Pyrenees 2014

[jessplop]

At the start of June this year, I headed sarf on my 1986 Kawasaki GT 750, to Portsmouth, to hop the ferry to St. Malo. Thence on through Franch to Espanyol, with a couple of pals (they took their bikes in a van, from Inversnekkie), to experience the Pyrenees. here we found muchos curvas pelogrosas and very little trafficses, which all added up to some jolly fine motorcyclings.:



























I are returning to Espanyol in a couple of weeks, for the Aragon MotoGP, never been to a proper bike race before...

Looks a great trip. Is that camp site just near Figures? looks like the place I've stayed a couple of times.

I need more mountains on the bike, just too busy currently.

The camp site is near Sort, below the Veheila pass/tunnel from Franch (which I missed after taking the wrong exit on the roundabout ), I ended up taking the (other) scenic route...

[Hooli]

Very similar then. Scenic routes are always bestestes.

Nice one. The mighty GT750. I thought you had one o' them Harvey-Islingtons?

Oh, I do, but the clutch has went funny... hoping to attend to it this time home, once the MotoGP at Aragon is watched

The GT is likely to be selled orft (see classifieds ), or else receive some 'treatment'. I did think 'Sushi racer', but that idea is growing into something altogether differenty... I going to try a Beemer K1100 for touringses, larger, fairying, hard luggage and comfort for the 'lay-dee friend'...
