Santander - Malaga on a 1976 Bultaco Matador MK 9

Bakes.

What a really gripping read.

Now that's what I call an adventure.

Your 'quirky' style (no offence meant) is different and keeps the interest level high.

The 'snapshot' photography was good.

Hope that you are now home safely.
 
OMG thats "Oh my God" to the rest of you that don't have a text idear.

This from ADVrider, I posted on there because theres a big Bultaco following in parts.


This is a hilarious RR and deserves to be read widely. The unsuitable classic motorcycle, the second hand Chinese food, the photography. Other people in the room where I was reading it were asking what was so funny. Typos, sincerity, excitement and true adventure, and road food pictures, that's what.






Watch out Traveling Sam, Spanish Steve is moucho :D

An oasis of a thread in a vast desert of mediocrity. :)
 
I have been very privalaged in the past 2 days to have seen REAL Spain, as the Spanish say " SPAIN, SPAIN SPAIN " I just wish I had time to write my finds.

We enjoy life in all our own small ways, Spain makes me, cry and sit and lay down, things I don't do in the real World.

Its been raining hard today, and I walked walked and walked.

VIVA MIJAS

It's magical when a place/a people can have that affect on you :)

Whilst the grass is always greener and nothing is perfect there is defo something about the Spanish attitude to life and life's priorities that is just so right and something we seem to have lost in this over populated, over busy island of ours..........
