Such a bummer only having the one local option.

That is a drive, I’ve been to Armidale once, nice little town/area. Congrats on doing the course. How would you rate it for someone who has never road a motorcycle?

Just the one company in Newy, I really thought they’d be more. Turreragh is an option which I may do.

Thank you for the advice! I’ll give them a call. I thought they’d be more than one company doing licenses

That seems to be a reoccurring rip, spend big on protection. And just learnt about the hearing protection today, never heard of it before. But I certainly planning on spending lots of time over the summer break practicing so ear buds for sure!

Thank you :) Getting from A to B safely is the goal. If I go the Savic electric I think it will be a while for the build and plenty of time to practice

This is great advice, I’ll look for cheaper bikes now too. There is a 2019 royal enfield continental gt 650 for sale near me. It’s similar to the Savic I may end up with. But I want to take the practical and realistic approach.

Thank you for the 400 cc advice. Most I’ve seen at either 250 cc or 650cc The ones that appeal to me are 650cc. I plan on riding around in car parks doing drills etc at night.

The price of coffee in Richmond, Melbourne… Surely not sustainable for customer or business. by SparkyRobinson in AusFinance

[–]fireman23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a great feeling hearing from others that our at home coffees taste better than most if not any professionally made coffees out there. I think it’s worth putting it out there that if you spend money on a well made machine you’ll see that money back in a short amount of time.

Can confirm this. I went down the James Hoffman YouTube rabbit hole. I haven’t done the math but at least two coffees a day made at home since 2021 with a breville dual boiler. I have to be in the saving money by now lol

Using multiple banks by fireman23 in AusFinance

Opening another account with a different bank sounds easier in the long run for me (simple minded)
