Meet Rob from Fendalton and his attempt to wrestle with SMS's

Rob's SMS

I'm a sport. There has to be another sport

If windsurfing is not going to do it for me, gain me Commonwelth Games selection, then how about cycling? If I can't be a Barbara how about a Sarah or a Katie!

A fortnight ago I completed the Otago Rail Trail ride. I got on my bike so to speak at Alex and 151 kms later I arrive in Middlemarch, having enjoyed every k of the ride. Words of advise. Hire a bike with a gel seat and wear bike pants. Your anatomy will thank you for it!

The country side evolved from the schist hill sides of Central, through to the spacious Maniatoto and the Rock and Pillar Ranges. Each day of the ride bought new landscapes. The Poolburn Gorge, the wide open Ida Valley, the scenic Ranfurly, and the stoney Maniatoto. This was definitely a trip worth doing, infact come November, I intend to ride it again.

"Barbara" Launching the windsurfing career

Awaiting Commonwealth Games seletion. Seen here leading the race. Bound for Chile!

On this windsurfing learning journey I have learnt there are ALWAYS experts. Everyone knows something about windsurfing and they all have experience and advise to offer. They offer it to you like they were out on the water just yesterday!
Why is it, the one person whom I would value advise from, is never around? There is never a Barbara, when you need her most.


Reading through the statisitical information on Barbara's home page I discover the average female windsurfer weighs approx 58kg. Either I loose weight or refine my expectations of gaining Commonwealth Games selection! Life is sooo cruel sometimes.

Wine, meaning of life. tell me about wine again

Here I am after a few Christmas drinks, contemplating the meaning of life. I'd like to believe that as far as the wine goes my glass is always half full. Repeating this blog is a bit of a challenge. By the time I finish it my wine glass may well be EMPTY. Bring it on!

Welcome to my blog:

This is blog number 6.
I was going along on this tortuous journey quite nicely until I believe I pressed republish this blog button and it was down hill after that. So here goes with a new blog page
