 When you stop and look back at some of the bridges you cross, its no wonder you don't tell your mother what you are doing.
These little river crossings take on a new dimension when you have a computer and digital camera in your luggage.
Bike, boat, me!
 View from a friends new restaurant near Rabaul. Notice the volcanic mountains in the background.
Camped on a bridge on a disused road in the middle of the jungle during the rainy season. Not much fun.

Did I mention that Mr BeEm weighs nearly 200kg. This one was quite spectacular in the background is a river. I was coming up the bank. The picture tells the rest of the story.
Washed out bridge near Gasmata. These concentrate the mind, believe me!
 The Beauty of a motorcycle is its "trasportablity". No roads, no bridges… put it in the banana boat and go.
Tranquil lagoon near Madang. All you need is a hammock between these two trees and you have the makings of a lovely afternoon.

Making out way down the ocean to by-pass a nasty stretch of road. Eg. No road and no bridge over this river or the next.
 Bialla service station - Mr BeEm always draws a crowd. These guys had seen the bike in the newspaper and each one touched his fuel tank as if he was a lucky budda.
Helicopter lift - BeEm hanging around with his friend "mix master" there's a story there.
