Weather is very nice, here, but can't get myself to go for a ride even though I've been looking forward to it all week. It's full of twats on bikes outside, and I know I'll be annoyed by weekend traffic if I go somewhere in the hills. I don't like riding up here in the north, so just had a nice walk with Costa, and will have an early lunch to then watch the 24H Nurburgring, which is a race very close to my heart and promises to have changing and challenging weather this year, it'll be THE motorsport to watch this weekend. You can watch it live here:

A KLR is about the same but a third of the engine? Or did you mean Dolly Parton?

That's front heavy, it's different ...

Good job having a guy dressed like a storm trooper dropped next to you when talking to the cops, gives it an air of credibility!

The dude is talking about a 900cc triple on a tall 90s suspension, Pete, can't get more top heavy than that!

You would have to ride a Boeing or an Airbus to do that!

I saw one of the Benellis they have on number one here, live, a week ago. Seemed very much like shit from China, Chinese shit! Please delete these communist propaganda posting bots!

I am sorry, I'm on the wine!

If she ever has doubts, buy an old Suzuki 800!

her quick? @Tym only smiled at her from a distance, give the man a chance!

@Clive, ride over and the bread you take back home will be on me!

Sorry, i meant week, I have been working though, quite a lot between dog shits!

Dom. Sarron did the tour of France rallies with a TMax, it was proper motoring the way he did it. Over here they're all the rage for racing on the streets of Lisbon, I watched in disbelief how a master race mechanic had a TMax with a ducati front end on it, full suspension, brakes and wheel, they're clocking 200kmh on the GPS, a scooter!

GAY shit right there with the 750 Hondas, if you own a big scooter be a proper man and own up to it! In fact, the gayest shit I've ever seen was a couple on one of those 750 Hondas with aluminium cases, might as well have been the guys from "wham!" touring incognito!

Absolutely not, however... Would oldschool bikers be seen on them? Not here, they wouldn't! I have no problem with scooters, my GS having next to none space under the seat I dream of the time when I have an excuse to have under seat space for groceries or a weekend's change of clothing! I have had wine on a friday, honestly allert!!!!

I spent the weekend staying at my parents' home, going for two very short walks in the morning with my dog, and one short one in the afternoon, as he's got a very poorly knee after having damaged an acl ligament, if it doesn't mean anything in english I don't know how to explain, point being he needs rest but being a dog he still fancies going out and smelling them bitches! Me? I just spent all week hanging out with him and dealing with business, may has probably been the best month I've had since beginning of last year business wise, but always with the spanish axe hanging over my neck, guess what I have in common with my dog? Now, having dealt with some customers and suppliers while watching the final qualifying race for tomorrow's Nurburgring 24H race I am trying to decide if tomorrow is going to be motorcycle riding day in northern Portugal (not my cup of tea traffic wise) or if I'll just walk Costa and then watch the start of the 24N live on youtube after lunch, it's a tough call so far! (I know, not a proper biker!!) After having had a bottle and a half of nice white wine from the Alentejo, I am struging to make this decision clear headed.

doesn't really matter, does it? Dude rides it to buy a loaf of bread... unless he starts fancying a proper french baguette there's no problem, stick to local bakeries!

I don’t know whether to be happy or sad about that, but it’s still funny!

I’m having trouble understanding how a dealer is of no use for this, regardless of warranty being valid or not. Maybe they’re as useless as the portuguese ones. Also, if the alarm is connected to the loom, is it not easy finding out which wires from the alarm go into which wires from the plug and replicate a plug?

Welcome back, Clive! I'll be having a few glasses of wine tonight, if I then call anyone a dumb brit please don't take it too badly.

If you don’t take my complaints seriously I might have to leave forever!
