Same here.

Theres a profile? I’ve not signed up properly then

Thats nice to hear. I agree completely. Most people seem to manage about 3 days before they start getting narky about irrelevant stuff. I generally state right at the outset that sometimes its good to break away from the group to ride on your tod for a bit as it stops things getting stale. But really its to stop tensions between folk who are getting on each other’s pip!

@Grasshopper's Ride spent sometime looking at your website. I have to say its very nicely done, congrats. You have a lyrical way of writing that borders on whimsy but contains emotions that keep it grounded, great work, I like it. Nice short length vids, easy voice to listen to and unsurprisingly from you great pics. If I could be arsed to take pics or document stuff (yes I know Ill regret it later) I’d love to be able to produce such smooth content. Thats going to make an excellent scrap book for you later on. I signed up so you’re now obliged to keep adding the good stuff

Really couldn’t decide whether to put a laugh or cry emoji on that. Theres another two minutes finely wasted.

What is this ‘shopping’ people go to do? Tortuous way to spend your time. Unless its bike shopping then thats completely different.. or getting supplies or gear for a trip.. or.. nope they’re the only types of shopping that are acceptable.

Nice to see some places aren’t melting at a rate of knots. How’s the tavel trailer buying going?

Not sure the weathers going to be good for some https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/may/20/spain-braces-for-heat-wave-of-extraordinary-intensity Boring weekend for me mostly catching up on previously shirked responsibilities. Might try and get out for a ride and squeeze in a bit of experimental kitchen cos in a moment of mad boredom a couple of weeks ago I might have spent £50 on a Leg of Mutton, 100% grass fed hung for three weeks bit of Mutton but still probably not my finest spend

Is this the trip that was supposed to happen before some scrotes nicked Andy’s bike?

Nice blog @Grasshopper's Ride Love the stick Yeti Bigfoot thingy!

Nice

WOW! Thats beautiful!

At the beginning I was shouting “Come on man give it a bit more welly” then when he got into the sand dunes oh good lord I felt sorry for him, I would not have enjoyed that! His tone when he speaks to Charlie sounds like he must be either his son or employee?

Sounds marvellous.

You dunno wot youre talking about beemer boy!

Its a hard life

Nice one. Your new Singaporean friends seemed good humoured about their crappy bikes. Are they going to join you in Thailand?

hmm c90?

No moto then?

I dunno MooN sometimes you post stuff that makes my heart sing. Hmm, more water with it me thinks

On a bike?

Briiliant

How did you end up in Rohdes? Its not the usual biking choice?

Very nice. NippyNormans? Know what you mean about group riding. I’ve just started to organise a ride to the french Alps and then down to Andalucia and the thing thats most niggling away in the back of my mind more than any other issue is the idea of having to ride all that way in a group at a slow pace.. torture. But theyre grown ups, I’ll give them the sat nav route and the stopping points and then after a couple of days the group should naturally split into different subgroups… I hope

Ooh a second bike. Quick start a really really long thread with no info in it
