I feel bad making a point of not being able to ride for almost a week and here you've been off for a month.<br /><br />That fat tire mountain bike is really cool and your previous boss sounds like a great guy.

I guess it reinforces the difference between being passionate about something and merely enjoying it! Ankle is still a tad stiff and swollen but not enough to prevent "normal" riding. The seriously fast stuff will have to wait a wee bit longer :-)Geoff Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05041523109817248619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341114511830074977.post-49489301694923661412010-11-25T11:19:37.770+13:002010-11-25T11:19:37.770+13:00Congrats on being back on the saddle again ..... i...Congrats on being back on the saddle again ..... its amazing how it can affect you.

Jennie has hers on too as you can see by the evidence but hers are a girlie version with adjustable straps and stuff. And yes, you do know who the fishing star is and it ain't me!!!Geoff Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05041523109817248619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341114511830074977.post-78319829712401023562010-11-25T05:54:51.879+13:002010-11-25T05:54:51.879+13:00Geoff:

You do look trim and fit in the photo, but it's hard to tell. I agree that we need a Side Profile. That will settle the discussion.<br /><br />I also like the photo with the bike up the tree.<br /><br />. . . and your LUCKY RED shorts, I just had to make mention of them, but where are the Crocs ? but we all know who the good fisherwoman is, don't we ?<br /><br />bob<br /><a href="http://www.wetcoastscootin.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Wet Coast Scootin</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05258612401956399482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341114511830074977.post-81839190948604054082010-11-24T17:10:20.361+13:002010-11-24T17:10:20.361+13:00Cheers Roger!

Why do you think I took it at a distance?Geoff Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05041523109817248619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341114511830074977.post-61603478225706093712010-11-24T17:07:32.766+13:002010-11-24T17:07:32.766+13:00Thanks Anthony!

Scuffing them by hand is a dishonest option, haha!<br /><br />Oops - how insensitive of me Sonja :-(. We'll share it all with you soon enough with a bit of luck, including the fresh fish!<br /><br />I liked the photo too - thanks. It'll be some time next year if it goes ahead. Jennie has given her permission to go AWOL as long as it doesn't take too much time. Interestingly enough, it's in the H.R/people development area which most people think is foreign territory for an engineer, haha! However, it's something I developed for my old team which worked well and the principles might have wider application both in NZ and internationally. Exciting times and thanks for the good wishes!Geoff Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05041523109817248619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341114511830074977.post-66270286822976449102010-11-24T16:59:06.915+13:002010-11-24T16:59:06.915+13:00Welcome back Geoff, bummer about the fishing, next...Welcome back Geoff, bummer about the fishing, next time I come down I will bring you some snapper , brought locally from our fish and chip shop!<br /><br />You do look slim in your leathers, perhaps next time you take a pic do a side on one, then Sonja and I can judge properly.<br /><br />Cambodia......I am jealous.

ARGH! No wait, it actually makes me all warm and fuzzy inside ;-) Can't wait to return one day and see it all for myself.<br /><br />Glad to hear you were healing well and are back in the saddle, that Striple of yours must be happy to be back on the road again.<br /><br />I really love the pic with your friend/ex- and soon to be again boss (?) up the tree. I think it is pretty cool, that he offered you an opportunity re-join the work force. He must regard you highly to try and convince you to take a break from retirement. I wish you guys good luck with the project.SonjaMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12389245948579828531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341114511830074977.post-43027547754461377442010-11-24T16:44:34.960+13:002010-11-24T16:44:34.960+13:00Welcome back Geoff!!
