  1. Went out with Costa for a walk, tried a different part of the forrest to avoid the abundance of loud cyclists that go through the other are on sundays, it was a good choice.
  2. Hence the suggestion of overinflating at the end of the day and using your precision tool to adjust down to proper pressure wherever you rest.
  3. Cool thing, Hank Schrader from Breaking Bad was a (way younger) cop in Lethal Weapon 2!
  4. It's the hour change, Hitler and Franco and all that. They´ll sleep less today, between that and getting up to pee ...
  5. For that use a proper pressure gauge instead of a cheap electronic usb thing. Overinflate a little at a gas station before stopping and adjust later with cold tires. Or just use a good bycicle pump at home, 10 seconds and it's done.
  6. You'll notice that on all of those modern automatic battery things they state a maximum run time of a few minutes, 4 to 8. That's not enough to fully inflate a tire twice at the rate they run, just saying.

    They'll love one of my favorite sandwiches, a thick slice of grilled aubergine, tomato, parmesan, mozzarella, and basil
  8. I notice there's a lack of GS coolness on the bottom of the page. The banner actually looks better without the Tiger up there, though.
  9. Leave in your luggage and forget, then 1 year from now use for filling a tire after plugging it, and maybe 2 hours later after the plug didn't properly work. You want battery operated for that. I'm talking out of my ass, as I never had a flat tire.

    That just doesn't make sense! Try making a lasagna, except with thinly chopped shrooms and aubergine instead of minced meat in the sauce. I love proper aubergines Italian style, grilled and then left with chunks of garlic, salt and olive oil + balsamic vinegar and parsley. You then eat it cold or in sandwiches with cheese, it's proper! But they won't like it. Are they allergic to tasty?
  11. Not a fair comparison though as that's not really an emergency thing. That is a modern usb charged electronic thing, not something you can really put in your luggage and forget about until you have a flat and need to inflate a tire from empty.
  12. It's half the size of the original one.

    Lunch, tuna steak with steamed broccoli sautéed in garlic and olive oil. Steak was raw in the middle, perfect.

    Again, melanzane alla parmigiana. You grill aubergine, nothing except heat and a tiny bit of olive oil to moisten them. Then assemble the whole thing in layers similar to a moussaka or a lasagna except no pasta or meat. Tomato sauce (cooked, not from a jar!) / aubergine / tomato sauce + basil + mozzarella + parmesan, and repeat with variations of no mozzarella or no parmesan in a layer, mid layer: Top layer has to have parmesan, for the crust. This might be more delicious than lasagna, and goes better with toasted bits of bread since there's no pasta in it.
  15. You are in Spain's orchard/farm, but apart from small producers it's been converted to big business as I'm sure you've seen on the road riding for ages across the same farm. That's why I rather buy vegetables and fruit from Morocco than from Spain, but still there must be local producers and you'll still surely get the old ladies selling stuff on the town's market or sunday street market. Go explore, you'll have fun and make amazing food.
  16. It's dutch grown in greenhouses, it's shit. That stuff is also generic stuff grown in industrial farming, except it gets proper sunshine. You appreciate your cooking and vegetables, so take your bike and go on rides to the hills or smaller towns with central daily markets. You'll get proper small farming produce grown with love in proper soil, you'll really like it!
  17. Show us pictures of your little pump that can do both things. I want perspective, with a smile.
  18. what's wrong with those peppers? Normal peppers
  19. The idea is that it’s wrapped away for emergencies using little space, not something you use daily for adjusting tire pressures.
  20. That reminds me of one of my most favourite depressing songs, the poor rat… I’m the rat…
  21. You’re in for a treat in holy week. Spaniards go insane!
  22. In some cases yes, if they're lying like the battery guys. It means it's of no consequence, and sometimes it really is of no consequence.
  23. You would understand "de nada" better if you think of what they are really saying: there´s nothing to be thankful for, in english you'd literally translate to "it's nothing". Thank you / oh it's nothing special
  24. It's meant as it's ok. Meaning nothing bad happens. Like if you ask your bike storage people if the battery can go bad from being left at no charge for months, they'll say "no pasa nada" as in don't worry as nothing bad will happen.
