XTreme

Cos I just got a Whatsapp message from Rafa.......the dealer in Granada! "Buenas tardes Pete, había un hueco hoy en ITV y ya se la hemos pasado. Mañana se la llevan a taller para revisión. La tendré lista el lunes día 5" He's saying that they had a free space in the ITV (MOT) Centre today so the Beemer got it's 2 year ITV certificate. It was originally scheduled for Monday! Tomorrow it's going into the workshop for a full service, and it'll be ready to be collected Monday morning! That worked out well with me getting my 2019 tax rebate today, because that'll cover the difference between the two. I think my pulse has quickened a bit!

I can't imagine how hard it must be for you Pedro.......it takes a lot of strength to do it. In your place I honestly don't think I could. I've felt very sad going through the reports.......especially with any pics or vids that has Maria in them. That's why I drew attention to these threads........because they go way beyond any ride or tour report that I've ever known. I want people to see them - not to generate traffic or anything like that - but it's taken a superhuman effort for you to do this, and I don't want it ignored because people are just skimming through the site.

If you haven't checked out @Pedro's 3 Morocco Ride Reports then you're really missing something. They are being posted chronologically and they're telling a story......not just of riding motorcycles, but of life itself. It's taken Pedro a lot of time to do these.......and given the circumstances it can't be easy for him. So I would really encourage you guys to take a look at these........and I'm not joking when I say that these are the best I've ever seen. I'm not talking about photo or video quality.....it goes much deeper than that. So take the time to check these out in their chronological order!

Wow! Even romance as well! You've set the standard for ride reports now @Pedro

Hi Steve.......good to see you! ?

Still doing the male modelling poses then Pedro?

Yes.......we can do that! May make it clearer!

Love the monkey shots Pedro!

Your PAc tried to make you get on a bicycle wearing a dress?

.......about how to get on a bike if you're a bit short or have bad hips? I believe this pic demonstrates the correct technique better than I ever could. And for some reason this method seems to stick in your mind.

The mechanical drama gives it a bit of mystery though!

This is brilliant again Pedro! The cops there ride F650GS's then?

Had to I'm afraid Dave......otherwise it'll descend into a mirror of Facebutt with 2 opposing sides!

It looks like 6-6 to me!

And those memories will always stay with you Pedro. Glad that you shared all of it with us.

That's actually true!

And 5 oil changes!

That's 450 miles with you on it Yen! That's not normal miles by any stretch of the imagination!

Still looking clean Yen?

My god.......that is a nightmare Pedro! How didn't it put you off Beemers?

What have they said now?

What happened?

You're lucky that was under warranty!

Incredible Pedro........this has to be the most outstanding ride report that we've had so far. I'm on edge waiting here for the next instalment of the leaking Beemer! What you say @Tym?
