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 30

The day started bright and sunny and we could see the surrounding mountains in all their glory for the first time.

A couple of miles up the road was our first fuel stop of the day. Back on the road, we rode through Lourdes and I was praying that the good Lord would help Sanch find a way to go faster through the twisty stuff, after I waited 3 minutes for him earlier, with just 9 miles covered. 🤣 Subsequent discussion showed Tomtom had steered him wrong somehow.

Stopped for a coffee and Sanch's own fuel stop. Cafe au lait without the lait! So we got a tiny cup with chantilly cream on top. What a joke.
