Re: I can't figure insurance companies out.....
Had an interesting experience with Carole Nash last year come renewal time. Renewal was a smidge under £300. Felt a bit salty so did an online quote with Carole Nash and got a figure of £178...with the same underwriter for the same cover?! Called them up and apparently the online quote was treated a...

Re: Pics of your bike, packed and ready to go.
September 2012, Picos de Europa during a 11-day trip to Spain/Portugal with 7 mates. We also had an unanticipated extra 2-days through France to Calais to get home when Brittany Ferries went on strike 2-days before we were due to depart from Santander! The ride home from Dover instead of Portsmouth ...

Re: HG Uk is safe
Mightly relieved! All my kits HG and I've always been impressed with the design, quality and price tbh. Local store was helpful having developed a relationship with the staff there but alas its been shut for months now due to a fire (and unlikley to open given the current situation?)

Re: Spain; roads to ride?
That's why I tend to ride alone good luck have a great trip cheers Spud ;) I do a fair bit on my own and to be honest I've explored places I wouldn't have done so with my biking mates. I also like to be out early doors and back before the madding public hit the highways whilst my buddies like their...

Re: Spain; roads to ride?
Quote: The road going north out of Matallana de Torio gets quite spectacular through the gorge. Maybe a bit too far from your travel area though.

Spain; roads to ride?
So I decided to take a back seat on this foreign sortee and not spend my whole time pandering to all my mates whims and organising everything for them....again! So I thought I was off to the Picos region but we appear to be staying in Vigo which is on the north east coast of Spain and about 6hrs/300...
