It’s the rubber boot that seals the shaft inside. It’s looking weird in fact, I’ll check it when off the boat. It looks like a cloth because of the desert dust stuck to it.

Looks like @Saul used it twice for his commute Now on the ferry, for what looks like quite a choppy ride to Spain. The guy tightening the bike down laughed and said I will definitely feel it I pray to any saint for no rain on the other side.

It was heavy rain through the hills in muddy roads, good stuff really, but would have prefered to stay dry. Now waiting in Tangier for a sandwich that’s taking forever and the ferry at 3. Was thinking of staying overnight somewhere near after but don’t really feel like more of the same rain in the morning. So will probably crack on. Bike is running great even though it lookslikeit was found in thebottom of a river bank.

Tanger now, plastic overalls aren’t really waterproof anymore. Tired of riding with shit gear in winter.

I’m writing a book about it in the form of a ride report I currently don’t think northern moroccan cities are nice places, though

You know how annoying it is when you close your jacket, helmet on, gloves on and then you realise that the bike keys are still in your pocket? It’s worse when they’re still in your pocket, but on the jeans that are inside your closed luggage! Been meaning to complain about myself doing this for a few days now

Sorry to hear all that, @busabeast!

Yesterday was fun. Today it was freezing cold in the morning, came to Fes but didn’t have a nice time here. Plan is to get to Spain tomorrow, don’t know where I ‘ll sleep though. Also expecting to get a lot of rain between here and home

That’s cool!

Dogs don’t check google.

Turns out there was a Spanish family watching the football when I proclaimed: vai, filho da puta! After their legend of a player scored the last penalty They look at me funny now

it was a lovely dish when it arrived, now there’s just the 4 olivepits in it.

What are you talking about? She’s lovely!

That white stuff on the picture was right near where I was going through, and wasn’t there a few days ago! I which I had a heated seat

I got a great video of the first few seconds after they scored their first goal after having saved the previous penalty kick. These guys are insane for football and I look forward to watching the Portugal match with them. It’s a shame I won’t be here for the Portugal vs Morocco, assuming we win today.

My bike fucking rocks!!!!

Major depression last night, today woke up at sunrise (8:00 ) and by 9 I was riding outof Marrakech like a moped rider! Heading for the offroad mountain pass again, buttheweatherwanted otherwise and I changed plans. Having defrosted, am Now about to have some chicken tajine with preserved lemons, some Moroccan white wine, and watch football on the tele with Mamoun and his friends! Tomorrow I head north, and towards Europe, before the real snow and rain comes.

For the proper cold and winter tipe thing you need, Dainese might not be the best either.

Today was amazing argan trees, the great Tizi n Test pass, rock slides, massive winds, flirting with women at argan cooperatives’ shops, and Marrakech traffic and the medina. Good stuff. Will save pictures for the report but here’s two

You go and punch one guy after a hard day at work and you never hear the end of it! This deleting people thing never stops, was it even vegan cheese in the offered sandwich?

It’s “your eyes”, since you’re being corrected…

It’s not Dainese, it’s a wolf. He couldn’t pull Dainese devil cool!

Also, non gay boots don’t have zippers on them!

If those boots are anythinglike my old Dainese ones, the soles are shit and they will improve immensely when you replace them with good rubber ones.

Like when you used to ride with no heated grips before trying them! I ride mostly in jeans so my ballsack and arse do get cold sometimes, so I'd love a heated seat and if BMW had them when I bought my bike I'd have specced them in.
