Are you scared it catches Covid?

I am undecided between Bob, Ian and Michelle, Bob for being a top guy, Ian for the amazing content of film worthy stories, and Michelle for being so sweet and all the ride report pictures. I'll wait a few days and see if my vote sways anything before casting it.

I voted for @Slowlycatchymonkey, wasn´t aware I was doing it covertly, she just somehow really annoys me with most of what she posts. I am still undecided if I change my vote for @XTreme, for trolling his own forum with useless questions, droning on about some other forum, and intrigues like the above.

I did pretty good. Work has been annoying but overall it turned out a pretty great year work wise, for me. Did a couple of great rides around Portugal, didn't turn out as expected but rode 10000km in 6 months so I guess I did more than I think. Emotionally, it's been an emotional rollercoaster and it's getting tiresome as I'm a little tired of dealing with my own moods, I'm in need of a couple of days by myself alone at home. I do hope 2022 brings a little more border relaxation and a trip to Morocco.

The plan must be that the owners of the old and new bikes can ride in the same group with little effort of the new bikes to keep up

This changes often, to me, what the prettiest bikes are. I have no interest in owning or riding them, but currently old school motocross bikes and dirt track bikes look so pretty to me: like this Husqvarna with it's beautiful tank and Honda Elsinore with just perfect proportions and colours: Or the Harley XR750 or any of the classic brits:

Indeed, everything about Christmas makes me sad. Except empty roads on the 25th, if the weather is good.

Christmas? Starting over the next few days until a few days after, it's a season I just close my eyes and wish it gone and over with. Might go for a ride, if the weather's nice.

I bet the 21 inch wheel version is miles better on rougher stuff and big bumps. The big wheels and normal forks will do great offroad. Lighter weight might help somehow but then again it isn't a huge difference. On road, the GS will be quite better, I think, specially if loaded or carrying a passenger.

Morgan, maybe?

I don’t really like them overall, but love that song.

I really like this

The grit indicates it's a clam

Might be ridiculous, but might it have been some sort of slug or whatever that somehow got into the tank?

In real life these look and feel like a chinese bike, from the pictures it looks like the riders took their kid's bikes out for a ride. These are KTM's take on making money on "cheap" bikes, next level to that shit twin +/-800cc they're selling.

I was going to ask what does fluffy mean, but it's actually pretty clear what you mean. Is fluffy a technical term?

Can't you get them to close access to him once and for all? It's getting embarrassing.

Indeed, 1.6 million! one hell of an opening, too

It's right there in his profile name

Or this

I like Bryan Adams as much as the next guy, but what the hell is with that "on the road on the road"? This is a "road" song:
