  1. After a couple of wet days the sun got his hat on today. It was still slightly fresh and a bit windy first thing, but I couldn't resist getting out on the bike. I put Villerouge Termenes into the sat-nav and headed in that direction. The route took me on Narbonne's northern bypass and I turned off and headed up and across, past the Abbaye Fontfroide and towards Tournissan. I turned off that road and headed towards Villerouge-Termenès, which is a nice twisty road in the Corbieres. I got to Villerouge and stopped for a minute, but I was enjoying the ride, so I switched off the Sat-nav and decided that I'd just see where I ended up. I was in a village called Laroq-de-Fa and saw a road sign for the Château Quéribus, so I swung off onto that road. It wound through the hills and into Massac, where I swung a tricky right turn towards Soulatgé. There I picked up the road along the valley, towards Duilhac-sous-Peyrepertuse, which took me under the Château Peyrepertuse that sits on a rocky ridge. I passed through Duilhac-sous-Peyrepertuse and past the Château de Quéribus. I then went through Padern and along its gorge, towards Tuchan, where I got caught out by the lack of road signs, but eventually found the right road. This road took me past the Château d'Aguilar and towards Villeneuve-les-Corbières. From there I went through Durban-Corbières and turned left onto the road to Thézan-des-Corbières. There I got back onto the road past Abbaye Fontfroide and back to Narbonne and home. I've no idea how far this loop was, but I was out for about 4hrs, so I'm guessing at around 200kms or thereabouts. The roads were pretty twisty and narrow, so it wasn't a fast ride!

  4. Wait, you’ve never heard of the Yamaha Bronco 225? Neither had we! It was a short-run machine only produced for the 1997-1998 model year, targeted mainly to the Japanese Domestic Market. Beneath the retro scrambler exterior were the bones of the Yamaha Serow 225 — an air-cooled dual-sport with a reputation for toughness. For some of us, there are motorcycles that become much more than transportation, adventure, or even personal expression — they become companions, even friends. Such is this case for of DOTi Motorcycle‘s Nguyen Dinh Trung and his 1997 Yamaha Bronco 225. https://cafebiker.pro/yamaha-bronco-225-by-doti-motorcycle/ https://cafebiker.pro/yamaha-bronco-225-by-doti-motorcycle/

  5. Go alone, one bike. It's the way to properly see it and experience a little bit of a different place.

  7. Cheers, Pete. Yes, I'm trying to get out and explore a bit more. Being able to get out on the bike more was one of the attractions of moving down here, so it would be a shame not to make the most of it!

  22. Not spoiled it much because it isn't in the way of said view, unlike XTreme's fucking top box if that had been within a 10 mile radius it would have been in shot and spoilt the view

  27. That's only 50 miles away from where I live...not alot of people get to enjoy the beauty of Wallowa lake in the winter. It's always so quiet & serene. I'm also quite blessed to have a wife who enjoys all those activities.
