How good was that MotoGP!

Bloody hell.

Simoncelli would have had a grin a mile wide looking down and watching that one!

Not bad for an old bloke starting 8th and getting nudged at the start.

A cool, cloudy Tuesday morning,
but still better to be out playing on the bike than in the car heading to work...

[Tony nitrous 0]

Weathers been quite nice recently.
Dry and a bit cooler.

Yesterday it rained.

270mm / 11 inches !

Major flooding.

5 now reported dead in 3 separate vehicles washed away including an 8 year old boy.

Got up this morning, sun shining, another beautiful day.

Mates call this place "75" or 3/4.
75% of the time we live in paradise.
25% of the time it's either farkin' hot or storms!

RIP the 5 that are now gone.

Well, back in from work by two, all pretty much prepared. I've cancelled the hotel in Potes having seen the weather forecast so it's overnight in Zaragoza then straight on to the flat. Maybe have a ride up to Tarragona and into the mountains there at the end of next week. Leave in the morning for Plymouth.

[smilinjack 0]

Ride to the ferry went like clockwork :-D had a lovely run along the coast past Bilbao, then into the hills towards Vitorio Gasteiz. When we arrived in Zaragoza it was 32 degrees :-o storms tomorrow so booked an extra night here, do some sightseeing and maybe have a meal out in the hip quarter, el Tubo. Then on to Vinaros where forecast is sunshine and mid twenties all week. Fingers crossed. Chin chin :-)

Not without incident yesterday. Really windy out of Zaragoza, then set the alarm off passing through motorway toll :$ but once in the mountains things improved. Passed the Aragon circuit near Alcaniz, once we passed the highpoint at Torre Miro- 1207 metres-things warmed up too. Now having coffee on the seafront in my shorts, maybe go to Muntanyes de Prades for the day tomorrow. Hasta la vista

Ofcourse! Camera isn't in the place i would choose but thanks to the fat bars ( pretty low too ) the only place i can bolt it and keep it still is by the clutch perch. Pretty hidden from view, yet still records most of the view ahead/sides

Went fishing again today was trying out some ultra light tackle. 5'3" micro rod with a mini reel! 2 carp out on it within half an hour of setting up!





That little thing, caught a couple of these! this one was the smaller of the two

[madcarper 0]

Cleaned some of the bugs off the 14.
touched up the rust on the tanks dents,
put some oil on the rusty scars to the headlight,
"fixed" my broken front indicator with a heap of black electrical tape,
put sone more electrical tape and a couple of zip-ties around the plug on the back of my KOSO,
went around anything that's supposed to move with either the oil can or WD40,
topped up the oil and lubed the chain! Bike must think its Xmas!

Started to clean my Cyclone pipe,
found where another of my noises might be coming from...

My father in law passed away 10pm last night.
He was a Vietnam Vet, an Aussie "Digger".

He'd been ill for a while, heart, liver, kidneys, but he was a tough old bugger.
When the Docs said he was going, he stood his ground for another two weeks.

We got on well and he will be missed by myself and many others.

My own family are 10,000 miles away.
I only get to see them about every 18 months.

I'm heading home in 9 weeks time,
Taking them away for a week in Cornwall.
Looking forward to seeing my parents again.

Sorry for the ramble.




R.I.P. Laurie.
You made a good Father in Law.

Headed out over Mt Mee but the wet roads and mist turned to rain.
Headed back towards the City and did a loop around the Northside.
Only 150k / 90 miles but good to get out.
