My weekend?
Obviously I would have loved to stagger from bar to bar through the streets of a traditional Spanish town like Torrevieja or Albox.....wearing a football shirt and a "Kiss me Quick" hat......in the company of a bunch of beer gutted, monobrowed, monosyllabic, and multi-talentless Brits......but I couldn't!
Cos I rode my bike instead!





What you been doing then?

For a Biker, some of them roads are Awesome, like that one, It must be nice not to have a winter if your a Biker,

All I done is some work today and watch some Sport, its what I like, Its something ill be happy about in Spain, becuase the sports I like are played late in the day, so that will give you some life back in the daytime, Ill forward these Pix to my dad who is Biker of sorts, Im trying to get him to come out for a better life now he is retired and this sort of thing is right up his street

I know but there not long winters, and it depends where you are, earlier this year when costa Blanca was Bad I was in Sevilla at the time and the weather there was awesome, but other places Zarragozza for one was knee deep, maybe I should day more sunny day's to ride out

Spent part of my evening chasing down two kids of North African descent who decided to break into my Jeep while I was just 10ft away from them on the other side of a hedge. Them little ba#####s can run really, really fast and jump walls however. I never did catch them, but definitely got the wind up them. Looked as if they were about to swipe my mando for the garage as I found it on the floor beside the driver seat.

Wanted to go 4 wheeling today, but we have daughter #2 and grandchild #1 staying, so......

Hope everyone has a good weekend

Michael finished airbrushing one bike yesterday and starting another today!

I've been encouraging him and bringing him tea

XTreme

Fantastic work MnM!

MnM

Thanks XTreme

Big bike day in Calpe next Sunday, 14th. They are expecting over 4,000 bikes from all over Spain and Europe. It's being organised by the Cruzados, link here

We will be exhibiting some of Michael's work there, so he has been working non stop trying to get all the bikes ready.

XTreme

Thanks for that link MnM! And Ken Hensley is there too!
I'd like to get over for that.....is it all happening on the one day? What's the expected start and finish times?

MnM

Yes, I thought it might interest you!

This year the Bike Day is only a one day event, but this whole week and upto Saturday there is the famous German Beer Fest in Calpe and there are many bikers here for that as well.

The Bike day is on Sunday from about 11am until whenever everyone goes home late in the evening. It would be great to see you if you decide to make the journey .....just look for Custom FX tent and a lady on crutches

XTreme

When is Ken Hensley playing MnM? Is that on the Sunday?

MnM

From what Zippo (Cruzado's President) has told us, that is the Programme for the day, so yes as far as we know he will be performing on Sunday, but the exact times have not been made known yet.

I'll give Zippo a call tomorrow and see if he has specific time frames for the events.

XTreme

Cheers!

Hi,

Was going to PM you so as not to bore everyone else with this bike event, but for some reason it says that I cannot.

Anyway, the band which Ken Hensley will be playing (along with the others) is called the Rockets and they will be appearing at 1.30pm. I've attached the link to the poster (you can magnify by clicking on it) with the program at the bottom left corner.

More info on the event on this site here.

Really hope you can make it.

Thanks for that info!
