Yes, surely starting a fan club along with Bud Ekins and Paul Newman

So today my tree was brought home. Maria picked a handful of Argan nuts off the floor in Morocco, and about 3 years ago I one of them started growing with a little help from myself: Yesterday, aproximately 3 years since it started growing, I wanted to give it a chance to grow and this home is where it belongs. So, using a friend's van I drove it 250km home And it was put on the ground with the help of a stake to help it cope with the high wind here for the first few weeks, and also to help straighten her a little bit. I finished watering when it was already dark and freezing. Also brought 60 new plants to help turn this garden around, so tomorrow is going to be busy gardening.

My washing machine plays a tune, it's like christmas arrives every time the laundry is done

That’s so true, easy and no steepness! Great stuff. There’s nothing wrong with having your usual roads or lanes that you do hundreds of times.

what now?

Do you put up a tent for doing maintenance?

For the sake of accuracy... it's chinese american

That's just how they do that in South Africa

I like this, but it's way over simplified and not accounting for pressure.

It mustn´t be cool to see smoke starting to appear only to anticipate whatever dark magic had your bike at it's mercy. Since I imagine you ride it less than frequently, why not just have a normal battery with a tender connected to it inside the garage?

Here in Portugal you get a 1D, which is: "hey fucko, don't do that shit ever again"

I use a pair of Dainese boots stiled after old army boots from the 70s and 80s, bought them 6 years ago. The soles were shit and wore through so I had them replaced with Vibram soles 4 years ago for 15 Euros at my local shoe guy, and since then they've been better than new, even though they are more like normal boots than motorcycle stiff boots. I take them there occasionally after a proper long trip and they come back out looking like new for next to nothing. I am going to buy waterproof boots for winter, because I hate to ruin them with rain, but my current ones just fit me. Here I am posing

I deleted my facebook account years ago when it revealed how racist and angry people really are when Europe got to deal with the refugee situation. I am happy to not go back there. This has provided somewhere for me to post a few reports very dear to me, and to properly go through those pictures for the first time ever, but also as a great replacement for a less intrusive facebook of sorts, served in a format and pace which are more agreeable to my internet ignorant way of being.

Tryactin like you're not a fucking moron when writing web pieces, look at journalism and tryactin like that.

Good stuff, bots. I wonder what kind of coffee maker they used for that trip, or if the burger place where they stopped for food also offered them a milkshake in exchange for a review.

You’re not really saying I’m wrong, though

All @XTreme’s talk about being a decrepit guy out on his last ride is bollocks, @Sir Fallsalot. I’ve met him, he actually goes out searching for people to leave behind, he’ll want grippy tires. When my current Scorpion Trail 2 wear out I’ll be happy to go for TKC70 again, those were the best I had. Except if going to Morocco, in that case I’ll fit something tougher like K60, which are crap and noisy on tarmac but competent offroad and tough as hell.

Cool stuff, Pete, look forward for a visit. Are those Bridgestones? What are they like on those mixed surfaces?

I’m sorry, delicate flower, didn’t mean to make you feel unappreciated! I liked your bench too!

Agreed, it’s great to see someone bringing back benches on ride reports!

That’s just really pretty, and your bike suits the landscape.

Lovely bike, Pete, it suits the land.

That can actually can’t
