Just spent 3 days riding in the Pyrenees..!

More detail when I get home this afternoon but it was awesome, both the riding and the people. Mountain passes, fiestas, food, riding the clouds..and push starting a Norge every day. The scenery is special, and we even brewed up at altitude.

As for the pushing, well I am overweight and needed the exercise. And my friends starter solenoid was cactus. For variety in the flatlands of France we did a towed start .

Started the fun at the Pass de la Casa and finished with Col du Siomport, and there were a few good ones in between. Climbed enough that 35 degrees Celsius became 11 ....

Bagpipes and blunderbusses. Drinks to knock her socks off. Great food. Lovely people so helpful everywhere.
