Nine and a half weeks.

Not just a movie with Mickey Rourke in it but Monday September 7 2015 (which is nine and a half weeks away) is also the launch date for the 2015 version of the Ride for Nokor Tep in Cambodia.!!
What's up.
It can only be described as high octane despite the fact that nothing whatsoever is occurring.
That's all about to change!!!


I'm sending an email out today to everyone in my contact list today to get the ball rolling.
Boom boom boom , shake the room...


You've got that James Dean, daydream, look in your eye (or eyes?)
And i've got that red lip, classic, thing that you like
Taylor Swift


Now then , down to business...
I had previously thought that one of the great things about having an unstructured blog (unstructured inasfar as subject matter and timetable /regularity is concerned) was precisely that - it's not like a magazine or a newspaper where your editor texts you at 4.55pm. I tell you that as I got some feedback yesterday that some of people reading this shit want a bit of reassurance there will be daily updates for at least the days the ride is on so there's at least five (5) posts i've committed to - Monday 7th til Friday 11th September 2015.


In conjunction with the blog I'm also offering up an advice section this year so if you ride bikes or have been to Cambodia or ride bikes and have been to Cambodia or you are or have been or have thought about becoming a vegetarian feel free to email me with whatever your situation is that needs solving and i'll publicly put forward some helpful hints.  Obviously if they are work related problems you may need to get some input from HR as some "solutions" may qualify as high risk.


As big Grizzy (who most of you know) says, he's a modern man with traditional values so it'll come as no surprise when i say I might drag the big man in (on a consulting basis) if the problem proves  particularly vexing..


Ok, as has been the case in previous years, now that we are live... it's action time.


There have been over 5,000 page views on this blog so  whilst that's obviously not Kardashian level  numbers (and more on them later) there's clearly more than a few people out there with low entertainment thresholds.


Comment on the blog itself or email me on johnquinn@yourclaim.com.au to say hello - the ride has been physically quite demanding in previous years -  the more people who make contact and give me some shit to work with the easier it is to prioritize and spend some time on the blog.


Back soon.

  2. Hi John, as a fully paid up member of the Taylor Swift Fan Club I can confirm it is "eye" & not "eyes". Mine's a FW, thanks.

  3. Thank you for that Ed, in addition to great taste in music you "clearly" have a keen "eye" for detail. Taylors on Tinder so I wouldn't completely rule out her joining you and I for a flat white ...
