So Falkor turned 10. I trolled through a couple of thousand pics and choose the ones that, for me, showed the adventures, the road trips, the friendships made, the wonders of Australia seen, the adversities overcome, and really... just a lot of bike pics - for those who are thrilled by such things :)
I hope you enjoy this trip down 10 years of memory lane.
