Poland

I've been away or a few days to a wedding in Poland. I have to admit that I did not have a very positive image of Poland before I went, but that was all ignorance. I'll keep it short: Beautiful country, wonderful people, hospitality must have been invented by the Polish, traffic is way better then I expected and I will NEVER EVER get in a car again that is being driven by my mother in law. NEVER.

But Poland is now somewhere near the top of the list of countries I want to go on vacation to.

Beemer cafe (a very nice one)



Shitty weather.....

..... means time to do some (less necessary) stuff on the bikes. A friend of mine is getting the carburators of his classic Alfa Romeo ultrasonically cleaned, a nice opportunity for me to get the carbs of the CB cleaned. So under the watchful eye of my cat I took them off, disassembled them and I just gave them to Max who is going to clean them. Hopefully the weather will improve a bit soon, because I got a photo request for the BMW, more on that later.

The season is pretty much over


Autumn has begun. That means that the BMW probably won't see daylight until spring (unless we get a couple of days with dry roads. The BMW needs dry roads with the velocity stacks) and the CB will only be used when necessary. Weather-wise it wasn't the best season ever, but bike-wise it was. I was very happy to have both the BMW and the CB at my disposal. Nice.

Moto Mucci's CX500

The CX 500 is by many regarded as one of the ugliest bikes ever build and I can't completely disagree. So turning that bike into something nice is quite an achievement. Moto mucci turned one into more than something nice, he turned it into something stunning. Just judge for yourself:
