      that’s. shambles of a road. People see the flyers and think they are coming to this great escape but scotland has one route that’s it. I used to do that annually with my mates up until 2013 and after the motorhome mayhem started we don’t bother. Basically my back door and wouldn’t waste the fuel

    Love the Picos, great to see some of the roads on your vid that I know. Done Spain each year for 20 odd years This year will be the Pyrenees, only because the ladies want to fly out for a holiday by the beach, so we will ride out to meet them. But, leaving the GS at home this year, trying it on CRF300's. If Itchy Boots can do it.....! Keeping fingers crossed!

    This was a great video. My wife and I rode in the Potes area for a few days this spring. I recognise the pass where you rode up to a viewing area. We rode down that pass in the evening no traffic. My wife was squeezing her legs so tightly on my hips when she got off at the hostel in Potes she was twitching N 621 is one fine road. We rode there with friends earlier in the trip and it was a little foggy. Awesome ride! Thanks for sharing.

      Happened to me here in Wales ... at a Gulf station where Premium is a big orange label with a little sliver of green or black. I was knackered from a day's riding - stopped at a premium petrol pump, but it was out of order. Went around to another available pump and saw orange. Dawned on me after 5 litres! After 5 hours of waiting and getting 'saved' (£250 later) ... I was on my way again. Was an expensive day.

  • @overlandlmg3913

    I feel for Pete and the diesel. I once filled my GSA1200 from completely empty to absolutely full up with diesel (circa 34 liters) and only noticed when the fuel nozzle clicked at the end. As long as Pete didnt start it, it can be drained out and then filled up with petrol to dilute the remanents. Felt like a complete muppet. I hope you go along to Funte De at the end of the road from Potes. We stopped in the hotel at the end of the road with the cable car up to the cafe on the top of the mountain.
