Australia content

I'd like to be listed as one of your "helpful people". I haven't gone out of Australia as yet, but it's just a matter of time! My latest trip was a round-Australia-in-2-months effort. I've got a reasonably well-equipped workshop, and can provide accommodation for a few days if needed. My phone # is 042 990 7329 (mobile). Mail za2...@optusnet.com.au

Thanks Ben!

"If any motorcycle travelers are stranded or in need of help while visiting our part of the world, feel free to give me call, I may be able to assist. I've been riding bikes for many years and know what a pain in the arse it is to need help and not know where to start looking, especially in a foreign country. I have a couple of bikes myself and have always done my own repairs, I worked as a bike mechanic for ten years, so I have a fair idea of how to adapt things and find a way around most mechanical problems. At present I run my own used machinery yard, so I have more tools than you can point a stick at and plenty of storage space. If any one needed to crate a bike I can use my forklift to load it onto transport. We live about five minutes from the airport and at the very most, twenty minutes from most major bike shops. Hope you never get stranded, but if you do give me a call, or just drop by for a chat with a fellow motor cyclist. Joe"
