Fantastic Pictures, I certainly recognise Gibraltar as I lived there for just over 3 years.

I have just come back from the Pyrenees and The Lot region of France. I will post me photo's and trip when I get my camera back from the place I left it in France.

Never be fool and underestimate the rider based on the bike. It may be just a dullville, but I have seen the guy riding it kick serious GSXR/CBR/ZXR/YZF ass on a transalp with all-terrain tires in the Dolomites. ;)

It sure was beautiful there. But it was loooong. First time for me to do almost 8000km in one trip; I usually stay around 4k to 5k.

Absolutely great! :hello1: :hello1: :hello1: :hello1:

Well thank you very much :scratch: Now you've made me want to leave my wife and kids, jump on the bike and disappear on the horizon ...

Still have good memories on my Pyrinee trip a few years ago .... too long ago ...

Think I rode past the same bridge in '04? Great pics, but don't tell too many people about biking in the Picos, or the secret will die! :wink: :wink: Went on my VFR, on an XR650 en route to Africa and also on an old Dommie. Brilliant.
