SnakechrmrWith Covid hysteria running rampant, most European borders closed to Americans traveling on a passport visa, Serbia being a small country and every large motorcycle rally cancelled in 2020 it was hard to put miles on the bike but I did finally hit 130K.
Snakechrmr added 2 new photos. 1st Photo - Jul 2006, Newly purchased in the US, 15 miles
2nd Photo - Jul 2020, sitting in Serbia after 14 years,130,000 miles and 2 months in a box crossing the Atlantic

Snakechrmr → UniversalRiders: It was an OK time but only because I lived in Portugal for 10 years and have a lot of friends there. The rally was the smallest and poorest attended I've seen since it was last held in Portugal in 2012. Not really Portugal's fault as the country is... moreIt was an OK time but only because I lived in Portugal for 10 years and have a lot of friends there. The rally was the smallest and poorest attended I've seen since it was last held in Portugal in 2012. Not really Portugal's fault as the country is just too far west so it's a long ride from east Europe, Asia or North Africa. For me from Serbia it's about 3500 km. Next year is again in Portoroz, Slovenia. Last there in about 2016. Was a pretty good time.
UniversalRidersThanks a lot for your feedback, we couldn't go there this year (in Cascais) so it's good to have this kind of feedbackWe are very busy with the motorcycle rentals in France and Portugal, a lot of motorcycles were used for the Wheels and Waves this year... moreThanks a lot for your feedback, we couldn't go there this year (in Cascais) so it's good to have this kind of feedbackWe are very busy with the motorcycle rentals in France and Portugal, a lot of motorcycles were used for the Wheels and Waves this year for example.

Started in Texas, 7 years Army, year in Alaska, 6 years in West Africa on a humanitarian project with World Health Organization, 3 years in Nigeria (real craphole) and now Europe to finish out livin'. Left Portugal after 10 years and moved to Serbia. Looks like the restless bug bit again. But this is the last move. I'm getting too damn old to have to learn a new language every few years.
Just seem to get a little restless after a while. Always willing to turn down a dirt road just to see what's at the other end.
