The first day from an epic ride on my BMW R1250 GSA through northern Spain. I had four weeks to complete a "circle" from Alicante up north to follow the Pyrenees, continue to Picos de Europa and the western corner of Spain and south through northern Portugal and back to Alicante.
The transport up north is anything but boring. Endless curves and scenic views from day one. Enjoy the ride!

That's a very good video . Made me want to get out and ride. I've ridden the route from Alicante to Cuenca before (only on the tarmac) and when we stayed overnight in Cuenca we stayed in the new town part of it and missed most of it .

Thanks, Scott_rider! Me and my wife stayed the Parodor Hotel in eastern, expensive but impressive. Cuenca is special and so is Albarracin and the Silent Route where I got in the next video.

I went on a ten day ride in Andalusia and couldn't edit any new video, but back in business with the third part where I actually reach the Pyrenees. Try to be more consistent with following videos. Enjoy the ride,

That part two video is very good as well . I've been to Teruel and the surrounding area are on the bike but didn't know about the silent route. Thanks for posting .

Thanks, Scott_rider. Here is another good tip - I'm thinking of the spectacular and scenic gravelroad.

I'm using the BMW GPS. No problem with the tracks. I did the missing part a couple of days later, starting from Sotres.
