Found a nice place in a dark place, under the Gold Star bridge that crosses the Thames river in New London. An historic old mill from way back. Surrounded by bridges and ghetto .

......is now featuring @Grasshopper's Ride's Himalayan!

?? WOW......I just told Bagheera the news and he is very happy. We just wanted to thank everyone who voted and for all the support. This was a tight race and I would like to say, great job to all those who entered. Long Live the Himalayan! ?? I should have gone into politics.....

Congratulations @Grasshopper's Ride, Bagheera is Adventure Motorcycles' Bike Of The Month for August 2020, a rare but very sought after honor. You have it in you to honor everyone with a few words, if you wish to do so. Don't rest on your laurels, though! September is going to be fierce in competition and so far no-one has kept this title for a second month. Do you think you have what it takes?

ohhhh my little darlings..... ? REPRESENT ??? Already thinking of locations for this month's contest.....

Congratulations Michelle!

Good win that truck vid was over the top.

This reminds me, Adventure Motorcycles Bike Of The Month is run on Lisbon time, because fuck you to the rest of the world. London is on the same time, so as luck had it you are in synch.

You may remember that I mentioned that I was contacted by a Brit guy who lives about 15 miles from me about a month ago. I've never met him, but he's got a Strom and wanted to meet up. I told him I was going to find Retamalejo and that it may get a bit hard. And never heard any more. Well I did find it, it was hard.......and I got heatstroke! Anyway, he just contacted me again and wanted to meet up for a coffee on Sunday. I told him that I go out to ride......and have no interest in going in bars (particularly now Covid is back). However, I did tell him that I'm planning to try and find this abandoned village in the Sierra de Segura on Sunday if he's interested? But I added the disclaimer that I've no idea how rough it's going to get......just to make him aware of what he's getting himself into. And that's absolutely true......it may be straight forward or it could be The Road of Bones! But at least it's forecast to be cooler so dehydration and heatstroke shouldn't be a factor this time. No reply so far......just see what happens. But I'll be going......this has been planned out for some time. So what are you lot up to?

A meeting of two genocidal fascist dictators.......and Yen's looking for personal grooming tips! It could only happen on here!

I think a tour of the ghost towns, haunted areas and old gold mines around here would do well. There are lots of local ghost tours that are popular . The Stanley Hotel in Estes Park is one of the more famous ones: https://www.stanleyhotel.com/night-tour.html . It's the hotel that inspired Stephen King to write "The Shining" . But there are loads of ruins, etc that could make up a week long riding tour.
