Cyclone Oma is heading towards The East coast of Australia.
Those Aussies who have their bikes on the ship, won't be very pleased that the ship is heading bang into the path of the cyclone as it heads to Singapore. :o

Read all the way to the bottom????????
The Arctic Ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places, the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a  report to the Commerce Department yesterday from the Consulate at Bergen Norway.
Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone.
Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes.
Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm.
Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well
known glaciers have entirely disappeared.
Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast shoals of herring and smelts which have never
before ventured so far north, are being encountered  in the old seal fishing  grounds.
Within a few years it is predicted that due to the ice melt the sea will rise and make most coast cities uninhabitable.
 

I must apologise.

I neglected to mention

this report was from November 2, 1922, as reported and published in The Washington Post 96 years ago.
This must have been caused by the Model T Ford's emissions or possibly from horse and cattle flatulence.
 
I?m a climate change supporter. I have found it changes 4 times a year.

Thousands of people in Australia have changed over to coal fired motor cars, so it seems we are doing our bit to reduce our country?s impact on climate change.

Fake
 
Actually not fake, just the last sentence and a few words.

This issue astounds me.

Get a hose and put it your car's exhaust pipe, then run it into the house. Multiply what ever comes out by at least a few billion a day then add all the smoke from industry and power stations then tell me what it's like to live there.

There's no escaping man is in the process of dropping a dirty great turd in his back yard and people can't/won't/refuse etc etc to accept it. The shit that we spew into the sky doesn't disappear via an exhaust flap in the atmosphere.

There's no elephant, just us.
 
Apparently it was a record breaking temperature for a winters day in Kew Gardens, London yesterday!
Nice sunny day and 21.2 oC

This record may be broken today as we still have a Jet Stream from the south.
 
Over 20C here in Getmany, the last few days have been really warm. I wore shorts yesterday afternoon.
Managed to ride 4 different bikes in the last four days. The Jota 120 was a treat, started easily and still goes really well....
Flying every day as well.
It won?t last, though.

Back to high 30s in Melbourne, with the 'lovely' howling hot northerlies to make it feel even 'nicer'.

The sceptics might not believe in climate change, but I reckon they'll warm to the idea. 
 
Got to 39C in Hobart today. Hottest March day on record. I was out on the Guzzi and it wasn't a pleasant ride, especially the stop-start bit going home through the city, with the heat rising up from the engine. I drank gallons of water and haven't had a piss all day - just sweated it all out.

I think I'm getting too old for clip-ons and rearsets. My back is not happy after today's ride.
