Agreed, they do look great, even more so in real life.

Still working, but won't over christmas. Next week I plan to ride around a bit and maybe enjoy some blue skies, but I'll officially be working, which I kind of always am, officially...

I liked it, the first couple of seasons and then it sort of got too weird. What I really liked was "Suburra"

I see, to really dig the ground up and make it extra soft for the big bikes

a big GS needs proper tires to deal with that and still feel like it's going somewhere uphill.

That bike always looks so cool! 2ºC on muddy trails and water crossings doesn't sound nice, though. What do you mean when you refer to "big bikes", exactly?

Is that Camorra? Edit: I see it's called different names according to the country, great show!

Do you not ride because of work for 1,5 years? Not trying to be a pest, but are you working on the covid treatment?

He would look like this guy on one of those

And since this isn't Annoying Person of The Year, I just switched my vote for the first time.

@Slowlycatchymonkey, just so there are no misunderstandings, we've never met, I don´t wish any harm or anything bad towards your, I wish you all the best and hope you do enjoy Spain and your travels, and be happy with life in general. It's just I find your posts annoying, simple as that, I don´t think that's such a big deal. I do have you on ignore for a while now, but every now and then I click on a post to see what it's about and there it is, annoying ... Could be worse, though, I don´t care much for all the gay and pedophilia comments and random insults, but if I ignored all those there would be little left these days.

Your thoughts on me probably changed since "forum gold", but I wasn't going to give it a second thought after voting, it's that Pete really wanted to create some fuss with an explanation and I felt bad about letting him down. If he can't create said fuss, then he can't issue the "calm down" post, and then what does he have? A Chinese bike to get away from being raped in ruins lost in the desert, and that's not much.

I am sure they're great for what they are made for, but I can't bring myself to like the look of the MT Yamahas: Or most of the modern Kawasakis, either sporty nakeds, sports bikes, or versys. I have no doubt they're great engines and capable bikes, and it might sound weird coming from a GS owner, but that front just look wrong to me:

Just my opinion, you came up for the vote and I voted for you since you're simply so annoying. No need to deflect and go off on a tantrum against my vices.

Clearly.

What kind of race series are you getting into, @Richzx6r, can you easily fit your 600 into one?

Are you scared it catches Covid?

I am undecided between Bob, Ian and Michelle, Bob for being a top guy, Ian for the amazing content of film worthy stories, and Michelle for being so sweet and all the ride report pictures. I'll wait a few days and see if my vote sways anything before casting it.

I voted for @Slowlycatchymonkey, wasn´t aware I was doing it covertly, she just somehow really annoys me with most of what she posts. I am still undecided if I change my vote for @XTreme, for trolling his own forum with useless questions, droning on about some other forum, and intrigues like the above.

I did pretty good. Work has been annoying but overall it turned out a pretty great year work wise, for me. Did a couple of great rides around Portugal, didn't turn out as expected but rode 10000km in 6 months so I guess I did more than I think. Emotionally, it's been an emotional rollercoaster and it's getting tiresome as I'm a little tired of dealing with my own moods, I'm in need of a couple of days by myself alone at home. I do hope 2022 brings a little more border relaxation and a trip to Morocco.

Not a hint of wind on that water, perfect!

That looks proper cold, way better than rain though. Doesn't it bother you not having the buttons and stuff where you can see them? With winter gloves on I can't really feel the thumb buttons.

The plan must be that the owners of the old and new bikes can ride in the same group with little effort of the new bikes to keep up
