Plascencia
We have waited out the rainy weather for 3 days in Leon. We are also struggling with trying to do too many things. We had planned this trip with Orvar and Trevor. We had initially thought we could ride south to Tarifa to meet our good friends there, but after riding mostly on the highway all day from Leon to Plasencia we had a change of heart.… Read the rest

Leon
The weather forecast is rather wet and so we have decided to hunker down in Leon. We got a great 3 bedroom apartment 200 m from the Cathedral. This gives us time for some catching up on posts. Orvar needs a new sprocket and chain and so we dropped off his bike today.… Read the rest

Picos de Europa

The plan is for us to rest up and then the four of us will head back to Leon thru the Picos de Europa region.… Read the rest

The first stop was breakfast at the bottom of the hill and the second was the one hour espresso top up.… Read the rest

Bilbao and Burgos
We made good time and arrived in Bilbao before our 2 pm check in and so we headed downtown to see if we could connect with our friends that flew in from Athens this morning. We first met Petros on the Faroe Islands in 2015 and then again in 2016 when we made it to Greece.… Read the rest

Back in the Schengen
We had a great experience with Carrie at Motorcycle Express! The bikes were very well secured with way too many tie down straps, but each one was completely padded. The bikes arrived at Cargo city less than an hour from touchdown at Charle de Gaulle Airport.… Read the rest

A little sightseeing while we wait.
We had a couple of days to explore while waiting for the bike to arrive. The first day the weather was stellar sunny but not too hot. We got a bolt into the city and started our day at the Arc de Triomphe and then we strolled down the Champs Elysee.… Read the rest
