bike withdrawals

so i sold my bike because i left Australia and moved to the US. so now i am getting married and haven't been able to find work here in US. so i can't afford to buy a motorcycle, and i really really want one. i have already started planning my next big trip, alaska to argentina.
my withdrawals are so bad that i am now in the process of finding all motorcycle films ever made and watching them back to back. i search through craigs list classifieds and other motorcycle ads dreaming of owning another bike.
i have fantasies of buying an old British bike and restoring it. buying a Harley and riding it across the us. buy a dirt bike and hit the trials.
i am seriously starting to go insane. if i don't get my motorcycle fix each day i don't feel right. every couple of hours something motorcycle has to be in my life.
am i starting to go crazy or do other people have this too.
need some wheels

No leading elbow syndrome !

Crikey Mate,


Get down the local bike shops, bike wreckers, learnrer rider centres, motorcycle tours, courier places hang around a bit, bung on the accent tell em a few Ozi yarns / jokes and see if they have any work. Put an ad online and at the above mentioned or in the local rag and detail bikes for cash, most importantly offer pick n delivery, you can always say ya got lost when it's returned with 500 odd K's on it (good way to get shot too)

But a fair call being an Ozi in the big smoke


Cheers Dave

PS. Failing that have a and watch On Any Sunday
