You where blessed but the gods with good weather and thanks again for posting the roads and pics..sure others appreciated it as much as me..

Trout ain't half bad either..

Total garages are offering fuel especially petrol very cheap compared to supermarkets now...the prices are all over the place compared to years of stability...world's gone frigging bananas...even food is expensive now in france...the french must really be struggling we where out end of Sept 2022... ...

In sorted take the right track out of village eastwards...rather than the tarmac down to main road ...Great pics of the best and really only trail in the picos...

The mitas e13 is the replacement from mitas for the xt644....just as good and long lasting....just 2x price now..

Thanks very much for a excellent ride report and pictures of food and roads to die for...cantabria and Galicia is a special place not often visited ...top Trump award.

Yes Mate, with my e bike....opens up a whole new world for me on chemin compared to the heavy xt660z which is just for touring a pyrenees gravel stuff...

On the plus side fuel is dropping ..got diesel at 1.55 euro a ltr today at a total garage near Mortain.in north...

The best roads in france are d roads followed by c roads ...always adventure to be had and things till discover...no speed cameras either...

Viv la france...

operation Brock finishes when all the kids etc ahve returned to school...its officical from the kent authority...

Okay ...I've got a ulefone armour 14 with broken screen and a friend has a blackview bv6300....both bought from ebay uk with uk sellers The warrenty is useless as they don't reply to messages and are in fact china based just a house fronting as uk seller.. I don't have a answer to what to buy rugged...
