Make stuff. Bikes, snow & coffee!

@australian What a joke! Stop hurting Australians. Fix multi national companies paying taxes. Fix resource companies paying for what they take. Create a sovereign wealth fund, invest it and pay dividends and interest to all Australians. Add a few zeros to the $250 insult.

@SenMcDonald Do your job and represent Australians. Tax the gas companies at 75%

Built a website https://t.co/EpvSZWDWyH to tell my truck's story and to do some good.

I also made some merch... mostly for me 😁, but if you do buy something, the funds go towards my next moto aid mission abroad, which I love doing even more than the Scout.

Whether you like the guy or not, he certainly has a great point here!

@simonhackett @TeslaAUNZ @Tesla Agreed. We also just want what we paid for.

@TheCinesthetic No try moving from Australia to the USA and seeing this in the cinema in your first month there and you leave the cinema questioning everything.

@punterspolitix how about the puppets looking out for their own on EVs while the rest of the country get nothing

@Casey Roasted... creatives still hold the ingredients to great storytelling...at least for now 😬

@elonmusk I've loved riding Motos in remote countries, Kazakhstan has been on the list. Nice to know Starlink is there if needed. Adds a layer of safety and risk mitigation to expeditions. Let's goooo!

@PalmerLuckey @modretrohub @gamestop @Tetris_Official @KossHeadphones Just watched the @Casey video. Make it 101 people who give a shit now. Plus 3 more aussie kids when I show them tomorrow as well.

Moto expeditions into remote Mongolia have a special place in my heart. Here are some moments from my rides I edited together. It's raw and real, no AI here, just vast landscapes and some of the best riding in the world.

@maniaUFO Funny. This is from Artist Richard Lord.

@AlboMP Excellent taxes and royalties on Gas, Oil & the rest of Mining Multi Nationals like Santos to the tune of sovereign wealth for Australia to match levels the rest of the world achieve. Cut the BS. This should be #1 on the list. Get to it and do your job.

[Matt Bates @mattebates]

@Casey I have two. The short and long. Still sad they went out of business.
