You think that phone is high enough, Pete?

Couldn't give two shits, a Tesla? It's easy to assume that a Honda engine powers a chinese bike when all they did was reverse engineer it and copy the design, it's an ugly industry.

Yes, that's great, buy that! It comes with yellow stripes on the wheels from the factory!

Ok, keep complaining then.

How much for the deposit? 500€? Just do it then and get it in 5 months like everyone else.

Don’t think that’s really available in the EU? I don’t bother with customs.

I would be interested in riding the same big trail style bike with both and knowing if I could tell the difference. If you want to buy one just put a deposit down and wait a few months, nothing else you can do. You can always complain for years though, but that won’t get you the bike.

The storm passing by a few days ago reminded me of riding back from Morocco last year, and a bit ago with Sofia in Northern Portugal, I got properly wet both times using my 20 year old rain overalls. Will order some tonight, anyone has any recommendations for rain plastic pants and jacket?

He’s one funny dude!

Are you interested in ordering one? Just do it then, you would have got it 6 months ago. This is the same as other manufacturers and parts, nothing works the same as before regarding supply chains. It’s got tubed wheels though, just letting you know.

If you want to buy a new one, just order it and get it 3 or 4 months later, what’s the issue?

What's that? For cycling events?

Gave the GS a little love in form of few new plastic parts, the supports for the luggage were quite worn down, plus a couple of cable holders and the two little rubber stops on which the seat rests. Looking prettier now, wondering if they will look like shit after the first few kms of dirtroad, maybe

Love the red head’s voice!

It’s certainly not photogenic, but it’s ok in person

Saw one a couple of days ago riding around my town. It’s not gorgeous but it’s not as bad as on the pictures here. Looks like what it is…

This is very interesting. What happened the next day?

Your cousin looks like he drives a truck for a colombian cartel. Hope he hunts for food, does he eat bear?

You’re the birthday boy?

No electrical switches to turn off power in your place? That sounds scary, a little more and that machine could have broken free and killed people.

Will you be roaring too?

Tell you what @MooN, for a ride report with not that many pictures, you did post the right ones to get a response

You wouldn’t know a holiday if it hit you in the face!

You think that where you live? You’re trying for more drama! I think this is all a ploy by Pete to try and get out of going out to dinner a couple of times with real people. You’ll go all the way to Spain to hang out in a deserted village for an hour and off you go
