The drama!

I don't know what you're on about, you are very loud and like to embarrass people but you're confusing that with being social. How many people really spend time with you?

There’s a clause on the warranty against taking photos.

I don’t really like hanging out with most people, though, or engaging in things for the sake of it. One thing I really like doing is not doing things I don’t feel like Things will fix themselves.

95% April fools, the other 5% is because he’s fitted a trailer ball to his bike, so anything can happen.

No, no hobbies or making stuff.

It's raining quite heavily, which is good because I wasn't planning on going out on the bike anyway and the Portuguese forrests need it as much as possible before the fire season starts. I will spend the weekend doing basically nothing, which is what I feel like I've been doing with my time lately. Even though i've been more or less busy with work it just feels like a waste. On monday morning I've got an appointment at a bank at 9:30 right near Porto, and after that am taking off for a couple of days to then end up at Sofia's for another couple of days, and to then spend a few days the week after at my place. Maybe also go for another ride then too. Don't know where I'm pointing the bike on Monday, maybe up the Douro as that's where I'll be, it's supposed to be pretty up there now. Hope that takes me out of my bad mood.

Stating that a shooting or mass murder is made up should just be deleted to avoid anyone having to read it even if through other people's replies.

Delete it and hope it’s not been spoiled!

My first thought was to post “there is no WAY IN HELL”, but someone bit the hook and I thought he’s got one. To top it up she’s refuged inside avoiding the christians so this could have gone for days.

That was obvious. But you Couldn’t just watch the show, Slowly was about to get him a house and set him up with her competent landlord, and tell him all about dangerous gravel traps. Thanks for ruining my fun!

Spanish "pigs" are well travelled animals, they are born in Spain, then if they want the "black pig" seal on the pork they have to graze on acorns for a certain amount of time, so they sometimes get driven to Portugal where they rent a farm for the grazing, then drive back to Spain to die and then sometimes back to Portugal in ham form or other dried meats, or in that case fly to the UK for the sausage factory, to then fly back to Spain. What's wrong with us? If it's not black pig, then they might as well be factory bred.

So on your time away from England you shop at a brit shop, and end up buying british sausages made with spanish pork, in Spain?

He went through so much pain and suffering over the last couple of years, and showed such persistence to overcome that and still ride like a lunatic. That kind of season surely must change a person, at minimum, in his mind he's no longer immortal. Still a fabulous racer, though.

I carry a nice little thing with all the things one (probably not me) would need to tighten stuff or work on my bike. But truth be told, if it conks out I'm fucked and stranded.

I carry two with me on my jacket, a tiny tiny leatherman for it´s mini pliers to fish out earplus when they get too pushed in. And a standard victorinox because you always need a blade and a corkscrew.

And a penknife with corkscrew...

Zipties, tape, a leatherman kind of thing with pliers, and a couple of whatever your bike uses spanners or torx or whatever. France is not really a desert and you'll be in a group. You own many bikes in very different locations, so two toolkits isn't that crazy if it's a source of concern.

Look similar, maybe, with that paddle style of pattern? It should be taken on nice fast dirtroads!

Those karoos are suposedly really good both on road and off.

Cleared my email inbox. 28000 emails since early 2018 I was going to keep any important stuff and bin the rest but screw going through that lot, all straight to a filed away from sight folder, that’ll do for another 4 years

I like the looks of it. It's ugly in a nice way, like my bike. Can't see it being better than a Transalp out there on the real world, though. Good thing it's got a 270º too! journalist twats

I won't say it out loud in the street, but I was actually rooting for Marquez. Not really because I like him but there is nothing cooler in any sport than seeing a champion come back from bad times and showing people why he was a champion in the first place.
