Pedro

My take on the philly cheese steak, there's a layer of caramelized onions on the bottom, then sliced steak and cheese on top, with a healthy dose of mustard, served in a rustic bread. It was great.

Stand by, this thread is for pictures of food made by me, or that I really liked eating.

That looks ace, Italians make a lot of breads like that.

They were ace, @Sofia made the bread. 

I would have gone with the pizza too, out of the two. That's a pretty chunky salad.

I’m surprised Pedro hasn’t posted a picture of a medley of boiled lizard eyes with an octopus brain purée and sautéed hamster embryos on the side.

That's because this thread is called American food pics for Pedro, not Pedro eating lizards. I thought you'd be more surprised every time some posts a picture, not the other way around.

However, to go along with the theme and considering they didn't turnout italian at all, I was in charge of the topping of these, a few days ago:

They've got artichoke on them, and capers, just mess with you guys. Tasted great!

Only if you ride it on the road, it's still covered for fire and theft when parked up but you cannot ride it on the road until you have a new MOT and tax but you are covered to ride it to the MOT station after booking an appointment

In Portugal, self cover is forbiddingly expensive when available, and except if it's a new bike it's simply not available. You end up taking your chances. 

I guess the insurance companies think there would be a lot of insurance fraud if they were to allow bike self damage coverage, I think they are right in their assumptions 

Kickstarting a Harley must be great American stuff, @Tym, I´d love to try.

Don't think I'd enjoy riding one of those older twins after having gotten used to modern BMWs though, but I'd surely give them a go for sure.

Here is a great example of this.... 

 

They interviewed @Tym at 01:00, he told Canada to fuck up, I would as well, holidays are supposed to be fun!

Have you ever tried a Ketchup CHIP?  Don't knock it until.....

According to a smart fella, there was a time when I could only do "cool".....  

 

Does this mean I have lost some cool points...... 

Honey! We've been trying crisps since before you guys even knew you guys were the new world! We've had crips with whichever flavor you can come up with, ketchup ain't nothing! Keep it original, yo!

@Grasshopper's Ride Silent! these brits here get real serious about their chips!

PPS: only olive oil, really!

Canada rocks the Ketchup Chips!   

Nobody needs that, Michelle.

I am addicted to crips, my favourites are these, do you get these at yours?

ketchup ain’t cool!

Hasn't been above 0C in weeks - although today is supposed to be really warm. But we have 75 mph winds today as well - I just can't win

I may have to toss the bike in the truck and head to Mexico soon to ride.

That looks bloody great for a Portuguese, but I can see how it can get old after a few days 

Can you drive well enough in that? No interest in other motorized things for the snow?

Great stuff, glad you made it back to warm up before nightfall

For 2021, the CVO Road Glide is equipped with a new 21-inch cast aluminum wheel with laced spokes and a matching 18-inch rear wheel.

 

Good effort on putting on such a long distance in cold weather. I am currently missing it a lot and have only been stuck at home for a week.

What kind of GPS do you use?

You know, a PROPERLY MAINTAINED '68 DT-1 with the 323 cc GYT Kit

is perfectly capable of doing what I have just asked for.

However, it would never dream of passing emission standards. If you would get it to, then it wouldn't move out of it's own way.

Would you say it's road handling and braking would do well in modern expectations?

oTHERWISE, NERTZ TO  YOUSE.

Anything else? 200.000 mile motocross engine too? 

I´ve had a nice little couple of rides, could have ridden properly but really didn't feel like bothering with it 

It's been shit. Started with lack of energy and a depressive mood, then went back into work and so far altogether have invoiced what used to be my daily average last January, don't have one work call that isn't a complaint, covid has locked me in and it's only getting worse so no idea when I'll be able to go out, and February is coming with a painful anniversary coming, which I'll probably be forced to spend with family at home instead of on my own on the bike. Can't say I'm in a cheerful mood to be honest.

Have read a good book though, "India, the Shimmering Dream", you should too:

As I understand it we've now got the UK variant circulating here Ray.......and apparently it's much easier to catch than the original one.

We've now got a Brazilian variant here as well, to help things.
