XTreme

Excellent!

Just bike Sofia!

Damn! And you've got to sort out BOTM thread...... @Tym has posted multiple bikes. You've got to decide if that's allowed!

New smartphone next week so the pics should be a lot sharper @Grasshopper's Ride

No pics or vids? You doing a @Buckster here Pedro? What you say @Tym

Spain is where I should have been born!

I've deleted my entry......now I have a new one!

I hear it now......but very much in the distance.

I've spent most of this year Dark Motorcycling.......abandoned villages, abandoned railway stations, abandoned mines, abandoned factories, and ruins littered across bleak dystopian landscapes! Now that suits me just fine! I like the creepy atmosphere of things that are frozen in time! But I know it's not everybody's thing! Some people like bright, attractive pics and vids set in desirable locations. So I've thrown in a report that's more in empathy with peoples' perception of Spain. Personally, I find it little more than a screensaver, and totally lacking in any sort of mental stimulus or interest. Yeh.....the pics and vid look nice. But that's where it ends........there's nothing beneath the surface. Normal ride reports will resume soon though......it's just that I've now got to go further afield to access these. And with temps around 40C as they've been, I just have to wait for the wall of heat to lift! And yes, that haunted sanitorium in Murcia is on the list! So here we go.......along the southern coastal path of Lake Negratin!

Why don't you add a soundtrack.....great selection here: https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/

The thing is here, we don't take ourselves seriously. Nobody feels they've got anything to prove. We've ridden all our lives........so it's nothing new to us. In fact the only thing people manage to prove is they're twats basically. It says something about the place that probably the most ambitious and hardcore rider here only has one leg!

Superb @Sofia! ?

That's why I rarely post on Buttrider even though I've been a member since 2004. There's some great ride reports on there, and some really good guys.......but unfortunately it's become overrun with attention-seeking fuckheads over the years.

Brand new 20 grand bike, dump it in a fucking swamp, then post the pic on ButtRider to demonstrate how hardcore you are!

I'm back.....holy fuck that was hot! No dark motorcycling today.......but I should have some good pics which are more in empathy with what people expect to see in Spain.

Careful what you wish for..... @BusBoy's dustbins are on the loose!

We're allowed to see those pages! Really weird that others are blocked........this never happened prior to the last couple of years.

Brilliant! And that was a gold mining area @Earache? Did they find any?

I can't imagine you'd get that many time wasters for a scooter though.

Yeh.....tourists here as well! And probably Covid by now as well.

I've had another really busy week.....just hoping I can get some peace over the weekend!

There's no sign of the heat relenting here...... ......so I think I'll be limited to a short little run early morning! What about you guys?

I wore Shoei for about 25 years......but AFAIC they've priced themselves out of the reckoning now. Four years ago I got a HJC (which are apparently based on the Shoei head shape) and that does the job at less than half the price.
