    So after planning this trip in previous years it should now happen! I'll meet @Wessa and @andypandy on September 10th in Jaca, northern Spain, having ridden down there in two days . We'll then tour for a week before I'm setting off for home again. Hotels are booked, I'm excited about this trip!

    Me and @andyc1 did the whole of the N260 a few years ago, a lot of fantastic twisty bits, I'm sure you guys will have fun

    Ardeche is gorgeous! You'll enjoy yourself, I'm sure! Make sure you see the "Pont d'arc".

    I can't decide which I like best, the Pyrenees or Picos. Both were stunning, biking heaven! Have a good one lads, I'm a little envious :cool:

    You'll find most places in Spain are biker friendly mate. Santander-Rosas round trip sounds great!

    Looking great! I love my Kriega packs, should have got them years ago. As for accomodation, the last two European tours I did (France, Switserland, Italy, Luxembourg) I never had any problems getting places to stay with the bike. And all last minute, save one.
