    Living in the south of France now 27years, still riding Harley springer at 78,you pair are doing what I have done great to see what you are up to, a tip for a bee sting of which I have had a few, do carry sugar lumps soon as you are stung wet the sugar and place on the sting,it works! Have a great journey 👍

    Ronda is amazing. For anyone planning to go there, there is a fantastic museum, with pretty much everything in it, with 2€ entry, near the bridge, but the other side of the gorge to the bull ring.
    I had the same view about olive trees the first time I rode from La Linea to Madrid.
    I still haven’t been to Granada, but I need to go. I want to see the palace at Alhambra.
    Deep fried whitebait, boquerones Fritas?
    Awesome video as always guys !

      It really is, I was bit gutted we didn't spend the day there to show much more, but we been there quite a few time and were seeking new stuff. But so much to see there . The old town is magical at night and the restaurants are stunning with the clifftop views. I mean it was good enough for Hemingway . haha

    My Mother Rosemarie and my stepfather went to Europe back in the 80's and she always said one of her favorite countries was Spain. She said it was so clean and the people were friendly and were always well dressed. Nice to see a rural laid back place still exists. Your videos are so well produced. Thank you on a cold rainy night in Idaho. At least it's not snowing!

      haha too man !!!!! but there are big railings ... but if you ever read 'For whom the bell tolls' ... Ronda's clifftop was the inspiration for the scene where they make the people run the gauntlet beating and drive them off the cliff to their deaths . Hemingway stayed there a lot and loved the place, one chapter of Don Quixote was written there too 800 years ago or something crazy, authors love the place. its pretty amazing eating dinner on the terraces looking at the sunset . the hotels there have pools on the roof. ive not done that , but I reckon that would be something.
