Women have brains, dude!

Give it up dude, enough already, it was to un tie a tie

At lunch time I left to pick up a replacement part for my brother's car, it was only a 80km ride on the main road to get there, on the way back I decided to ride through one of the nicest "serras" in this area, "Serra d'Aires e Candeeiros" A brief stop at Porto de Mós, just for a picture of a pretty castle while not really going into the town: This is an incredibly rocky area, the fields are divided using just rocks off the floor, it's amazing the number of small walls and fields. Took a little path out of the road and stopped to say hello to some very friendly cows Carrying on, this is a true maze of small paths around the fields, made my way back to the road I like simple flowers Stopped to check where I was and this lonely dude came by for a nose rub Got off the road again and stopped by this very pretty but weird and sad landscape. This area was all burned a little while ago, maybe last year, and the color of the moss growing really struck me, I don't think the camera made it justice. Stopped for something specially for Pete, there are lots and lots of old falling apart windmills in this area, these were pretty Even though this are tall hills, you can still see the ocean quite close by, I think this is a pretty cool area. Very cloudy today, the ocean is there though ... Now, coming back home stopped by Rio Maior to get some salt straight from the salt mines. There is a underground stream that crosses a salt mine so the water comes to the surface with a very high concentration of it. The salt they get here is more powerful than usual sea salt is, and I like this salt flower on salads and overall cooking It was a pretty nice afternoon.

On a recently burned area, nature comes back

This ends tonight, and so far we've got Michelle and Pete with the same number of votes leading the results. Maybe someone who voted for Moon and myself (very much appreciated, you are obviously individuals of taste ) would care to change their vote in order to decide the result? If it doesn't I might let it go another day and see what happens?

... that when rocks break my lights, they hit the bike from behind

That looks like a cool relaxing ride, nice one!

What makes it a gun belt?

I am missing the story, what kind of place do you have to have a piece of paper to prove you visited?

Done, really thought it was S

February saw most members not riding, on the last weekend some of us just couldn't hold out anymore, here are this month's few entries. Few, but good! It'll all blue skies this month, take a look and cast your vote: @Grasshopper's Ride's Honda CB500F on Canada's Sunshine Coast @MooN's Triumph Tiger 800 XC enjoying the french countryside @Pedro's BMW R1200GSA on central Portugal's countryside @XTreme's BMW G650GS out on Southern Spain's mountains

It’s an abandoned warehouse...

That’s a nice dirtroad!

You value it more now indeed

I forgot the bread

No, maybe this one instead

I think winter is over. Blue skies today, green fields, and plenty of wild flowers Getting out of the road and following a steep windmill access, but turns out it was a closed property, still pretty nice: Love this time of year's colors: It was a pretty nice ride, today. Plenty of bicycles and motorcycles around, but sadly plenty of groups stopped in scenic spots, plenty of groups riding and walking as well, which goes to show you can't trust people to go out and enjoy a sunny day without being in each others' faces. I didn't take pictures of any of that because I didn't want to stop amongst the people, I rode alone and stopped to enjoy locations where I was alone.

I liked that, perfect "winter is over" feeling !

Sun is out, going for a ride buying bread or having a business meeting

Looks nice, but I’m curious as to the result in wind buffeting

If you’re talking about the wood carrying wagon toy thing, no as it isn’t a motorcycle. About the Tomos, I would say no because we would be accepting it just because it’s you and we’re buddies. No rentals, no borrowed bikes, no stolen bikes, etc...

A few of @Sofia on the Speed Triple, on the last one it was proper dusty after a very powdery track:
