At the age of 15 I bought my first motorcycle for R90. 00 - a second-hand Suzuki As 50. It was a major event in my life and it is hard to describe how liberated I felt, being able to travel far further and easier than I could on a bicycle. I have owned many motorcycles over the years and always had a love for scrambler, especially the 500 cc thumpers. My current motorcycle is the Honda 750 Transalp and it brings me a great deal of joy. Nothing better than a pleasant morning ride on a sunny day.

Travel log. Back in 2006 I had the privilege of taking my daughter Melissa to London and Paris. It was an incredible trip. We walked the streets of London, ate great food, visited the theater and met up with good friends.
Paris was a hoot and we stayed with my dear friend Herve Tardy, ate some amazing meals, visited the Louvre, the Notre Dame, the Eiffel tower and a day in Disney. We even saw the end of the Tour de France on the Champs-Elysees. Melissa explored Paris on her own, riding the tube trains while I chilled at coffee shops with a newspaper and croissant. In this photograph she is with Tommy Freshwater on the way to the Tate.
