The summer is over, school's awaiting me soon. I've quit FH Rosenheim and inscribed at the University of Salzburg. I can now live at home the whole week again, close to Johanna. Courses start from October 6th on. I've spent about 5 weeks working on a 1966 Simson Schwalbe scooter. It's yellow, runs quite good (max speed is 65 km/h) and sounds like hell. It's fun to drive through Berchtesgaden with it. Johanna, her family and I were on vacation in Lignano, Italy in late August for two weeks. Such a wonderful time with J.

Johanna's dad Rainer brought four old (2x 1966, 1974 (all 'Schwalben') and one 1986 SR50) Simson motorbikes home last week. We started to restaurate Johanna's first. Quite a horrible bike which cost 160,- EUR. Too much and the auctionator at EBay didn't tell every damage it had. He even wrote that it was in good state. It surely wasn't. Rainer's trying to get some of the money back. Anyways we took it to pieces and already gave it a new color. Engine and electric will be done next weekend I hope. Rainer got quite an exercise after the two machines the worked at earlier. Of course I got one of the four machines too. A 1966 Schwalbe. A real oldtimer :-) I want to paint it with some Bonsai-Airbrush and get a trailer for it. It will be my bonsai-vehicle =-)
