Mine's got the spoked wheels, smart ass!

He's waiting for the right helmet

Shit, @Sir Fallsalot, 11 hours on muddy trails? Did you loose a bet or join the foreign legion? I rode the GS around very local streets to dry it out after washing, took 20 minutes

My plan to wash the bike didn't go according to plan. I had a little more work in the afternoon and forgot I had ran out of bike washing liquid, so went to buy it, but of course riding the bike got hot and it feels not ok to wash a hot engine, will probably be left for tomorrow. Spent a big part of the day on the phone but feel like I've done nothing.

You gain nothing on going full at it on the weekend. I have learned to continue asking clients for questions, over and over if needed, simplifying requests until there is no chance of a misunderstanding.

That's really simple, then!

You know, some people procrastinate when asking for stuff like that and leave it to when they feel is the last time, and usually that happens to be the end of the week. Just leave it to monday, two days isn't much and enjoy a day off.

relaxing while working until now, after lunch I might wash the bike and go for a short ride to dry it properly, as the weather is very nice. Later having dinner with my neighbors, and tomorrow going for a short ride around, maybe.

October 2016 or 2017, coming back from Morocco: night time, tired, hungry and cold arriving in Lisbon in the rain, my more than half worn Heidenau K60 on a loaded bike letting me know at every motorway offramp and expansion joint why they are known to be shit in the rain. I swear I thought we were going down every time I had to put the slightest amount of lean into a corner.

Strange name for a girl, Eye Almost ran over a kid once, he just suddenly ran to cross the street and away from his mother, it was a quiet country street with little traffic and I was going downhill so not making a lot of noise. I stopped from about 70 or 80kmh a meter or so before I hit him. Probably the scariest moment for me.

On the politically correct side, you end up with a nicer acronym if one of those is POTY

From a distance

I meant it as a joke, insulation for homes / insulation from Europe...

He really has to, considering it’s aparently served on a sizzling dish

Britain is more and more insulated from Europe, people are never happy with what they have…

Which is ironic because it’s about the same size, too

I meant that you get so hyper alert and hysterical that your imagination gives you a nudge into interpreting the situation your own way. There's a saying here that translates to something like "I don't believe in witches, but they are out there"

I don't get any of that crap. If you want to walk around an old abandoned hospital, you're bound to catch a fright. If not looking to feel hyped up and hysterical and overthinking the situation, which is what happened, why go? Plenty of nice normal buildings with no ghosts and the guy who is afraid of them goes exploring an abandoned hospital?

I don't know what that was, the first two eyes were probably a cat. If you're afraid of ghosts why go look for them? Also, it's way smarter to wear long pants when walking through that kind of thorny bushes, just saying. Fucking hipsters

A wanking arab? What kind of places do you visit??

Has that happened to you?

I walked into a cafe today, into the bathroom and had a piss. I didn't wear a mask while doing this, felt great, the times we live in ...

Beyond fixing … his health is ok though

I just had a nice dinner with my parents, and will drive to pick my brother up from the airport in an hour or so. Weather here in northern Portugal is like summertime, but don't even feel like getting on the bike as weekend traffic annoys me so much. We'll see what the weekend brings, I expect dog walks and little else.
