Campina Grande Travel Forum

Hello.
I am a swedish man that have found my love in Campina Grande.I am mooving there in the fall to settle down and to marry her.In Sweden i had a fairly big bike ( Suzuki Intruder 1400 cc ) and i´m going to buy something similar to that.But when i have been visiting C.G. i have noticed that there are only " small " bikes there.150 cc - 250 cc.This is not satisfactory for me so if there are someone that can tip me where to buy a bigger bike ,i would apreciate it a lot.Then i would allso apreciate any other good and useful tips for my mooval there.

I believe you can find more motorcicle options if you look it in Recife/PE (200km from Campina Grande).

Cheers,
Henry.

Thank You Henrysp.
I was thinking on that option.But can You answer this question aswell? Are there a lot of big cycles like Harley Davidsons for sale anywhere? During My last stay there I saw only one in 5 weeks and I was visiting cities like Campina Grande,Joao Pessoa and Natal.

Hur står det till?

"Are there a lot of big cycles like Harley Davidsons for sale anywhere?"

-It's more likely you find big motorcicles in big cities of South and Southeast Brazil (São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Belo Horizonte, Curitiba and Porto Alegre).
But even here (São Paulo) it's not commom find Harley Davidson brand on streets...Honda, Suzuki and Yamaha are more commom to find at streets.

Ha det så bra!
Henry.

Hej Henry.

Jo tack. Jag mår bra,och hur mår du då? Trevligt att få kontakt med en SVENSK i Brasilien.Du bor tydligen i Sao Paolo,eller?Permanent eller tillfälligt?Det vore trevligt att lära känna dig bättre.Min e-mail är:urmaslepp@hotmail.com.Hör gärna av dig.Just nu är min fästmö på besök hos mig i Karlstad .Hon har varit här i 3 veckor och om en vecka återvänder hon hem till Campina Grande.Därefter jobbar jag några månader och flyttar sedan för gott till C.G.Jag är 56 år och tycker att "nu får det räcka" med arbete.Men jag har några affärsideer som jag skall testa där.
I morgon åker Deborah och jag till Tallinn i Estland för ett kort besök.
Ha det!

P.S.
Att jag inte svarat tidigare beror på att vi har varit på resande fot i Sverige de senaste veckorna och inte haft dator med oss.
D.S.

Hej Urmas,

Jag är inte swedish...mig är brazilian. Jag kan skriva och läsa någon grundläggande swedish, därför att jag har en vän från Sverige som bor här i São Paulo, och jag har lärt något.

Hopp I skriver alla korrekt...

Cheers,
Henry.

Hello Henry.
Ok.I will write to You in english instead,but if You want I can do it in swedish aswell.I think it is fantastic that You can so much swedish cause it must be very strange for a brazilian to speak this idiom.Let´s keep in touch cause I´m as You allready know mooving to Campina Grande in te end of october or in the beginning of november.
Hope to hear from You soon.

No idea about the motorbikes, but I lived in CG for a year as a teenager (exchange student) and loved it. I'll be heading back in the next 6-12 months... You'll have a great time.

Have you joined orkut yet? If not, just pop me an e-mail at pms78@ihug.com.au and I will send you an invitation. It's a great way to make and maintain great friendships with Brazilians.

Boa sorte!
Pauline
