It involved canned sardines:

Following buying special flour, pizzas were made: The result wasn’t what we hoped for but can’t go wrong with pizza

Because of mobility, won’t this be quite tall to throw your leg over?

Come on @boboneleg, what do you know that I don’t? Camshafts? Alternator?

It starts ...

Be careful with wires, all I know is that if you break them and the magic smoke comes out they then become useless!

Your engine looks like it’s seen quite some mud in it’s life

Why?

Mine was made sometime end of 2015, it arrived either January or February 2016

Went to buy oldschool flour at a classic windmill today, weather was shit, bike’s all muddy now

Looks nice and green, nice views!

Yes, we have both an electrical big station that takes water from the river and feeds the local farms, and also field flooding from those canals. This area is Portugal’s main tomato source, they’re huge! I’ll make a farm ride report next time.

Don't know what that is

Plenty of stops for pictures, that's an old school ride report!

I was looking forward to the part about the GS's weird front suspension and it's very short wheelbase, but it didn't happen. Where's Lone Amigo?

To be fair, there would be plenty of subhumans turning up if it was a FCPorto vs SLBenfica match, except they'd all be traveling within country ...

Came accross a little pond/puddle of dark water today, I turned back Also, those english roads with the edges next to them and no space for people walking or visibility really look claustrophobic to me.

Bear with the language, they're well funny! They're made from an old german cartoon similar to the Joe Bar Team ones Who hasn't done it? Oh, here's in English:

After the Champions final, Porto will have it too

No, Summer's now, by tomorrow it ends!

That's the Tejo River, 40kms downstream from here it flows next to Lisbon Another pictures where you can better see it:

I’m not even wearing my summer jacket yet, it wasn’t warm at all today, must have been 22 or 23 max for a couple of hours. Chilly on the hills, even, wouldn’t have minded a sweater for when up there ...

Tomorrow I shall be mostly planting plants on my garden. Starting at 8:30 with a ride on a pickup to buy 100 something plants, and try to make it before getting too late. Trying to make my house not look abandoned isn't easy ...

Temperature being perfect for a ride around, I was feeling like cheering up so rode up my favourite hill nearby on my regular roads: A short stop on a freshly surfaced road, it's got brand new tarmac but keeps the same bumps as before and no lines, just so you still know it's Portugal Then, coming back home I felt like finding an alternative route via some dirt roads and stopped for a picture when opening up my jacket vents, getting too warm for goretex and slow speeds now. The plan was to climb a small hill that is not accessible by road, but that climb was too steep and loose for me to feel like attempting it would have been fun. Last few days were heavy with rain, so I started ending up in mud holes that looked like clay traps, when they got too big and covered in water I decided to turn back and bail. Will have to try that climb on the XR, I think it'll easily do it. Short stop for a afternoon snack before coming home

I heard about that today. Makes total sense to not have a match between two UK teams taking place in the UK but instead making all those twats flying over to little old Porto Haven't you guys got a field somewhere over there in which to hold that match?
