Last week I took a trip to Morocco with my two boys, we did a roadtrip, starting in Marakesh and whent all the way to the Sahara and came back trough the Atlas mountains. Here are some photo's.

I was quite nervous to travel solo with em but It's been a wonderfull experience!

Went on a 3 day trip to Irland, drove the Ring of Kerry, image taken at Torc Waterfall. The whole trip was wonderfull!

Story time

Last year I received a pair of 888-UHR as a gift from @Memphisakers and it actually started a short lived topic called 'the filthy gift' where you give away an item and the person who wants it also gifts an item etc. in Memoriam of late forum legend Mike.

Fast forward about 18 months of almost continuous wear and 3 soaks. Hope I made Mike proud

I could tell by the color of the water, that this would be a good soak.

The coulor after the rinse is like perfect blue

This is where I'm at:

I'll be sending em back to IH for a hem and will take a picture under natural light once I get 'em back, these pictures don't to this pair justice

Last saturday was one for the history books. I was able to grill a whole left beefribcage over an open fire on a home made setup. Took about 8u of both direct and indirect heat. The result was incredible and I ended up sharing the food with 40 people.

The food and drink was good, but the time spend with friends and family were de real soulfood. This is why I love BBQ.

Our old sofa needed replacing so after months of searching the internet, I landed this good as new "FSM" (a sister company of "de Sede") Velas for 350€ on a second hand website. (retail was about 16K) but more importantly, I think it looks and sits great!

like you, I'm on a similar path. In the last "Ironcast" episode, @Blowoutthecobwebs spoke about a Netflix series called 'the minimalists' that I actually watched a couple years ago when it just came out and while the guys voice is quite annoying what he said still sticks with me to this day.

My wife left me in the beginning of last year and despite it being an emotional shitstorm, it also gave me the opportunity to start fresh. Half my house was empty and I could chose if I wanted to replace something or not. Instead of just going to Ikea and getting the same items, I'm taking my time living with less stuff and found out I rarely miss anything. If I do have to buy something, I'm going for the best item to serve my purpose.

As for clothes, the biggest thing that got me to reduce my wardrobe is to only buy black clothes. (with the exception of my 21/23OZ because IH doesn't make that in black YET)
Going into the city center, I see so many people aimlessly shopping around trying to fill some sort of void that it's really making me sad sometimes. Or going into stores like H&M or Zara and seeing all that crap clothing just waiting to be worn once and thrown out, all the labor and effort for people who don't need it... We give cars such a bad rep for ruining the planet, and nobody bats an eye about people throwing out 81 pounds of clothing each year, it blows my mind.

Anyway, I always have an eye open for interesting stuff, but rarely do I buy something now because I 'need it' and that helps keep my focus on what's most important: my kids.

I love how the crazy scales start at 4

@jfive67 if only they came in Black fade to gray

Bought these from @Giles because he was cleaning out his collection. If I remember correctly, these were the OG 1955 prototype or something (notice the AERO patch and the unconventional pocket arcs). Worn for 2 years—the 1955 is my favorite Iron Heart cut by a mile right now. Sending them back to Gosport for a quick repair, and then they'll be right back on my legs.

@Matt, that reminds me of the coffee barista episode from the series: 'bad thoughts' (if you haven't seen it - go watch all of it!)

bump - still open to offers

@Sage954 Do I detect a fellow Pantera fan?

Bump, this needs a new home! Make me an offer

@Pointman I would run this a bit oversized, just like Paul Newman did. Since the buttons are off centre you won't notice it as much and you get a lot more room for movement.

short evening ride to clear my head

@Brock Thats it right there! Freedom in nature. Love it

I’ve fitted new tires for the summer. While I’m still undecided on the tan-wall look versus the classic all-black, there’s feel like a smoother roll.
