As you know, I have a passion for things on two wheels, Oscar my bike in Vietnam and all my bicycles here in Australia.  My new job has me driving 40 km each way for work and I have tried the train but getting to the train in the morning adds at least 15-20 mins onto my commute.  So, to solve this issue and to help with my passion, I bought a Lorry, a mini truck/van, now known solely as “The Little Lorry”.

Now you may laugh at this “Little Lorry” but it is fantastic, it has cruise control, Bluetooth, power steering, electric windows and enough pick up to get me out (or into) trouble.  It has sliding doors on both sides and the back opens right up.  Now the best thing is, we can fit our two mountain bikes in the back with both tyres on.  Niels has been a genius and soundproofed it and fitted it out so we can transport two bicycles in it.

Now you maybe asking about the need for the sound proofing.  Well I made a call using blue tooth while driving and the person on the other end asked where I was.  It sounds like I have the ocean behind me, hence the need for the proofing as it is all metal.

The other great feature of the “Little Lorry” is that we will be able to go camping in it by sleeping in the back.  Home away from home.  So if you see a “Little Lorry” while out cruising around, it could be me.  I will keep you posted on the adventures we have.
