Pedro

You wouldn't want to ride behind that once he gets going

It's a chorizo The rest of it was used on peas

more or less the same thing

After Buckster's entry, this is never going to be the same, but here it goes anyway: Pennyroyal and oregano seasoned local farmed tomato salad, plus canned horse mackerel with my garden's amazing coriander, sliced onions and the neighbor's lemon's zest, with olive oil. The result is a lot better than the sum of the parts. THE tagliatelle "cacio & pepe", first time I got it properly right. Using a very nice truffle infused pecorino romano made it extra special. Alentejo blood chorizo and tomato rice, wild rice and white rice mix with my garden's fresh coriander. One of the tastiest things I´ve made for myself. Sourdough mix pizza, at Sofia's, from the ride report thread, not exactly round but proper tasty: For @boboneleg, "Queijo da Serra", buttery sheep's cheese from the Serra da Estrela, proper cheese! Squid rice, nothing fancy, oldschool portuguese and really great! The usual, roasted codfish and potatoes, plenty of onions and garlic, a classic on a rainy night

I believe you got stabbed by an ex wife wife in the uk, younger than that? Does that count? It's all ugly and not funny.

Domestic violence, as you know, is not funny. The way shops prioritize clients is, though (when it's not you)

Oh, yes, and this week they had holidays so they neglected Pete because he's not a saint! and I assume they got a couple of broken bikes from revving out all weekend in Jerez...

They spent last week with a very busy shop preparing bikes for their customers to take to Jerez for the weekend, so they neglected Pete because he is a brit and not going to Jerez!

The wheels, with the 19 front, look out of proportion to me, looks like a fashion thing. Sofia had a sit on a less expensive "urban" something with cast wheels and that looked ok in person, like it wasn't trying to be something it's not.

why is that, Bob? They look kind of weird to me.

So do I Sat on a Multistrada 950 the other day, and it felt wrong in a cheap chinese way, like a triumph 800 gt tiger, a V4 felt nicer but hard and not comfy, looking forward to a ride on one of these. Enough for me to endure calling a Ducati dealership!

He’s clearly been saving them for when they’re “really” needed

They can't find a big enough top box

Rode from beautiful and cool seaside Ericeira to my home today, where it's hot and summery. The plan was to ride straight over since I have work to do, but in the middle of it got distracted by a short dirt road near the Montejunto area and went to see some more windmills. Had a bit of a moment going uphill in a narrow rocky dirt road where things got a little too uphill and bumpy for my taste, front wheel briefly in the air in first gear had me wondering about how smart it was doing that in a fully fueled 30 liter GS with luggage on , so I stopped for a breather. As is the norm, looking at the picture of the way in it looks like you can drive a Ferrari up there ... 619km on the range indicator: My home somewhere in the distance there, behind the bike: A km or so after and got back to tarmac, in all it was only about 3 or 4 km offroad but were quite interesting. Temperatures increased as I got over the hills going inland and suddenly it's 28º Stopped by the supermarket for fruit and improvised a topcase Got home and made sure my peaches are doing well in the sunshine: And so are the almonds: And that the little birds have finished furnishing their home for this year and have hatched already, you can't really see them though:

BMW 700 with a big top box, huge, potentially with a back rest.

My bet is a 750 of sorts, with a big ugly top case!

I think it’s going to be another BMW A twin, maybe.

The flour got turned into dough, and pizza Despite the frown I captured on both of the female’s faces, it was delicious.

Yes, pay someone 500 Euros to take it away, great deal!

It's a plastic bag, to prevent the paper bag containing flour getting wet

I would go on the same website you bought it from and sell it for 500€ less than what it cost you!

I’m in awe!
