There was a strike amongst the drivers carrying dangerous loads and they tried to stop all fuel transports. I'm obviously not sure, but the same must have happened in other countries for whatever reason.

Portugal has mobilized the army to deliver fuel two or three years ago.

I don’t get it @Tym, why are they old?

Well, it won't break down just because you haven't got a warranty, will it? Thinking about it, when's the last time a bike broke down on you, that you are so worried about it?

Big rain through the night, but sunday is cold and blue, some forrest roads might be a little slippery though:

Well, to get the story right: it was one wolf! and he didn't get to them, luckily

I quite like the idea of this.

Moist nuts are the worst

I'd like to know who that guy Kent is and why everyone is riding around his place. Maybe you should try and get him on here @XTreme, must be quite the interesting fellow.

It's raining a little, everything's dirty. Plus the neighbors bitches are in heat and my dog is going insane, I've been going for 15 walks per day No riding today, I just don't feel like it. I've been dieting a little, plus having no alcohol at all, and pretty fed up with stuff, I'm feeling quite angry Will take the car to the mechanic to switch off a service light that shouldn't be on and have a coffee.

CB500X wouldn't be a bad choice for easy hard packed dirtroads, also saving you a lot of money on another bike. I would just use your own bike at first when testing the waters. On the dry most tires will be ok, I find my tires to be really good for any pace I ride on road and adequate for dry compacted gravel or dirt, TKC70.

After what?

In Portugal you can ride with them on all you want but only with no oncoming traffic, with oncoming traffic or other vehicles 100m in front of you, you are obliged to switch to the medium brightness ones. It makes sense to me, I don't like being blinded either.

I envy that, I used to love driving cars with my brother on the road, on track we never did as being the big brother I would be either worried and baby sitting him, or letting our competitive nature get out of hand. Probably never going to ride bikes with him, though, the only time I let him borrow my Transalp it ended against a car

Fuck, I am cringing just thinking about how much that must have hurt

loved the fire fighters!

She’s a right twat then

Terrible business, all I see is people nursing their drinks!

When someone waits till the last moment of the day to send you a work email, to which you reply instantly only to get an "out of office for a long weekend" reply. Twats Can you call a woman a twat?

The two that voted for you are solid, though, Pete, good result ...

I am guilty of sometimes medicating with wine. Sometimes I would need a sleeping aid or something calming, but wine is more fun than that. Falling asleep without trying or difficult thoughts is great for me, though, so it is difficult to let go of it, but I was sort of spiraling a little out of control so am now enforcing a little self control over a few days.

I think it depends on your need for it, more so than even volume. If you need it to get through the night or to cope with something, I would say yes even if it's just one drink. If you can just drink something non alcoholic for a few days and feel no real need for it, I would say no.

Didn't take long So the government announced that the man in charge of the whole vaccination thing, who is an Admiral, was to be promoted to chief of the armed forces, being the highest ranking military person in Portugal, and would replace the current one. Later the same day the President came out to say nothing was going to be done without his say so, and that there is no reason to demote the current chief after only being there for 3 months and having done nothing wrong (except criticize a couple of things the government did). What a shit show these politicians put out

wow wow wow, "billy liar" is maybe taking things too far with the insults, better calm down

Nice work with the blue lines there!
