and mostly me or someone else tripping over her 🙂 One complete lap around sydney park definitely deserved an over priced icecream…Well done to Chaos also for being a helpful big Sis with plenty of encouragement and the occasion threat 😉

Wide Brown Land

Deserves a wide pano i reckons.

So after asking where in Canberra Chaos would like to go, she says,
'that place with the gumnut houses'
me: 'oh right, i can't remember what I had for breakfast, can you give me some more clues? 🙂 '
chaos: 'That place were we took a picture with the rocket ship 🙂 '
ahh now I understand, I did have her convinced that the Black Mountain Telstra Tower was indeed a space rocket 🙂

She also said she wanted another picture there (https://flic.kr/p/CEkDax) with her sister in the same spot, so after a cool session at the Arboretum with the two best Aunties we stopped by to grab a quick shot. Tickles was mighty unimpressed due to the fact she was almost asleep, but with some promises of everything under the sun by Chaos she diligently sat up on the sculpture and scowled for the photo 🙂

Sometimes at work I have been known to be a bit of a PITA to my manufacturing brethren, I often get calls from sheeties cursing me and asking why the f%$# did I put a lightening hole in there.. to which I usually giggle, ' cause i can' 😉 ..
but.. this architect takes this to another level, if I was the builder for this.. I would be like, why the f$%# did you not make at least a couple of levels the same.. actually why the hell did you make everything different ? 😉
Well I suppose on the bright side the builders are not gonna get bored, different shape every day..
