Shit! As bad as that?

Yeh.....Honda really nailed it with their 60's advertising!

No.....I'm talking about taking pics in general within the context of motorcycling. Have you ever visited AdvRider? Amazing resource for travelling and touring etc.

Well to me, memories like this from Summer 78 are priceless. Especially as I haven't been able to find him since 2004. I don't even know if he's still alive! Things like this are all I have left now.

Now this is where you miss the point of this forum, and others like it. It's called Adventure Motorcycles! Now that doesn't mean it's only for guys with GS's, KTM's etc.......and neither does it mean it's offroad based. It's for people who go out on the bike and ride, who travel (long or short distance), visit places, and do things. And when possible, record what they do be it in pics or vids. Because in the future those things will bring back the memories. And there could be a time when that's all we'll have left. In the short term it's great for others to see the environment that other members live in. It's not some new concept.....some of us have been doing it for years. But of course it's so much easier now with modern technology.

We need a Ride Report Caroline......no more Miss Casual for you young lady!

I can't help noticing that the only Ride Report from those members who came in from another forum has come from @Richzx6r. Let me explain the problem here.......It's going to look like a bunch of Casuals have followed me here from the other place......and that's not going to help my street cred! I need every bit I can get at my age! But before you think you're being singled out (you're not......things don't work that way on this forum).....we also haven't seen one yet from @Buckster! Who's been here a year! The newer members have been here 3 months, but it's also been Winter, plus Covid restrictions have been in place! So there are mitigating circumstances! So if the newer members do get labelled as Casuals, I think we need to acknowledge that Buck is truly "The King of the Casuals". And @Six30......I'm waiting for one from you in particular! You need to show you've got more strings to your bow than just being a Forum Troll!

Usk or Monmouth!

The logic behind this one is completely lost on me!

You've got to go into Hospital then @yen_powell......how long for?

That's my life anyway!

The vaccination roll out is down to the individual country.....if Britain was still in the EU their vaccination rate wouldn't be any less.

Have you had yours yet Tym?

Spain opts to use AstraZeneca vaccine for 60- to 69-year-olds Fuckmine! Now I'm going to have one of them instead of a Pfizer!

Nice one Yen! What a weird looking house though......must be worth some dosh surely?

Just when you think nobody can match Kawasaki for bizarre advertising concepts......Honda steps forward!

Hard roads Michelle......lot of concentration needed. You make an error there and you're over the edge! And there's no mobile coverage because it's so remote.

Spain is 1 year for cars and 6 months for vans (€35), 2 years for bikes (€30).

18c but quite windy Bob.......so I was getting blown about a bit!

You know the drill Phil! Pics and/or Vid or it didn't happen! And anyway, you know you don't have the confidence to go out riding these days cos I'm not there to babysit you any more!

Unusually green as well!

That was actually Phil Read's wife at the time too!

Today I went over the top of the mountain towards Oria......and this road is a tricky one in places! It gets very narrow, has a variable road surface ranging from billiard table smooth to bomb crater, and at some points you have a sheer drop on either side. What's frustrating is that I'm still not allowed to leave the province so I can't actually get to Oria itself.........because in doing so I'd be crossing the border into Ameria! So it's literally over the mountain and back the same way! Not ideal, but it's better than being under house arrest!

Brilliant shots Eric!

Not sure what their logic was putting a very tall model with a very small bike. It just makes it look like a little toy!
