Procrastination finally beaten.....

for ONE thing on the list LOL.  Two years ago Marcus and I took 2 bikes to the beach for a hoon.  Unfortunately it all ended in tears when the clutch fucked out on my mudbug, waaaaaaaay down the beach with an incoming tide and having to push the useless thing back to the vehicle.  Well Marcus had a few wee hissy fits trying to get HIS bike up the beach too and it got laid down in the sand a few times while he was having these hissy fits.  Not a good end to what had been a good day, and then the mudbug broke it's stand in the float coming home and crashed over into Marcus's wee bike which had a grinding noise afterwards in the back end, long story short they both got parked up and forgotten for a while.

Then I got a 2nd motor and clutch off Mal, who'd I'd bought the mudbug off (not that I've done the clutch yet!!!) so they were still sitting there.  About a year ago and boy wanted to ride his bike so he pushed it outside, I kicked it over for him, lo and behold it started but it was pissing fuel out the air filter, so it got parked up again and the carbie ripped off it.  A few months later I mentioned it to Jim (who lives round the corner) and he said bring the carbie round, he'd pull it apart and clean it out (figured it had shit from the beach in it LOL) which it did and I've had that carbie back ready to go back on the bike for at least 6 mths.

Well TODAY, I finally put the carbie back on the bike!!!!  (and in the meantime somehow the grinding back end fixed itself hahaha) it kicked straight over once the fuel was there again and the boychild had a great time ripping round the paddock on it.  It was wonderful to watch and by the way his knees are up around his ears I'm wishing I hadn't procrastinated so long and glad I didn't procrastinate any longer!  He's grown like a weed!!!!

And there were two people out there smiling today, and laughing when the whooping and hollering started, and laughing when he pulled up with mud splattered all over his face.  Good thing is it's back on the road so there'll be plenty more fun to be had for the kid again.  Now, to get the clutch on the mudbug done!!!  Good things take time ;)
