Ferry to Spain and ride to the south

[cbutler]

Anyone on the ferry Portsmouth to Santander 27th August or Santander to Portsmouth 9th September.

I will be going to and from Almería on those respective dates as well. Anyone around?

Will probably see you when boarding. What bike are you on (on the off chance there is another GS on the same boat)

I imagine that there would be quite a number of GS's on the ferry,however I don't have one of these,probably a bit too lively for me at my age,so I bimble round on a 97 Fxdl.

There definately WILL be another GS on the ferry heading for Santander on 27th August. My wife and I will be travelling across. We'll be returning from St-Malo however.

Happy for you to buy me a beer

Security chain

Do any of you take a security chain with you to Spain? I'm tempted to buy one but not sure if even required.

You sure? Even if you are staying somewhere you don't know anything about?

I did 2700 Kms in Andalucia in may and never had a problem anywhere. I stayed in big towns and small places. The bike was parked a few streets away sometimes and was never touched. The guy I was with left his gps on the bike everywhere and again it was never touched. (But it was a crap old Garmin)

Expat. Been here nearly 10 years. Stayed in numerous places throughout Spain and never had a problem anywhere. I have a disc lock but its always remained in the top case. I assume you are staying at a hotel in San Sebastian. Most have secure parking for a small fee.
