I posted a ride report this week you ginger twat!

Me on my Himalayan and a mate aboard an old Yamaha XT600E went exploring today around and north of Lorca in the Murcia region. The temperature was a manageable 32 Celsius and the trails were very easy going, including part of the route of the Via Augusta, which was a Roman road that went from Malaga along the south of Spain, up the eastern coast and all way around the Mediterranean to Rome. We didn’t go quite that far but it still made us feel like centurions. I managed to have a little lay down as I turned the bike around and slipped on some deep gravel. A graceful dismount was met with rapturous applause. Anyway, enough talking, here are some photos of questionable quality………

I've done nothing but work on the house in some form or another for the last 3 weeks. Getting bored of it now, might have to go back to work. Na, fuck that.

He,s better on that, than you are on a chair!

i know who they are ... twats

Dirty cunt.

2 ain't that many.

I´ll do a walk report

I've not been out today, because I had to wait in for a delivery.......which it turns out was supposedly delivered yesterday! So, that's a non-delivery claim going in! Anyway, I should be out on the bike tomorrow morning, hopefully.

I had to cancel my Eastern USA trip scheduled for this week, but I'm headed back to Wyoming and Montana one week from today. It'll probably be over 40 degrees, but I'm not a pussy about heat like some people are.

I also have the same problem with walking and cycling. The road I live on is flat, I walk along it no problem. Yet on my push bike it is a vicious incline which I'm either panting to ride up or speeding down hoping my brakes will stop me at the far end.

Yeh pleasure flights.....take off from a shit hole, fly over said shit hole for 10 mins, and land at a shit hole..............that's where they go the idea of flying to Benidorm..

no i dont see above post.

The women are flocking here in droves thanks to me.

He's hiding in case he runs into me when he's on his bike!

Ask Tony.

Nothing now........belt replaced.......but a shit load of bodywork to refit .

yes im going to have to shape myself and get the old serow over for it's mot i think the battery is knackered even though it's been on an optimate so will have to sort it

It's not fit to ride.

A cobbler/cobblers is a shoe mender/shoe mender's shop. Cobblers is also one of the million slang word for testicles, no idea why we have so many.

That’s because you are a bit foreign.

Cos I don't see much of it going on! You lot lost your bottle or what? And before any of you say anything........anybody who goes out riding in 40+C temps needs psychiatric treatment. @DangerRuss58 did it a couple of weeks ago and was lucky not to end up in hospital! Obviously @boboneleg can't after his surgery........but you Casuals ain't got heatwaves or missing limbs......so WTF's the matter with you?

You can’t beat a bit of stereotyping.

Yep...you were moving faster than a Vespa

I don't live in that area.

I once flew between Jersey and Guernsey on one of those TriLander planes one evening in the middle of winter. Those things were like flying in a 1960's cortina! The pilot got in and turned round and asked if everyone was OK. The windows steamed up within minutes of take-off and, because of a cross wind, we flew the distance sideways. We were only a couple of hundred feet above the waves too! An experience that I never wanted to repeat!

They are a great bit of kit!

True....they stopped the pleasure flights there and at Skeggy years ago. I went up in one once......what's a bloody Heath Robinson contraption that was!!

Not in the mood, I have to much time at the doctors and now the hospital to be bothered with the bike at the moment.

There is one of those planes in Pollenca (Majorca) .....seemed to miss the hotel roof by just a few feet when coming into the bay to refill..

Will all members and ex-members of the "other forum" please note that Six wants to apologise to nobody for being an annoying cunt.

You're on the ignore lists of two "other forum" members now. None of the long term guys will do that of course! I'm not sure any of them have ever put anybody on ignore......doubt they even know where the button is. What you say @Tym @Buckster?

Gay BLOCKED

Only 15 years worth to catch up on then!

Yeh.....get on with it Lionel.......or these Casuals will think you're Casual!

Those people running that place have to be complete inbreds...wait, utah? Umm never mind.

Filming is even worse, you can't understand why everyone is having such a hard time getting through that bit of flat dirt road

When I was a small child on holiday these sort of post cards cracked me up. Now I'm a mature adult, I snurk on the inside only of course.

You don't need a jack. Adrenaline and embarrassment usually suffices.

.......the reptile "got a little extra spunky."

I am embarrassed to say I don't understand the first one...

Yes, now I'm glad you brought that up. Why is it that no slope looks as bad as it is in real life in a photograph or a video. If I took a picture of the top of Everest it would look like a billiard table.

Mainly to keep myself entertained, I continued to edit a few videos of my ride from North Portugal to the Algarve. The end results are not what I would have liked, I ended most days with no battery left on the camera, mostly from filming boring shit or leaving the camera on while having lunch , and somehow lost some footage. To top it, I lost a piece of my mounting system and ended the trip with a crap camera location. It was quite frustrating to edit, but I "helped" by narrating. Center, starting in Serra da Estrela, including a short walk in Piodão, and more rain before the Alentejo: Alentejo, Alter do Chão through to Estremoz's Castle, and sleep in Monsaraz Plans weren't followed this day, there's a swimming pool, though: The Algarve, the end of the trip deserved more than just a short clip of some twisties, I failed with the camera:

Ooooo let me see

That was 2 hrs into an 8 hr ride on 8 miles of dirt road. We should have walked

amateurs...
