They say that the only way to keep something a secret is to not tell anyone else. As soon as it’s shared, it’s no longer a secret. But, I have to tell someone who won’t tell my riding buddy. You see, I’ve ordered a new bicycle. I want to surprise him by turning up on it and that might happen on Friday. It’s nearly the same colour as the bike I currently ride, so there’s no need to buy a new shirt to match the bike. Its the End of Financial Year sale so the pricing was about $400 less than new price. The current ride has done 12,000+ km since I’ve had it, and I have no idea how much work it did beforehand, but it did need a number of things fixed immediately. Anyway, the promise to myself was that George would be replaced after getting to 10k km. Second hand was the idea, but a good second hand bike would cost around the $1k mark and would probably need some work. The new bike is just over that. The model is Ventura, so this bike’s name will be Ace. OK, now you know the secret I’m holding back, don’t tell Steve. Regards, P.S. For those of you who bother to read this far here’s another secret. At the bottom of this page there is a link to the book I’ve just completed about how to write apps with AI. https://rbc.livecodehosting.com/blog. That link will not be live for long, perhaps gone by the end of the weekend if not sooner. |
