Saddle up and move 'em out

Went out yesterday for a mammoth ride with the Algarve Senior Bikers. about 35 bikes i think, route attached, we went on what was the original N2 from Faro to Lisbon it was really quiet, until our assorted rides turned up and ruined the peace and quiet!
we stopped for a view photo on the descent and ended for lunch in the Faro de Moto clube awesome clubhouse.
Picks in my gallery or Facebook page. A few other vids of the twisty route on my youtube channel.
Hope someone enjoys this and the others as much as I did the ride, still smiling

I hate when it does that.

Great pictures and ride report!! I like your riding gear.

Nice documentation of the fun... but what's that attached to your front wheel? A mirror? A slider? Can't make it out?

ha! that made me smile. that my friend, is what we have in the uk to hold our paper road tax disc, to prove we have coughed up our hard earned dough! however since january the govt has stopped issuing the actual paper disc its all online now so our police forces have designed emergency contact and health detail forms which fit the now redundant holders
great question tho

And, good eye!

Wow! Interesting! Learn something every day!!! )

So KBG, you're a Scottish lass that resides in Cambridgeshire and posts videos of warmer climes?

Great video Jackie, but you're becoming a bit of an enigma!

I look forward to to our meet at box hill later this year.

Thanx for posting.

N2 is brutal, try to do it from the top in the North.

Really?
"a German-built enciphering machine developed for commercial use in the early 1920s and later adapted and appropriated by German and other Axis powers for military use through World War II."
Although, on reflection - Sometimes i feel like a machine!

Today, i rode across the Border into Spain! I wanted to let you see the border bridge which i video'd, but my macbook has died :-( and i know the rule, no pic.....it didnt happen...
Here's the route, and the bikes, parked on a street called, 'something, something...Honda...' Honestly!
This will likely be my last Algarve Adventure, bike goes to the shipping company Friday
26 sunny days without a bike boo!

I seem to have to same out of battery juice problem when I need my camera the most. I do feel for you on that matter.

Urgent update:
