love the hay ground silo shot

Me too. I had to ride into a farmer's field to get it which I'm not too sure he would appreciate but it was only like 100ft off the road. lol

Yesterday I took the bike out for my traditional Honda-and-mine birthday ride. Hope you like the pictures


First one is taken in Galve de Sorbe (Guadalajara-Spain), with a view of the 15th century castle and the graveyard at the right.

Second one under the porch of the decaying village school at Valvieja (Segovia-Spain)

You must have torn up a couple pages then....  ;D

I know a castle is something uncommon for you americans or aussies -or kiwis-. Brits and the rest of europeans have their fair share of them....

Hey Raul Happy Birthday :) :) 
Thanks for putting a little more perspective on old buildings. Around here, anything over 100 qualifies as really old.

If you show the picture to an spaniard what he may find strange is not the castle but the CB750 - not so common over here. Bike imports were banned until 1982 or so.


Didn't I already post one with the roman aquaduct behind? That's indeed old....

Go figure what it is like to live in Rome: they start digging a basement and some ancient ruins pop up - work forbidden until authorities examine the findings. No wonder people either don't do any work involving digging, or do it at night time!

Few more pics of my '73 750 taken today around Las Vegas. In the first 3 pics, the tall buildings in the background is the world famous Las Vegas Strip. Hard to believe the whole state is built around those little bumps.

Could do with a seat though.  :(

Yes, Dali, was a great influence but I lost him at Golders Green tube station. I hope da feck he doesn't bring any strange people to the flat.
Someone with Photoshop skills can sort that seat and make me feel like a hero.
