Picos de Europa - Day 6

In the last day of the trip I went again to Mirador del Fitu again, this time with great visibility. I rode 655 km to return home with a quick stop at Santiago de Compostela.

Picos de Europa - Day 5

The 5th day of the trip was dedicated to explore the north coast of Spain.

Picos de Europa - Day 4

In the 4th day of the trip I went from Arenas de Cabrales to Fuente De where I tried the Cable Car (fantastic experience) and then I returned to Arenas de Cabrales through an offroad route. When I was planning this trip I had some doubts regarding this route because I didn't have any experience in offroad with R1200 GSA and I couldn't find how difficult it was. Concluding, if I could ride on this offroad route (with pillion), everyone can do it. The photos and videos next presented show how wonderful it was.

Picos de Europa - Day 3

In Day number 3 I travelled from Cangas de Onis to Arenas de Cabrales passing by Covadonga and the lakes. In the afternoon I went to Sotres and return to Arenas de Cabrales where I slept.

Puig Touring Screen for BMW R1200 GS (Adventure) (Ref: 6486H)

After riding just a few km's on my BMW R1200 GS Adventure I realized that the wind protection was not so good as I pretended, specially at speeds above 120 km/h.
After reading some information on the Internet I decided to buy the Puig Touring Screen for BMW R1200 GS (Adventure) (Ref: 6486H) (the smoke version) mainly because of the opinions expressed here: http://advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=967985.

Next I show some photos comparing the original GSA windscreen and the new one.

Sunday Trip - Esposende & Castro de São Lourenço

Presentation

In this blog I pretend to share some of the trips that I will do on my BMW R1200 GS Adventure 2014.

The trips will be shared mainly through photos and maps of the paths taken. All the photos will contain the exact location of the places visited through GPS coordinates. Do not expect big text descriptions... Please contact me if you would like to have the GPS tracks.

Occasionally I will also share some information of equipment and accessories that I will acquire to me and to my motorcycle.

All comments, suggestions or questions are welcome.
