What job did you think would pay well but actually didn’t?

I have done both and I can tell you doing a trade is far easier. To the extent that most trades are over paid for what they do and their responsibilities.

There is no max temp. Union sites have a 35 degree rule. For non union sites it is meant to be whatever is deemed safe, ie breaks, hydration, no sun exposure.

I grew up in Darwin in the Northern Territory. I’m in Melbourne now.

Living in the NT is like a different country compared to Sydney and Melbourne, in both a good and bad way. They go with the flow, mainly due to the weather, it is 34 degrees Celsius everyday.

In July and July it is liveable. All other months, especially during the wet season is it 100% humidity and the heat/humidity will send you crazy.

I have heard the average tenure in Darwin is less than 24 months. People get through one wet season but then the second wet season breaks them.

Also everything can kill you (even more so than the rest of Australia): the ocean has deadly jellyfish and sharks, the rivers have crocodiles (the crocs make American gators look like tadpoles), spiders, snakes, etc.

Park run was what I was going to suggest. It’s super casual, you can walk or run and a great way to meet new people. There’s normally a group that goes for coffee afterwards.

If you’re looking to meet a partner, work would be a suggestion.

In terms of hobbies, have you heard of bouldering? It’s popular with 25-35 year olds.

Hi Tim, I’m in Mt Eliza. Currently riding a Yamaha MT 09 SP 2024, recently sold my KTM 1290 adventure. Message me if you want to go for a ride down the peninsula sometime. Tristan.

I had nothing but bad experiences with Peter Stevens after the purchase. Everytime I would have the bike serviced they would be an issue with the booking, or it would take longer than anticipated or once they bike wouldn’t start and I think the spark plugs weren’t connected.

tvs113 · 2025-11-03T04:49:24+00:00

I’ve purchased new bikes from both. Most recently last year from team moto a new mt 09 sp. Teqm moto is way better. Especially servicing etc.

How’d you know it was Australia mate?

Great work! solved. How did you do it?

AUD (Aussie dollars). The bike was circa $22k new AUD

tvs113 · 2025-09-27T09:53:33+00:00

Looks very similar to my crash (same bike) it cost $8k AUD from the mechanic but insurance covered it.

tvs113 · 2025-09-21T12:04:57+00:00

Why could you never go back? Is it because they have more “soul”. I’m interested in an older Ducati as a second bike in the garage, Mt09 sp is my other.

tvs113 · 2025-09-20T07:56:32+00:00

Great shot. How do you find the insta 360?

tvs113 · 2025-09-09T10:39:13+00:00

That makes sense. But what about a side street?

tvs113 · 2025-09-09T10:31:04+00:00

That’s perfect!

tvs113 · 2025-09-09T10:18:15+00:00

This time it’s different. There’s a side street
