Not sure if there is anyone from Portugal???
But Christiano Ronaldo is one of the best players going around at the moment.

I think you're the first from Portugal, 46UAs. But welcome to our world! What are the roads like in your part of the world? Sorry, but I have no idea what the terrain is like where you live...

Hi,
Here in Portugal we have good roads and 75% of good weather to ride.

I am very sorry to hear this.

He only mentioned his 954, I guess he never had the chance to post about his 600RR.

Hi,

Even though I'm not portuguese, I live in Portugal too.

It's allways sad to hear about a life that's been lost.

Keep your eyes wide open when ridding.

Cheers,

Edu

Hey guys,

I'm Portuguese as well!

Sad to hear about 46UAS, it always hurts when a fellow "motard" dies tragically like that...

Although the weather is almost always nice here, the roads are crap....just had my headstock bearings replaced because of the amount of:

1) Pot holes
2) Drainage covers
3) Speed bumps

....here in Portugal.

RIP Luis, I know that my post is well behind the times, I only just read it.

I am riding to Spain and Portugal in November this year on the way to Valencia for the MotoGP. we are taking the long way down as we want to ride through Cadiz and Gibraltar. If anyone has views or recommendations they would be gratefully received.

Hello again...

This is just too sad, for the 2nd time i bring bad news, but Edu (who has posted on this very same thread) tragically died on the 31st August 2008.

My friend you'll be forever with us, with your constant laughter and timeless punchlines!

Olá,

Another Tuga (short for portuguese guy).
As another fellow patriot said, we have great weather, lousy car drivers and lousy roads.

I myself have already thought in buying a XR650 to ride our "normal" roads. But I think I would miss the high torque, High speed of mine oldie but goodie 900rrs from 1994.

I´m from Oeiras, great place to live.

Regards to all...and remember keep the rubber side down

This thread is so tragic, mainly because of the few Portuguese on and statistically the numbers that are being killed on their bikes. Sad so Sad
