Listened to it on higway....

PS Tina Arena's album "In Deep" was on all the time. Love it...

Vudis,
Great pictures, almost as green as my green and pleasant land.
I wonder if you put another 50 years on your age, would you be listening to that er, music? I surely would not.
Nice bike a credit to you.

4. Last one... for a change

Really nice looking places, one day I'd like to be there. I can't park on that side of the road here, a truck wud clean me up.Looks strange but I guess
thats the legacy of British invaders.
Keep riding, we are getting cold here now

I like driving my k100rt despite the facts that it consumes so much fuel and despite the fact that yesterday my central stand decided to break

Careful we don't want you to wear it out and hell it is only money just think how you are helping the global economy and those poor oil companies.
I do enjoy the pics and music references though so keep it up and an 1100 centre stand is the way to go.

Wear out what? The BMW? I think the old bms are made to run forever....

Phil, thanks for your comment

So, one more picture from todays feast "Bikers' nights", which took place in Kaunas, the second largest city of Lithuania.

Thanks for letting us travel you country. I really enjoy the pics.

As I am renovating my 30 years old house, I don't have a lot of opportunity to ride my bike. Any sunny day is spent working on it (roof, windows ,siding and some inside improvement like new bathrooms) .
Even taking the bike to work is not an option.
I am travelling over 40 different sites, and cannot walk in with my rider's gears. I am supposed to be a 'professional' and have to be properly dressed. The riding jacket, pants and boots don't fall in this category and I will not ride if I don't wear the proper gear.
Bugger!
I really enjoy all your rides report. Keep us updated with pictures.

Bert

Thanks Crazy Frog for your thoughts.

Last year I made a lot of trips, but it happened so I did't grab a camera with me, so was unable to shoot out most of rides.

This year I have got the Nokia N82, a mobile phone, who makes really nice pictures.

So a camera-phone is always with me and there will be more pictures...

BTW: I already bought a ticket to TOTO concert in Finland And Finland is just 700 km away

So basically you have a camera you can make phone calls on!

Very impressive.

Yes, that's what I meant.

Anyone else wishing to join me for a TOTO concert in Finland? Or is that an impossible challenge for ya?

In a crowd

Especially for people who live in Great Southern Land: the white bus-alike vehicle is a trolleybus And the wires over there are for trolleybuses

Those living in Melbourne (Capital of Victoria) are all too familiar with what we call trams but a very useful piece of public transport except for the tramlines themselves which don't mix with two wheels all that well.

Keep the photos going and I did not know TOTO was still around. Having said that Deborah Harry is apparently coming to Launceston with Chrissy Hynde which is a bit of a coup.

In 2009, Steve Lukather said: "Toto - No More". But:

2010: Temporary reformation


It was announced February 26, 2010 that the band would be reuniting for a brief tour of Europe in the summer to benefit Mike Porcaro, who is living with ALS. The lineup will feature David Paich, Steve Lukather, Steve Porcaro, Simon Phillips, Joseph Williams and special guest Nathan East.

So, my dream came true I've already got the ticket One of their concerts will be in Finland.

The other dream would be to see Icehouse and John Farnham.

Okay, here a picture from a night ride: my bm and my friends slightly restyled Dnepr.



What is a Dnepr? Almost the same as Ural, but with a more advanced oil system.

Today, a small ride with +31 outside

The ferry is a unique thing here, because it was made in 1923 and is still working perfectly. What is more incredible, to cross the river, it doesn't use any engine :O

When you say the ferry doesn't have an engine.... Is it pulled by a cable and winches on the shore?
we have few like these in Nova Scotia.

It's self-propelled cable ferry, the so called Reaction ferry.

Here's a picture after yesterdays ride "Rally Around Lithuania with Soviet motorcycles".

Actually, my friend and me, we were just observers, not the participants

So, 1 picture.

Let's call it "A Grandma with her granddaughter"
