No, it’s shared by road trucks and tractors to tow across the fields. Just spoke to my neighbour who is not available for making a fish bbq tomorrow as he’s working 7 days per week 12 hours a day on these. He drove his truck home which is a cool Volvo. They carry 35 tons of tomato load, minimum! Which tells me they actually carry 40 tons of tomato. Apparently the trucks are homologated to 58 tons full vehicle weight and they fit in a Portuguese grey area in which nobody bothers much with capacity as long as it’s within vehicle homologation. I guess it’s something to do with farming lobbying. They can not go into Spain like that, though, and it seems to me it’s a little bit of don’t ask / don’t tell kind of thing.

Sitting outside having a very rarely enjoyed rosé, this is right now. Next warning will be apocalypse!

Might be here too

Went for a drive to air out and roll the old bmw while it was not too hot. Tomato picking season is now, hundred of trucks racing back and forth mostly on farm access roads. It's smart stuff, the trailer gets dragged through the fields by farming tractors while picking machines fill it up, then taken to tomato sauce factories using the same trailer but now pulled by trucks. It's a longer than usual trailer, and I guess tomato is a pretty dense product with all that water, how much do you this this is illegal by? My neighbor drives these during tomato season, it's good money but hard work in dusty fields in 40º heat. If he's home tomorrow I'll how much they carry

Maybe it's worth considering changing the car instead of the perfectly functioning Honda, then.

Is it an option to lend the car for the mechanic to use for a few days doing his daily thing and hope it happens with him?

And that is how they stay in business and don’t bother with complicated stuff via email and messages.

Can a bike be 110% perfect for one's needs?

It’s almost as if they’re tired of a certain brit pestering about crf300 …

Just don’t get a dog, do some research. Weight keeps you healthy

Same way as a Porsche’s brakes couldn’t stop an HGV… GHV? VGH? A heavy vehicle, a truck!

Can you not have a sexy curvy italian brunette as an Uccio?

Today I escaped and rode maybe 500km, mostly twisty mountain roads. Now finishing a long day having a proper meal and drinking red wine served on a clay jar! Two clay jars!

Plus every ride report is about how it’s perfect 100% for his riding!!??!! You’ll never be happy unless you get another GS, @XTreme, it’s the danger element of maybe getting stranded and dying that’s so addictive!

Maybe consider getting a heavy motorcycle. Something tall too, so that you drop it when off tarmac and then takes some effort to lift up. Now that’s a man’s workout.

They’re similar to motorcycles, except really slow and you get to places exhausted. Is there nothing you do daily on the car that you can do on an easy 20 minute stroll? Going to the bakery or something like that. I think gently walking is a lot easier on the knees than bicycles, plus you’ll hate getting on a bicycle until it gets cooler.

Starting to ride a bicycle at 70 is going to properly hurt!

Rewatching Game of Thrones, it got better the second time!

Nope, I prefer the one with the oak tree

Interested to know how it is compared to the Suzuki

Thanks, I knew that would be a more likely to win choice

Took some with lovely views earlier in the month but this next one is the one closer to my heart and my choice for BOTM. Just love the colours, the oak, and the grass along with the dusty bike
