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 16

Back in the saddle. Had to perform a bit of maintenance before we set off. Sanch's dipped beam had blown, so he had to fit a new bulb. Meanwhile, I checked tyre pressures again and the oil. Both ok.

The ride down to Sevilla was very pleasant and not too hot. I had broken out my hyperkewl jacket in any case, so was nicely cool. I also had my fingerless gloves on. The road was smooth, open and sweeping, plus it was practically empty. Maybe because it runs alongside the motorway.

Sevilla was hectic but not too bad. We went wrong once but eventually parked up by the Golden Tower.
