Portugal trails??

I passed the ford we spent 30 mins crossing before we realised the trail didn't go through the ford... remember??

I'm in Braganca now where we stopped for lunch on the first day.

Nick

Hey Nick did you do the ADV 5 dayer in SW France after Portugal with Bernard ? maybe we've already met !!!

Phil,

No i didnt, I remember Bernard talking about it.

I've just done the first half of RB5 from Vibration, would have done it all, but my fuel pump had other ideas......

Nick

hi Nick, therapy has helped me forget, nah enjoyed the trip, good memories!

your pump going to be done for marroc?if you're still going?

the pump's a simple enough job, unfortunately pricy tho

Nick
If you need a pump (ktm 690 is it) i could try and get one here and bring it down. My mate Shan who's meeting us down there ride a 690 so he'll know where to get one here.

See you in Maroc Bernard

First day, that would be the ford with the bridge that Bernard went over sideways.... in his first attempt at taking Doug out (which we know he succeeded at later!)

Be interested to see how many of the trails are still open, or the ones that Bernard took on his own, or that bl00dy wood we went round half a dozen times before we found the way out!

.....got some unfinished business down that way....

Thanks for the offers but pump was done under warranty in Spain.
Bike has been fine for the last 3 days, so fingers crossed....

Nick.

Darren,

Don't remember getting lost in a wood?? Or is that the same place as Bernards Hill?
When I get there I'll see if I'm brave enough to try it....

Nick

No it was a few days after 'Bernards hill', around the same time you and me had a few offs, we had just started to get to 'the sand'.....

Had a couple of detours today. Some roads have been updated and you can no longer get off the trail onto the road. Trail either ends or there's a tunnel under the road.

Remember the stream we crossed after riding around what looked like allotments? No crossing anymore.

Weather not as good as last time either... pissed it down most if the day.







The sheep were on the track around the lake which we did after lunch in the first day.

Nick.
