2 Wheel Trip

A Passion for Motorcycle Trips

Spain - Portugal 2006

Windy, that is the first thing I could say about this trip. Perfectly maintained roads, you'd be hard-pressed to find a pothole. Which leads to the 2nd observation, toll can add up. Unlike other Western European destinations, you have to cover a lot of distance between cities here.
Porto might have (subjectively) the best seafood in the world. Salamanca is a must-see, so is Granada. And Madrid while worth the visit, is a place to park the bikes, and take a cab. By mistake we ended up in Carmona which is striking small town with a Moorish Castle in the middle of nowhere.
