Moto Madrid – motorcycle fair

I spent an amazing day eyeing up all the bikes at the motorcycle fair. There were plenty of customised bikes to admire apart from the regular manufacturers’ bikes. I have no plans to change bike yet but still it is nice to look and try different bikes. I’m lacking the energy to write a proper post but I’ll post my best pictures nevertheless.

After seven months of riding, Fabian is back from his charity ride to an orphanage in Kathmandu. It seems not long ago I joined his farewell ride and saw him ride off on a shiny new Triumph. Now the bike shows quite a lot of wear and tear along with some nice decorations.
