XTreme Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Dragged to Carrefour and the shopping mall in Murcia! So I made the best of it by visiting a couple of bike shops on the same block! Here's Carrefour........notice the bike specific parking areas! They even had some weird Scooter things.... The wife wanted clothes.....but didn't like anything there! But I got a couple of T shirts and 3 pairs of long, thin white socks.......to stop my ankles getting burnt on the bike in the Summer. But no tracksuit bottoms there! WTF? By now, the wife was really pissed off she couldn't get anything.......so I thought I'd cheer her up by taking her into Belmoto BMW. One of the showrooms was full of Chinese type shit I'd never heard of! Then into the BMW showroom! I couldn't believe the size of the big Beemers......they're enormous. The wife likes (or rather tolerates) BMW's cos her favourite bike was Big Bird......the R1150GS. She was very impressed with the 1250GS......then she looked at me and said "You're too old for something like this". After that it was into EuroBikes accessories......very disappointed with their range. They had a nice Summer jacket there for €69 but they had nothing bigger than Large......and I couldn't get my shoulders in that. However they did have Silkolene Chain & Brake Cleaner......so I grabbed a can! Across the road is AutoFerro Honda......but didn't bother to go in. It was just too bloody hot by then. Left at 9am, back at 2.30pm, and 300kms done! The wife ended up with nothing (and it was her shopping trip)......but I got 2 T shirts, 3 socks, and some chain cleaner. So not a complete wipeout. You don't get shit like this on Buttrider! Tell 'em @Tym! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No spaces for sad twats in vans though Dave! What can we learn from this? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have actually done that in the past when I've had to do longer distances. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm OK on boots.....it was a Summer jacket that I wanted, and possibly jeans. But the jeans were all narrow legged things and ridiculously long. Same in Carrefour as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
