A Fistful of €uros

2019 sees the Wild Hogs, Woody and Grizzly, embark on another marathon tour. After the cold snowy mountains of Norway in the north, they now take on the hot dusty plains in the south, touring the Iberian peninsula. They’ll come together to begin their journey in Portsmouth, sailing to Bilbao, before spending around 30 days trekking through Spain, Portugal and into the Pyrenees of Andorra and France, before returning to Bilbao and Portsmouth. It's an epic journey totalling some 4250 road miles.

Day 14

2 weeks since Sanch left home.

Have stopped at McDs for brekkie. We were never going to pay for the hotel brekkie, so got on the road, hoping to stay ahead of the rain.

Leaving the city on a Monday is more fraught than arriving on Sunday, for sure. Problem lies in us sticking with the speed limits. What silly buggers we are. As mentioned before, none of the Portuguese do. I think the issue here is that there is no enforcement. No cameras, no patrols, nowt! No wonder then they speed with impunity.

Can't wait to get back into Spain to be honest.
