Pedro

Pete Rock, look it up.

Sofia’s very portuguese tomato and pea rice, pork with mustard sauce, and balsamic caramelised shalots. A perfectly comforting and tasty dinner.

Shiny paint and “Property of Jesus” sticker make the bike

There are tourists from lots of places. But Lisbon being right next door you don’t need Brits to pull this shit.

Car set on fire last night, front lights are still blinking. Someone burned a sofa that was put on the street and the car was next to it. I also cleaned a big wall in front of Sofia’s practice with grafity on. Luckily painted on tiles so easily cleaned. I don’t get this shit.

Some rapper stole my name though

WTF! That’s not cool, there’s a poor old XTreme that doesn’t register here because someone uses his name So turns out everyone has been using fake names, I feel like I don’t know anyone anymore. I’m Pedro in real life, but you can call me Batman on here if you want.

I highly prefer Catherine to him. Did he change his name because he wanted to be a real Jones?

Not anymore, it’s been replaced… with a Taiwanese bike.

What happened with Horace?

No they won’t, they’re camouflaged

Well, there only one significant Tom Jones. Both of you being Jones …

Will order a rocky creek one later today. Should be smaller than all the others which is a bonus. Then find a nice tight bag for it, put it in my right side case and hopefully never look at it again.

You didn’t know Tom Jones back then in Wales?

They make the trials bikes in Spain though. I was going to comment but didn’t want to sound pedantic

Country road and touring, 400 miles

Pete’s XT350, might have crossed that road a couple times more than needed.

In Portugal they go along with a friendly vibe to the public, maybe they’re good people in their own circles but their business is mostly criminal, involved in extortion, racketeering and drugs. A couple of years ago there was a joined operation by Portugal’s PJ and Europol to move in on the Portuguese Hells Angels, they were accused of extreme violence to enforce their extortion activity. Within hours a few were scattered around Europe and picked up all around, mostly Germany (oldest non US chapter). Edit: trial was of 20 or 40 guys, none of them said a single word, and a couple of judges resigned from the case. Nice guys

Why not an X, though? A lot more in common with the Himalayan

Hanging out with Ericeira’s top vet!

Your loss

A very cold 1°C Ericeira, pretty blue skies though
