Pedro

You know, I think my english is usually better than that, but when you're talking and trying to match what you're saying to the image, and you're watching things moving at the same time, it somehow messes it all up and I become a mumbler. I hope the next one turns out better

And here's another video, 0:20 blows my mind!

and made a video of it. I made this video to figure out how it was to make a video with voiceover, it's fucking tiresome and frustrating that what it's like! I am annoyed just listening to myself speak, but if you have 10 minutes to spare you might want to see it. There are some good roads on there, you can turn the sound off ... This covers the first day of the ride me and @Sofia did a month ago, on this ride report from her:

Let’s get real, you can fit all the mudguard you want and ride nowhere else except an F1 track, you would still wash your bike.

Nice thing you stopped for a picture by that river, Pete! Such a mass of water commands respect!

They were indeed, or still are. However, didn't see many resemblance to the Duke of Wellington in those red faced guys in front of the airport wearing football t-shirts.

Value for money right there!

Yes, they were most kind in helping out little Portugal

Some of them did look worse for wear, but I suppose two straight days of drinking silly and being chased around by the cops must be quite the workout. Tell you what, though, they did live up to expectations

Although fast isn’t really my thing, those deserted straights really have some attraction to them, the pull of the desert and all that.

Drove my little brother to the airport just now. Fucking brits everywhere!

I suppose it wouldn't matter on a Harley

As for riding with a pillion, I think they are also quite suited from a rider's perspective with how they deal with the extra weight.

I never cooked it, my mother and grandmother did while growing up. I have more fun cooking vegetables than meat except on the grill.

Thing is, I ate a lot of rabbit growing up, don't really like it as a meat so prefer to hide it behind a strong sauce.

Not good for saute, you want them stewed ... little bit of tomato, onions, red wine, ...

About the leashes? Talking about keeping the little guys from escaping out.

Can you put cat leashes on rabits for when you want to move vehicles in and out? resisting the joke about onions, carrots, red wine sauce and potatoes

That looks like Porto just an hour ago, before the match started

It's still a road (not race) engine, and a Honda, so even if it's been through hell it's probably good, having said that, if you're not going to use the wheels why buy it? I would go for a pampered one instead, if it was my money. The thought of it having been abused would always be on my mind, that is supposing you would keep it for a long time. Having talked to a few people with pillion experience in a few bikes, there is no comfort for a pillion like a BMW rear suspension and seat (more so on bad roads), be it a GS or an RT.

I rely on my iphone for navigation. Google maps to check which roads to take as you can see tiny ones, not really havingit guidingme but looking at it as a very clever map. Obviously on tour it’s great to find restaurants or stuff like that, and also very practical to have your camera strapped to the handlebar instead of fishing it out of my pocket for a quick picture. The bad point about this is overheating and too cold. When it overheats from sun exposure battery life becomes a joke and I risk damaging it and being without a phone when away, which is far from ideal as my work is done through it. So now I am pondering getting a rugged phone strickly for use as navigation on the bike since they cope with heat a lot better, and not risking a precious phone that way. On the other hand, this would only really be needed three months out of the year or when going to Morocco.

I bet carrying clothing to ride in extreme cold inside the luggage most of the time doesn’t help.

Well, in fairness it probably has increased in value over your ownership? Do you feel it’s stronger now?

That white GS seems to be a partner on most of your travels, any issues compared to the Tenere?

4 days, 38000 miles!
