Decisions

Wednesday 10th November 2010 – When I returned to Melbourne I was in a bit of a quandary about whether I should sell the bike and get a car. Because I’d be here for a month, it would give me time to sell it, but, surprisingly, I found I wasn’t that keen to do that just yet. However, I explored all the options, like buying or renting a car, putting the bike on motorail, leaving the bike in somewhere like Brisbane then flying to Whyalla, but none of them were going to be that easy or inexpensive. Then, yesterday, I decided to see what I’d get for the bike if I sold it. I took it back to the place I’d bought it and it turned out they weren’t buying any new stock and, even if they had been, I’d have only got about half of what I’d paid for it. So this put an end to my swithering and I decided to keep it. Funnily enough, I found myself feeling enormously relieved with this decision. Guess I wasn’t ready to give up the adventure just yet!
