XTreme Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 ........and God knows some of you need it, then I'm here to help! Because I actually got out for a few hours today as we're not having the grandkids! So I was pretty much free till I leave for Guadix at 7PM. I crossed into Murcia and found some abandoned shit to brighten my day up. Things feel right on the bike now cos I've got my Top Box on.......and it came in handy later on when it warmed up, cos I could take my jumper off rather than sweat my nuts off! You can get three seasons in a day here and with a Top Box you know you've got it covered regarding clothing. And it was great not to have water bottles hanging out of jacket pockets anymore! Anyway......sit back in awe and see how it's done! Not too good a surface most of the time but I managed to wobble across it like a Bruce! Deserted shit everywhere......the fucking place don't even have a name! Bit more wobbling needed...... Then I managed to get back on tarmac...... But not for long...... Epic shit as you can see....... As I've said before, it's good to have the peace of mind that you're on a Honda when you're in some seriously remote place! So there we go........remember that anyone is welcome to come over and tag along! I don't discriminate! Obviously, if you don't think you're up to it, then you can always just carry on trolling and bullshitting on the Net. The choice is yours! 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saul Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Some great pics pete, I just get the feeling you aren't going to be happy unless you find a corpse out in the desolate abandon wastes you visit. Managed my 64 mile commute to work and back yesterday on the bike in the sun. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame the topbox brought my lunch back up Missing Spain so much. Did you know it recently placed 4th as most desired place to live, only Switzerland, Canada and somewhere else I can’t remember ranked higher.

Even I, and believe me I love where I am from, am getting fed up with with the daily grind in Britain at the moment. I would happily move abroad now. If it were on the cards I would chose either Ireland or one of the Scandies, or possibly rural Belgium. I’m not good in the heat. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yer the majority of reasons stated were cost of living (and the poll was prior to the energy price hikes), pace of life/work life balance and fragmented society. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we are aren’t we and thats no bother for the majority, I’d even go as far to say differences are often enjoyed. The nasty and extreme minority are always loud and the media love clickbait. Although when applying fragmented to the haves and the have nots, the privileged out of touch twats who lord over us deciding how to stuff their pockets at our expense with no regard for people who can’t afford to turn the heating on is quite fragmenting. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you have the huge event (paid for by the public) of the Coronation coming up to look forward to. For those suffering from the Inherited Peasanthood gene there's plenty of souvenirs available! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
