I had just got out of the army, aged about 22, bought a BMW 75/6 from my brother, who had to teach me how to ride it. Six months later I had it shipped to New York and rode it, with my girlfriend Sue on the back across to Denver and the Rockies. America is amazing for scenery and national parks. Then ever west to Death Valley, Grand Canyon, Zion, and others to California. South then Mexico and the Baja then back up to California where I sold the bike after seven months in the States. I was now broke but firmly bitten by the travel bug. Romance, adventure and bike travel, a winning combination ..read more

Two places that we keep going back to, the bufones are a bit weather and tide dependent but always worth a visit, the mining area is worth a full explore and also look out for the canals feeding into it. https://www.google.com/maps/place/Las+M ... ?entry=ttu Las Medulas looks fantastic. It is close to my tentative way from Santiago de Compostela to Burgios. I will add this place/area Thanks Statistics: Posted by ErikGustav2 — Wed May 01, 2024 7:12 pm ..read more

All of the Picos area is a really good ride so I don't think you'll go wrong whichever route you take. I'd say check out the town of Llanes to the north and the bigger town of Gijon also to the north, which are both on the coast but surprisingly close to the Picos Mountains, if you want a couple of days of rest and relaxation. Also, check out a route south of Riano down to the town of Guardo. We stumbled across that area by accident and it was an awesome ride.
