'We live the only way we can now, one day at a time'

'I said on Michaela's wedding day that she picked well, and I'm beginning to realise every day since that she picked even better than I thought. He's just a gem of a man."

On Wednesday evening, Mickey Harte had just arrived at the Corpus Christi church in Moyross, Limerick, when he spoke about his son-in-law. In the evening sunshine, he looked tired but, as usual, immaculate in brown slacks and a blue blazer.

As he prepared to give an address to parishioners about bereavement and how to cope, people approached him and nearly all addressed him by his first name.

He warmly greeted each one and thanked them for their good wishes.

Then he spoke to some journalists and, as his quiet words tumbled out, onlookers realised just how much John McAreavey means to him. They have each other now.

Six months after his precious only daughter Michaela was brutally murdered in Mauritius , Mickey and John are on a journey together, a journey neither of them wanted.

Both men are clinging to their faith as they navigate the nightmare that has engulfed them with the murder of 27-year-old Michaela, allegedly killed by hotel staff on her dream honeymoon.

Last December 30, the Tyrone manager was the proudest man in the country when he gave away his daughter, a former Rose of Tralee contestant, in St Malachy's church in Ballymacilroy, close to the Harte family home.

Michaela and 26-year-old John's happy smiles dazzled all those who saw their wedding photograph when it made front-page news.

This week Mickey was doing his best to put the pre-trial proceedings of his daughter's alleged killers, which is currently taking place in Mauritius, to the back of his mind. Instead he focused on rebuilding a family life. The GAA boss, revered by his own Tyrone players and fans, is trying to fill his time, trying to fill the huge void left by her passing.

'Detached' was the word he used to describe his feelings towards the legal process in that country.

But it cannot be easy. Mickey was in Limerick to attend solemn novena celebrations, where he addressed a packed gathering on his experiences of bereavement.

In the months after the murder, he has tried to get some sort of family life back on track. The details of the murder inquiry and court proceedings can come at another time.

Moyross, a community that has suffered numerous tragedies, seemed an appropriate setting as Mickey spoke of his faith and belief in a higher power to help his family through.

Spoke Rear Wheel | Motorcycle Spare Parts

I want to start the project this summer after I rebuild my GPZ but need an opinion on wheels. Currently the CB has chrome spoke rims with a rear drum, I have a spare five spoke mag from my GPZ with a disk brake that I would like to use but the front mag I have is a seven spoke. I like the look of the mags but would a seven spoke on the front and a five spoke on the back look weird? I think the front wheel is 21" and the rear is 18" or sixteen not sure off hand. Or would it look better if I took the spoke rims apart, painted the rims and spokes, reassembled them and used those? I like the idea of having a rear disk but I'm not sold on the different mags. What's your opinion?

welcome another cafe' fan.the spoke chrome rim is more correct for a cafe or black rim with chrome spokes i would use a 19 front an an 18 rear. the honda 450 makes a great cafe.
