    With the old bloke’s navigational skills I’d be very worried in the bedroom!

    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.

    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.

    I’m up for it :cool:

    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 :eek:;)
