Zorro elected as spinner at 2-up

Sadly, the stunning weather from Easter didn’t last through to the following weekend (another long one). ANZAC day dawned wet and our planned ride up to Mt Victoria fell through.

Who is the Pillion Passionista?

Who am I? Probably not who you imagine. Nothing like the cliched 'bikie chick', certainly.

I grew up in the middle-class leafy north shore of Sydney, worked in the corporate world for many years, and left my mid-life crisis behind me some miles back.

She rides with her partner "Zorro" in Sydney, Australia - the greatest city in the world (at least when the sun is shining and the roads aren't jammed).
