Taking return ferry Portsmouth - Santander, sailing at 11.15 on the 21st, and 15.15 on the 29th.
Intend to travel West to East thru mainly the French side, taking in the best passes. Then to Carcassonne and down to the Med, before returning Westwards thru Spain, doing more of the Cols., before finishing with the Picos de Europa.
Should say that I'm taking the Blackbird, so no intentional offroading!!! Took the GS down thru E France to the Jura last Sept, and thoroughly enjoyed it. It's very practical for touring, but lacks the oomph when there's a decent road.
Staying at modest hotels, and B&Bs. Have read all the ride reports here for routes to take and accommodation referrals, but would be grateful to receive more tips on places to stay if you have them.
So if anyone would like to join me, you would be most welcome, with the usual caveat that you don't snore or f@rt (which rules out most tossers )
