Motorcycles aren’t just machines—they’re a way of life. My name is Don, a motorcycle enthusiast from Brisbane, Australia. Whether its exploring mountain roads and hidden byways on weekends, touring long distances, daily commuting, or servicing bikes in the garage, motorcycles always seem to be at the center of my world.
With a Master’s Degree in engineering and years of experience as a professional engineer designing and developing agricultural and horticultural machinery, I know my way around mechanics—but motorcycles are my true passion. My garage is home to a 2011 BMW R1200R Classic, a 2001 Triumph Sprint ST 955i, and a Honda CB650R. No ties to BMW, but I do love their motto: "Make Life a Ride".
If you love motorcycles—riding, restoring, or working on them—you’re in the right place. Subscribe for my in-depth restorations, hands-on repairs, the stories behind these machines, and, of course, the best part—the tours, explorations, and the rides!
