Old men in Algarve on gravel

Post by ErikGustav2 »

What started 3 years ago with some test rides on gravel roads has now grown to a formal activity.
With an Algarve Senior Bikers Gravel group.
That make an common tour, once per month

May's tour attracted 13 senior persons (not only men).
We spent a day on easy gravel roads. We enjoyed the riding, the weather and the views.

A mixture of bikes.
Honda NX4, BMW GS classic model, Honda CRFs, Hi,malayans. Tenere, Kawasaki KLX......


(Only 2 bikes/riders made it to this top. One 22 year old and one brand new Honda
