Adding another 265 miles today of mostly coastal roads:



Start heading north tomorrow. Roads through Andalusia and the Sierra Nevada have been nothing short of spectacular. Better than the Pyrenees for sure! Full report to follow when we get back.

And yes, there was snow and sheet ice at the top of the A-337. But what a spectacular ride!
Awesome, I was down that way (Estepona, 50 mins from Malaga) for a works xmas do last weekend, 18 degrees and sunny - was thinking how I need to do a week down there in autumn/spring one year.

I find these conversions of state of the art sports bikes quite irritating. Complete waste.

I take it you all know it's a computer rendering (or am I missing the whoosh parrot)?

There's several things wrong including the back to front writing on the front tyre: enotsegdirB - like I pointed out above but guess was missed.

Akys. He bought another R1-M tank second-hand (they're £1500 new) then bought another silver tank to fit in place of this buckled one.

I('m getting the bent and buckled one too use for track, prevention is better that cure.
