Friday, December 04, 2009HERE, THERE, EVERYWHEREMikey, our good friend & 'Awesome Eight(er)' from Abu Dhabi is currently here for a visit. He brought with heaps of spices, specific sweets, 6 Vanilla scented candles (unobtainable here & always on the go in my spot in the Sandpit), HD Chrome Cleaner & various other things that I'd asked for in an email. Sincere thanks must go to him & muchly missed friend Kaya, who got much of the shopping for Mikey. (Since buggering around with templates etc. a coupla weeks back, I dunno how to do the link thingy to names & blogs, so forgive me, I am but a Dumb Blonde. I also dunno how to justify the text anymore & it's irritating the crap outa me!) Mikey hired the new 2010 ElectraGlide Ultra Limited for the duration of his stay here. It's a fabulous (dahhling) bike - so fabulous that we've ordered one. The saga of the order of my TriGlide has now become complicated & no one actually knows when the trike will arrive or even IF it will arrive. I've moaned at the HD dealer & he in turn has moaned to HD USA. It really pisses on my battery that HD USA treats dealerships outside of the USA like poor cousins. There are a shitload of customers within the Middle East & Africa who're waiting for specific bikes, but HD USA can only see fit to send what they THINK people want. In my opinion, they need a serious bloody wake up call. Anyway, to cut a long story short, we've ordered a 'Limited' as well as keeping the original order for the TriGlide. I'll accept whatever gets here first, but if it's the 'Limited' I will go back to being a pillion passenger. (*heart-wrenching sobs*) So, whilst in the area, Mikey has been riding around, checking out the local scenery. He took this photo a coupla days back. Hubs & I knew the sign was somewhere nearby, but have never seen it........Mikey's here for 48hrs & finds the bloody thing! Oh well, at least I've got my own 'evidence'! This was taken a coupla weeks back, when we escaped to the Kruger National Park for a long weekend. This afternoon, we're gapping it through to a private game reserve in the Tuli Block in Botswana, for the weekend. I shall hopefully give y'all a 'report back' on what we did/didn't see :-) Be good while I'm away. Labels: Harley Davidson, Mikey does the Last Khaki Outpost, Tropic of Capricorn
