Might be a case of the bullshit, Marcel?

Update on my mudguard extension. I rode 300km on very wet motorways and there is a significant difference on the amount of water that gets thrown into the back of my upper legs. It’s a success as far as I’m concerned, compared to stock. Riding in rain still sucks!

Is it an illusion or is that garage really tiny in height? Can you fit a van in there?

What I have planned is tomorrow’s dinner: pork and red wine, two things in short supply for the few days after

I am pumped in a mix of unpleasant apprehension and excitement. Spent the day at home, did a little work in the morning, plus washed the bike, packed my stuff only waiting for the laptop to go in, all ready to go tomorrow. Then tried to book a ferry only for FRS's system to be acting up, called them and ended up booking one for thursday. This way I avoided the stress of technical difficulties and tomorrow will leave the house using tiny roads instead of the motorway. I'll have a first night still in Portugal after riding either to the inner Alentejo or the Algarve, depending on the weather. Then on Thursday it'll be a quick 350/400km ride to the ferry that I'm going to try and board at 12:00 Portuguese time, might be tight and if late I'll spend 4 hours waiting for the next one. Also called the hotel where Maria passed away to try and arrange a short visitation, not wanting to commit to a room before being there communication was being very difficult as the Moroccan on the other side wasn't at all getting what I wanted. I'll leave it to the moment when I get there. It's half a mile after getting out of the boat so I can't help but face that head on. After all that I had a shower and prepared for dinner, to then realize it was only 15:30. My mind is absolutely racing and it seems today is taking twice as long, I'll have some wine tonight! Also realized I can't pack worth shit! We used to take the same stuff in double, but somehow I'm ending up with the same space used for what should be way less

Happy birthday Phil!

Was it a joke I missed?

Mind your own business! You´re like the nosy old lady next-door

A friend is coming over for dinner, it's going to be very gourmet. Frozen pizza and beer

Made it to my home today, after more than two months away. Put some washing on and even though it's not too cold light up a fire to put some heat and dry air in the house. It's been closed for that long and it has rained quite a bit. Tomorrow's job is calling most of my clients in the morning, then packing up everything to take to Morocco, and if the weather is ok I'd like to wash the bike as I rather take a clean bike out even if it's getting dirty again later on. Would also like to go buy some extra ear plugs, but mostly just packing up and getting stuff ready.

It's a normal toll booth.

Fitted on the bike it's TKC70, on the back they are Mitas E07+, the front tyre is a 120/70-19

Yamaha R125 in a dark dealership while I go up from the shop to get coffee. Surprised how big and well built it looks for a 125.

Took this picture yesterday, right after watching an older dude slowly entering the motorway going on the wrong direction. No news about it so nobody died.

So, Marcel, did your dad like mustard on his steak?

I’ll make a point of it!

Is this what they call cabin fever, Marcel? So far the only good in this thread is Raquel Welch.

Yours will never make it to that mileage. The reason that one does is that they drive it a lot, if you heat cycle things 100 times more they’ll never last as long, never mind the time limit on plastic parts.

Replacing the oil, didn’t need to but I feel better leaving and not coming back right on the limit of 10000km oil use. Also there are a few water drops on the beak. Can’t have that!

15 minutes waiting for the garage to open. This raining thing is not really my thing though

There would have been no reason to evolve

It's absolutely pouring down. Picked my brother up from the airport yesterday night so my dog didn't wake ME up early today, so slept a little more. 08:30 tomorrow I'll be at the dealership with the GS, with this weather it'll be an interesting motorcycling day. I hate riding in the wet and am no good at it. Might take the chance to investigate on a better fitting set of rain over pants and jacket, mine is very practical but is 2 sizes too big so it does get tiring if facing a long motorway ride. I do trust in Saint Peter for nicer weather from wednesday onwards ...

Warm muff, or cozy muff, that's what you want on a cold motorcycle.

The Homos invented climate change, sold it to the guys before who believed them and look where that got them
