Forget perfection. Let’s just make it a tango to remember!

New year.

New calendar.

Clear skies.

Cool temperatures.

Dry roads.

Great crowd.

Amazing vibes.

One seriously sexy parking lot!

Yes, we kicked off 2026 with a bang. The riding gods smiled upon us with a perfect winter day—and sure as hell, we didn’t waste it.

It all started at Kettles. Yes, our usual haunt. Solid turnout. Plenty of catching up to do, because we hadn’t seen each other since last year… so you know how that goes.

The vibe was so good the briefing started late (surprise, surprise). Direction: South. The long way south—because we’ve been missing those long-ish rides.

About 40 km of pure joy took us through Mriehel > Attard > Żebbuġ > Qormi > Luqa > Ħal Far > Birżebbuġa > Żejtun > Kalkara > Bormla… including roughly a dozen sleeping policemen who clearly weren’t asleep.

In Bormla, we stopped for a “coffee” at the bar next to the stairs at Dock 1. Love the spot. As if the ride wasn’t enough, we were welcomed by a violinist playing The Tango from Scent of a Woman. Love the movie… and the woman 😏

It was just perfect—relaxed, classy, and totally pleasant. The morning flew by like a dream.

Some of us stretched the day with lunch, others called it a wrap and headed home for family time. All good choices.

Big thumbs up to everyone for making La Valette so special.

Always a pleasure, folks.

Can’t wait to see what 2026 has in store.

We’re gonna rock 🤘
