The forecast for Portugal is perfect for riding motorcycles, not too hot, all under 30c.
If you are anywhere in the central region, feel free to pop in, I could even offer you a bed if you need it...You have a choice of two houses.

That’s a very kind offer 
Replied to you.

I found a nice little hotel in Vila Real for the night.
Breakfast included and the Billiard Room for the bike.
€50 all in
Portugal is great

The roasted chestnuts smelt lovely 
The fat man will be ditched for tomorrow as I need to ride the N221 through the Douro Valley.
It’s not to be missed (thank you Rick
)
It’s a great hooning road so I hope it won’t be too embarrassed to have a romantic rider mooching along it.

Good evening 
Love Portugal, going again in May, love Super Bock too, not a fan of Douro Valley for riding, good views mind.
If you pop in to see ATT, run if he fires up his new chainsaw.

I’ve always said that you can’t beat a good El Classico Hotel on the edge of town.
And a balcony with a view.
Plus a 24/7 fag machine.
They don’t fuck about in these parts!

Fun fact.
I didn’t realise that the UK and Portugal run the same time zone.
And there was me this afternoon trying to thump the bikes TFT and Chigee into giving me the right time difference.
Some people shouldn’t be allowed out on their own.

Before Covid I went away with a group of senior golfers to SW Spain, flying in and out of Faro.Fun fact.

We were told by the organiser what time we were being picked up on the Sunday evening and duly assembled/shuffled en mass ready for the coach to arrive at the Hotel reception. The pick up time came and went without any sign of the coach and the organiser soon started to work himself into a lather. After several calls between him and the tour operator who in turn had to phone the transfer company we found out the transfer company (who were Portuguese and based in Faro) were quoting Portuguese time which was 1 hour behind Spanish time. Our couch duly arrived on (Portuguese) time, the organisers blood pressure dropped but the piss taking increased with him repeatedly being asked time related questions.
Enjoy your trip
Another day starts in paradise.
Love this beautiful part of the world.
Stopped for coffee.
And was joined by some Brits doing the Portuguese TET.
They brought their bikes down in a van from the tunnel and have two weeks off roading.
