Well done Pedro, that's a pretty good effort imo.  You could pehaps get off and talk to the camera when you're at the points of interest like the convent ?

The bonus was the nice view of your arse when you stood up on the pegs :classic_laugh: :classic_laugh: :classic_unsure:

Did more of that than usual as i had wet pants:classic_tongue:

 

Glad you like the view Bob :classic_huh:

You are just jealous of Pedro's younger backside...... lol

I'm about as jealous of Pedro's backside as I am of his shiny head! :classic_laugh:

Now his bike......well that's a different matter! :littleguy:

Sometimes you really need to spell it out for the old guys. ?

I really need some proper wet and cold weather riding pants to go with the jacket

The head, I don’t have a choice but at least it’s practical now :littleguy:

 

The bike, I really like it. Would not trade, only add different ones

Well, when we old guys see wet spots, we just assume. :classic_unsure:

gore-tex pants are what you need warm and waterproof ?

Got a pair ordered, I’m a weird size, but everything related to productions and dates is messed up and delayed.

and 5ft 6" overall ?

So you're 5'6"" with a 23" inside leg......and I'm around 5'11" with 35" inside leg. I think I got some of your legs somehow! :classic_laugh:

I used to get strange looks from bike salesmen who were taller than me when they would sit on a bike and be on tippy toes......and suggest the lower seat for me.

Then I'd sit on it with both feet on the floor and legs bent! They'd just look me up and down bewildered. :classic_laugh:

My problem is slightly the other way, I'm a 32 or 33' waist, a 48 or 50 in european sizing, and most pants rise a little up on the boot once in riding position, so ideally i need a little longer sizing, which wouldn't be a problem since a few manufacturers make them, I like Dainese. Wouldn't be a problem except deliveries and stocks have been failing a lot since covid started, it'll just take a little longer.
