JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 9hunfortunately, I made the curry sauce a tad too thin to spread on toast for breakfast, works though 010
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 21hNothing changes... The Polish Catholic Church and the Authorities have been covering up for paedophile priests for decades & decades, it was particularly rife during the time of Pope John Paul II #Poland #Polska #PastorBonus #CodeofCanonLaw #PaedophilePriests #JasnaGóra 040

JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 13/10/2026Oh! Well done to this person on Allegro who is importing Guinness Zero straight from Ireland: allegro.pl/produkt/piwo... not sure of the legality of it, but good luck to them they also import McDonnell's Curry Sauce, bit pricey but... #GuinnessZero #McDonnellsCurry #Poland #Polska 130

JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Autumn is truly upon us time to get the warmer bike clothes out of the closet & to begin my annual search for a pair of reflective / bright coloured winter gloves that actually fit me... instead of wearing builder's gloves with another pair underneath ...wide hands short fingers! #MotoSky #Gloves 3151
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 10/10/2026...you utter gobshite James!! Check if it's in gear first! wouldn't start at the pump pushed it to the side & used the jump-start pack, without checking first... Anybody recommend any replacement mirrors... maybe I'll go chrome this time? (vid slowed down for your amusement) #MotoSky #CheckFirst 1142
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 09/10/2026there was a 3 door when it came out in 82, my mates dad had one, then I think it was dropped at some stage... definitely saw early Sierras with a single rear side window 230
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Ok ...that stuff on the right, you can f*ck right off, it's only the 8th October and that stuff on the left, what the f*ck have ye got to do with Oíche Shamhna or an tSamhain? ...especially the Welsh Hats!!?? 040
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 06/10/2026The return to the village... and now there are some mushroom hunters parked at the edge of the forest section This little video is a fraction of the journey, but then, once you seen one field... #MotoSky #OldPolishRoads #JMZrides 020
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I had to go to a pharmacy for something that in the village would cost a small fortune so I went to the city ...and took 'the long way' [excerpts from the journey down the old main road, no longer used by traffic ...for now! in the next post, the return, less sun] /1 #MotoSky #OldPolishRoads 1172
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 06/10/2026After speaking to locals I believe this snake was a Żmija zygzakowata aka Adder (Vipera berus) A few years ago there was quite the plague of them (...news to me!) and signs were put up in forests where they had been seen #Snake #Nathair #Wąż #Poland #Polska #Adder #NathairNimhe #Żmijazygzakowata 090
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Apparently not another Starbucks for 75 kilometres... thank the gods for small mercies, there are places that sell real coffee for a fraction of the price ...i just don't understand the fascination 150
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 05/10/2026A couple for the #History buffs, of #PolishWars in particular 2 monuments; 1: to the 'January Uprising' of 1863, Battle of Mazówki – October 3rd, 1863 2: from WW2 days after the Nazis had invaded Poland, dedicated to the Wolhynian Cavalry Brigade / Wołyńska Brygada Kawalerii /1 #MotoSky #Poland 291
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Ha! that looks like the ceiling of one of our outbuildings every time I go in I wonder how it is being held up 010
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 04/10/2026a little ride from one side of the reservoir dam to the other Some enormous Swan shaped pedaloes for hire! /2 #MotoSky #PolishReservoirs #Poland #Polska #JMZrides 040
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Visited a very big reservoir on my travels today Reservoirs are important recreational facilities in Poland, you can't swim in many, but people buy plots of land around them to use as summer homes either with a caravan or some very odd constructions... #MotoSky #PolishReservoirs #Poland #JMZrides 1170
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 04/10/2026We have a few too, the red one ended up in an airport bin though 110
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 04/10/2026...a longer version where I meet another traveller, and have to wait until I am a good bit past him before I can let rip otherwise the sand would have blinded him! /2 #MotoSky #OffRoadEncounters #OldPolishRoads #JMZrides 030
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Well hello travellers... don't see many of these up here I had to go very slow afterwards otherwise I would have kicked up a lot of dust... /1 #MotoSky #OffRoadEncounters #OldPolishRoads #JMZrides 1172
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 04/10/2026encountered on my journey today ...don't think it's a grass snake and it's casting a shadow so it must be quite chunky #Snake #Nathair #Wąż #Poland #Polska 050
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 04/10/2026W5W bulb put in the new lamp bit of an 'Heath Robinson' on the 'splicing' & a good job I'm not colour blind Polish govt. have reduced the price of petrol in all petrol stations, even the Russian owned ones ...yep! 🤔, & it's a sunny day, so time to fill the tank & have a ramble #MotoSky #HeadLamp 2141
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 03/10/2026She made herself a feather bed... not quite sure where the feathers came from! #Cats #Caturday 0130
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 03/10/2026In case anybody wonders why Polish drivers are so bad... here's a Motorcycle Riding Instructor from here: kobra.szczecin.pl video from 23/09/26, ripped from this you tube channel, latest video no. 1515: www.youtube.com/@STOPCHAM/vi... #MotoSky #Poland #Polska #MotorcycleInstructor #KobraSzczecin 182

JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 02/10/2026The new headlamp gets significantly brighter when I rev the engine I suppose this means the alternator/stator is working but does it highlight any other problem? #MotoSky #Headlamp 371
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 01/10/2026New headlamp on haven't put the W5W bulb in, I need to find a 1 to 2 connector as it shares the supply with the main bulb Old one one in the collage, held on with a very odd bracket that also holds my indicators in place The new one is a revelation, I can now ride at night! #MotoSky #HeadLamp 1132
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Thanks Jeff I've found some very useful rubber stuff that came with a pedal bike What is actually more frustrating is the two sizes of Allen key I have to use on the bracket! 240
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 01/10/2026#MotoSky Advice please!! I've been sent the wrong size mount for the headlamp, it is far too big Would it work to pack it with thick rubber? ( @jeffodysseus01.bsky.social ) #MotoSky #HeadLamp #HeadLight 580
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Late September sun... still shorts weather here, even though the neighbours think I'm insane #BornInTheNorth #ZaHartowany 060
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 29/09/2026New lamp and mounts arrived ...and of course they came without bolts to attach the lamp to the mounts! Sadly, no time to fit it today ...grass to cut, ...me arse! (H4 bulb this time with a proper connector!) #MotoSky #HeadLamp #NewHeadLamp 0171
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Sweet potato, carrot, chickpea, onion, garlic and coriander soup for tea! 340
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 27/09/2026So many friendly people flashing & waving at me today ...or so I thought [Ps: It is illegal to ride/drive without lights during the daytime in Poland] #MotoSky #HeadLight 2291
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 27/09/2026An absolutely gorgeous little Italianate chapel today The chapel of Święty Idzi z Saint-Gilles / St. Giles the Hermit Sadly I missed the wooden church dedicated to him from 1652 in the nearby town #Chapels #Shrines #Kapliczki #Kaplice #MotoSky #JMZrides /1 1130
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 27/09/2026How long do you wait? Never seen a queue like this at a rural level crossing People already turning round when I got there I waited a while then spoke to the old fella in the red car at the front ...15 minutes he'd been waiting! I was off... #MotoSky #LevelCrossings #Poland #Polska 251
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I was wrong... apparently this new road, once a track, will be a relief road for the village & Cemetery road / Cmentarna during Wszystkich Świętych / All Saints' Day & Zaduszki / All Souls' Day to avoid the normal traffic chaos There will be a one-way system in operation ...good luck with that! 020
JMZ @jmzed.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Oi Poland... Why the absolute f*ck do I have to buy personal accident insurance for my children at high school / secondary school? Have you never heard of Public Liability Insurance? Utter bonkers this country #Poland #Polska #School #Insurance 240
