I don’t get that, clearly security right now means nothing if he’s got to be supported by her family. Earning a proper living should be the priority but I get that he has some issues and believe me when I say I understand working with family is sometimes very taxing on one’s emotional well-being. Not speaking the language though, might make it hard to find something really local.

No interest in employing him for you?

there's something smart about being able to go for a weekend out and carry your stuff where the fuel tank is supposed to be, no external luggage of any kind. Or pop by the grocery on the way home and not carry a plastic bag hanging from your arm. I like that, and the low fuel consumption.

Then you'll get a surprise site to make for an estate agent, feed the donkeys, and go to Baza, but at least it'll be sunny.

I voted for Sofia, I love that part of Portugal and it’s a photogenic bike too, plus it was a nice ride that day. Could have voted for 3 or 4 as there are some nice ones this month, I quite like the CRF with the green fields ahead too.

The Chinese have made it to the Moon!

Funny enough, when I used to ride a bicycle I would love downhills, on the motorcycle I prefer corners uphill too ...
-
I tested a properly nice one a year or two ago, a real big wheels and suspension mountain bike, wearing jeans and going 25kmh on a slight uphilll, if you've never ridden a normal non assisted bicycle it'll fool you into thinking that's a normal pace. It's like you're spiderman waking up the next morning after being bit by the spider

Pretty sure there's over 10 letters in that name, and only one is a syllable

Maybe the 300 is not that fast?

Actually, although having had roasted baby lamb lots of times, when they're that small and haven't had proper pasture there is no flavor to the meat, it's also got very little texture so not my kind of thing. It's considered a delicacy all over Spain and northern Portugal, though, but the meat does improve a lot after some growth in my opinion. I prefer to eat nice meat that had a chance to live instead of factory farmed. The brains and head (except fish) aren't really a Portuguese thing, though, I've got nothing against eating brain but never have.

Is that what they call a horny female over there?

I like that, lovely roads and views!
-
This one, by far, makes the bike's lines flow like it's moving.
-
It was so clean and polished! The owner took a cloth out of his top case after parking just to make sure no bits were in need of attention, it's an object of love for sure. I wouldn't mind if he went to work on my bike too, to be honest

Something must be lost in translation here, you had blue steak?

Not many pictures, plus it was just the usual short ride for lunch at my favourite hill top cafe. It's just half an hour each way but I really like it as it's all tiny roads since i leave the house, and it's right on my backyard. Getting to the hills via some nice roads through farm lands, still quite the ugly sky today There was a a Subaru meeting of sorts going there, I usually don't notice cars much but this had quite the presence, and never having been sold in mainland Europe, two door Imprezas are very rare, don't know if it was a replica made from a normal saloon but they both had the steering on the left so at least a conversion. Looked fast and this is certainly the kind of area to drive one, shame that being a sunday cyclists were popping out of everywhere. I wasn't alone on two wheels, and plenty more decided to grab lunch here today, a lot of variety concerning bikes Big top cases everywhere, they're very practical! A really clean ZZR600, you don't see them everyday anymore As I was finishing my burger, what looked like an ewok came over from his table to ask for a taste, too late little budy! Then stopped by the Dainese outlet to pay for my new jeans, buy a case of wine, and have a dessert expresso, and home. Although the skies look weird and grey, it's 21 or 22º now in the afternoon as I'm posting this from my garden, freaky weather but nice for a lazy sunday ride.

It's like People magazine person of the year award, by your logic once you win then that same person will be winner forever? To me it's a mix of what the bike is doing in the picture and has done in the month, the bike itself, the scenery, and the picture itself too. You do you, though, and post a low resolution picture of the bike parked between a gas station lavatory door and a dumpster on your way to buy the wife tampons, we're all alike in the eyes of the lord

Yes, you’ll find similar in some hills all over the french pyrenees, all over northern spain, and in several areas of Portugal. I think there might be similar in the italian alps too.

A hamburguer, a meat patty sandwich, but, with enough garlic or cilantro I’ll go for anything
-
Off for a burguer for lunch, and home early to lounge for the afternoon and evening. This is turning out to be a nice weekend.
-
Nice scenery too!
-
I think you only see the pictures… They’re very common to that area and where there is a lot of schist. In the center and north of Portugal winters are quite harsh in the hills, so that southern traditional white house with the painted ribbon on the bottom is not found there.
