Looking for info on trails in Spain and Portugal

[MiGSel]

Hi,
I'm considering a trip with a few mates in Spain / Portugal on GS-able trails.
So now I'm looking for info, ideally some gps tracks for such a trip.
But any info is most welcome
Cheers,
Michel

Thanks for those routes Markie

Has anyone ridden them recently? Been reading up and there seems to be an opinion forming that a 650 sized bike would be the sensible option and anything bigger would / could be a struggle.
I ride off road fairly often but am no riding god, don't fancy struggling on my 990 if the routes are very technical or snotty

you're welcome.

Last time I rode the top 1/2 - 1/3 [1] was Sept 2011 me on a KTM 950 SE mate on a GS800 which were fine. Yeah a lighter/smaller bike would have been good on some sections but a 990 Adv should be fine for 90-95% of it, the other 5-10% will be do-able but harder work.

[1] mate had a bit of a bang when he fell of so we bailed early
