Default Sunday ride

Last weekend got all warm and sunny so I couldn't waste my chance for a nice ride. Me and my buddy headed out to the countryside, and it seemed like there were zillion of ride hungry bikers who were let loose, lol. Ayways we did something like 80 miles that day (shamed to admit I ran out of gas at one point, forgot to fill'er up ) and even got some off road fun.

This is one of the castles (ruins of it, actually) to the west of Krakow (city where I live)

Congrats on the ride time. lol on running out of gas. Good thing is that you have a light ride to push.

thanks guys. To set the record straight though, this thing isn't exactly light - its almost 200 kg (440 lbs) dry, with all fluids in it's like 480 lbs. Good thing though I ran out of juice while I was still in the city so didn't have to push it that far.
Another thing I foud out, road tires are worthless in mud - OK, it doesn't take a genius to figure that one out, I know.

yes they do. If you want to go see something really spectacular go to Alpine regions, be it Italy, Germany, Austria or France. Last month I drove there in a car and I'm telling you, some sights are just jaw dropping. I mean I had to pull over and stare, you know? Just make sure you go there in summer - I was cut off by snow fall at one point. If you want to rent a bike that shouldn't be much of a problem, plus I bet you can go anywhere just as long as you stay within the EU.

3 seconds on google : http://www.rental-motorcycle.com/eur...pe_rental.html to get a general idea about rental costs.
