Just thought I'd re-post the details as this thread is getting full of
frivolous shit.

 

I did think this was funny Andy, never happened before on this forum

 

Well said Andy

 

I'd be relieved!

Mostly posted by a certain satnav owner!

 

Suck Up!

 

Have booked the Savoy in Jaca for me and Steve @Wessa . That's us all sorted now.

 

I've put a route on the sat nav group,San Felices to Broto.
It might interest you,or it might not

 

Thanks Tim.

You were showing me some pictures at the NEC Bike Show that you’d taken whilst in Northern Spain which looked a bit like Monument Valley ?USA, where did you take the photos Tim.

 

Is this a route youve done? If so in reality how long did it take?

 

They were taken at way marker 16 on the route.

Yes I've done that route.It depends how long you stop for but about 6 hours if I remember correctly.

 

Part of that route could be done as a day out from Jaca if folk fancied it ?

 

Was thinking the same Andy

 

Yep! sounds about right,but the food was superb

 

I've just been tipped off about a road in Spain(ok I nicked it off another forum)
It's the L-511 Col de Boixols. It looks good on Google street view.
It might work in with your La Seu d'Urgell.

 

Thanks for posting @roadrider , had a quicl look at that and I agree it does look like a candidate for a ride out from La Seu d'Urgell.

 

Got the maps!
The only proper way to plan a rideout

 

I think I will give that a miss.....

 

I’m up for it

It’s probably safer than that bridge some of us went on in Germany, especially when @BonnieCat started rocking the bridge whilst we were halfway across
