All Activity

Haven't been here before although it's only a few miles up the road but plenty to see.

You won’t find any crucifixes or statues there. I agree that that place is very plain by Roman Catholic standards though.

Quite austere by Roman Catholic standards. You need to take a photo of the temple you go to ............

Don't get your hopes up to high..still haven't found the cord to download with or a proper way to mount it on the bike...

For @Pedro

In a temple of idolatry by the looks of it.

Still nice here ☀ we have no shopping to do, so it's a afternoon of BSB racing.

Pissed down all morning here so cancelled the run up to Kitt Hill and ended up taking the Mrs to Bodmin for shopping. That's the day ruined.

Morning arrived with rain, and plenty of it And under that weather we first tried some small country roads in the mountains, to then escape that with a beeline to the hotel for that evening. Arriving earlier than planned, we took a look at the local porcelain factory and museum. Took this picture just for you lot That evening we stayed in a lovely hotel, and caught an uber to go out for a typical great meal. All was well, in the morning we left with a promise of improving weather, but somehow that turned the other way and got worse. I, in a flash of optimism caused by some brief visions of blue skies turned up a mountain and that turned out to be a big mistake. Up there the promise of blue skies quickly turned into dark low clouds, and after a few minutes, snow fall. I didn't stop for pictures, the snow was falling quite heavily and the roads were suddenly with 4 to 5 cm of it, I was worried that by stopping it would quickly get to unrideable conditions, plus the mood wasn't for stopping and enjoying the views. Slowly, but as quickly as possible, we went down the mountain and out of the snow, to dive into a restaurant and warm up with hot soup and a great grilled steak. Properly warmed up, again we pointed the bikes towards a warm shower, made it to Porto in little more than an hour, that night we ate some tapas and listened to a little Fado. Next morning arrived, and we were heading up the Douro river. As we got ready to get out of the underground parking garage, we could hear the rain starting to pour outside A few moments, later, stopped in a very wet Porto while people were putting on their rain overalls. Two or three hours later of riding under lots of rain, we reached the high Douro and stopped to enjoy a deserved break in the weather. Clouds were moving very quickly, so whatever sunshine we had was brief. We rode the other 30 to 45 minutes up to our stay for the night, in a farmhouse, and braved the last kms of farm service roads. Great views on the roads to get there and upon destination. Over a nice meal watered with the farm's own wine, we ended our tour. The following day we faced some more moody skies on the way back home.

Go for it Moose man , the other bloke was a let down

The temp is suppose to clear by noon...foggy at the moment...found a cord for the go pro it's charged up...but the lid for the camera mount is busted...trying to figure something out..

I can dig it!

Doesn't look like I'll be out.......the wife had a bad night with her back after the trip to Albox! So potentially it could involve a trip to A&E today.

I think it is a church....been in one twice, last time I went into a church I would rather forget about the whole event.

Guess where I am this morning

Same kind of job + clutch cover repair...

Not a cloud in the sky!...and feels reasonably warm out there!.......it can't be a Bank Holiday weekend surely!.
