You named the blue dildo George Clooney?

Will someone go and buy a moped with pedals just to mess with @YamaHead ?

Submissions will be closed tomorrow between 17:00 and 18:00. I’m sure it’ll be the highlight of our collective weekends. Hey @Saul, no submission?

I dealt with this shit today It looks cleaner now, if you look at it from across the street. Also took the old E30 for it’s mot, which it passed with only 1% difference between left and right suspension and brakes in both axles, I think their machines are fucked Also gave it a wash, last one was a while ago, and although it never sees any rain it did make a substantial difference. Tomorrow meeting up with @JustaPor for lunch somewhere on the bikes.

That’s why you’re the man!

This wouldn’t have happened if @Six30 had stepped up.

I don’t know what that is, but scooters are ok, small displacement motorbikes with pedals are allowed if they are motorcycle like, andmotorcycles are allowed. Bicycles are not, because they are primarily a bicycle in spirit, looks and function.

Yes, because it is a motorcycle.

It’s still a bicycle.

It’s a good thing, that you don’t judge his lifestyle.

pictures with the mark on them … you’re not buying any, are you?

I showed the GS how you improved your Harley with an angle grinder, and it didn’t dare to leak anymore.

So, two days ago, woke up and swiftly headed out before it got too warm. As I got just down the road I stopped to check I hadn't forgotten my laptop, stopped by the lake and the water level was maxed out, good! Alentejo is the Spring: Alqueva lake on a clear warm spring day. I took my usual dirt road detour next to the lake to check if I could spot Malaquias, the older gentleman I met here last time. His car wasn't in his property but his two big guard dogs were, so I carried on. A couple of hours later, and I'm getting to the Algarvian hills, on the other side is the ocean and my desired lunch destination. I love these roads but sometimes the tarmac is very rough, being municipal managed roads they vary a lot in quality from one spot to the other. My destination, for a plate of clams. Lunch was my only plan, I didn't feel like waiting around a long time to then get into an overpriced hotel in the touristy Algarve, the 25th April is a holiday in Portugal so along with the previous weekend's Easter holiday it was bound to be seen as high season. I pondered riding back home but and rang a friend in Faro and he had no plans for that night, so I took advantage of his hospitality and headed over. On the way to Faro I found this amazing minuscule road that for 7 or 8km is probably the best road in the region: Faro was warm, it got to 29º that afternoon making it the first warm day of the year. The night was pure Algarve in the way the it was very warm with no wind, we went out to dinner and drinks in the town, and got to bed by 4am. In the morning, we rode up to the hills for a goodbye espresso, and we parted ways. Stop to put on my sweater as the temperatures were definitely cooler today, and those clouds were low and no longer felt like summer. Didn't stop until I got to a usual dirt road shortcut, it's very pretty country there so worthy of a scenic stop. And that's it. Hadn't been on the bike for what felt like ages, I was really missing it so these 4 days felt very nice.

No report post from today, it’s been a long night figuring out geopolitical shit and am too tired.

Is it a GS?

Nice scenic spot!

Where are you going then?

How can the engine run fine if it doesn’t start?

No, but…

What part of ‘I’ll use the last one you post” don’t you understand?
