Garage update

Believe it or not, this is actually a significant improvement of my garage; For the first time in ages the garage floor is visible!

A new tool trolley has found its way into the garage, birthday present to myself back in April.

I've also invested in new tools.  

Now I must only get the time to use them...

Roughnecks Rideout Oltedal - Kverneland 27.06.2010

For some stupid reason I forgot the camera on this rideout. Anyway. I would like to welcome Eirik as a new Roughnecks member!

Update 05.08.2010: Picture...

Roughnecks Rideout Sandnes - Ims - Høle

Life is good! 13 days past due the little princess arrived, and we can now officially call ourself a family. It's been a hectic two weeks, and things are finally settling down, so I actually got time to join a rideout with Roughnecks this Sunday!

Weater was perfect! The trip went from Sandnes - Ims - Høle - return.

Affi & Mr. President...

One happy camper a.k.a. Dad... 

Congratulations to Affi, getting his 8" wheel Vespa back on the road with a rebuilt engine!

A very nice rideout indeed! 

Dad 2 be

Due to other necessary priorities I haven't been very active on the scooterscene here in Stavanger so far this year. We are expecting a little princess any time now, actually we are 4 days past due. Having several home improvement projects going, I need to focus on getting them finished. Really looking forward to being a dad, but not really looking forward to spend the rest of the evening in the basement, sanding plaster walls...

So far, the little time spent in the garage has been to change oil on Regine and to take her out to commute to work. Also, I've finally got some sort of a homepage for Roughnecks Scooterclub up and running, but this will require much more work before I'm satisfied. Hopefully I will get more time to work on Ferdinand this summer, but how far I will progress here is uncertain.

I am still attending this years scooterevent, Classic Scooterrun 2010 Trondheim, looking forward to this!

Desireable things

My girlfriend and I are expecting a little princess medio May, so I've been rather busy lately with all other things than my own scooters... I'm currently spending most of my spare time on home improvement and preparations for the little lady.

The leftover spare time I get for myself is mostly spent in front of the computer... *geek*

Anyway, as the new IT/web responsible for Roughnecks Scooterclub, I've spent a great deal of my geek time sourcing the web for scooter related info. Roughnecks Scooterclub is currently without a homepage, and I have willingly agreed to start design one, along with a club logo. I'll report on this work in the time to come!

It's fascinating what you can find on the web; I leave you with some desireable objects for hard core scooterist's homes:

Starting off with something for my little princess! Doesn't look cheap!

 

Wish I had one of those when I was two...

A new lamp for the office?

Perhaps a new chair as well?!

Believe it or not: This Vespa is all carbon fibre...

*Pure desire*
