    Number one piece of advice :), if it is 2 for 1 on pints of Kronenburg 1664 on the ferry :party:, don't drink double the amount o_O, the chemical hangover will be with you the whole of the following day! :dizzy:

    We did the Santander to Jaca part last year after a first night in Santander, it is a nice ride down there & Jaca is a lovely little town. After a night in Jaca we went on to Andorra where we based ourselves Tue to Thu before heading to Pamplona for Friday night, took a few photos on the way, see below.

    Agree completely BB, the N260 is one cracker of a road, with great variety of terrain. Good road surface.

    Yep an awesome road. In fact that area all the way across to Barcelona in Spain and the foot hills in France are also really good.

    I would like to be able to quote more of the road numbers etc, but to be honest I was following & enjoying the catching up after being tagged far too much to take notice of such things! ;)
    But to be fair you don't have to look far for a decent road down there, it's just some were busier than others, our lead rider has been several times so already knew some of the best. :cool:

    I thought that restraining order banned you from leaving the country! On the bright side it’s nearly a year away, plenty of time for them to split up!

    Silly boy, that's what happens when you sit on the fence. Had you booked, you would have had a great excuse not to go to the wedding. :rolleyes:
