K75 CAME TO 600.000KM!
Updated July 25, 2016
BMW K75 with 600,000
KMA BMW K75, indestructible company's executive director of Moto Clube do Porto reached the incredible 600,000 km!

Why not be normal a mileage of these on a motorcycle, much less in Portugal and on top to happen within the Moto Clube do Porto, here is the news. It is not now as it happened a few days before the 18th Lés-to-Lés. But with the organizational tasks then, here's these lines and photos to memory.

And if we consider that most of these kilometers were traveled in all of our club events, it is a source of pride. Yes, prepare short and long tours, tourist motorcycle rallies, "morcegadas" or mere day-to-day meetings, bringing the monthly newsletters to post or to represent the MCP in events or sports events since 1993.

The old lady BMW K75 seems to curves, economical and reliable. Thanks to its authentic "family doctor" who is the mechanic Bruno Soares.

Knowing that give back to the planet Earth for the widest circumference requires 40,075 kilometers, which this bike already rolled by quelhos, streets and here the roads of the town and also national highways and a little across Europe, it would be sufficient for almost 15 laps the globe.
