Asturias

Too true. The only improvement on that route would be to stay at the fantastic camping Lago de Somiedo :)

As well as the camp ground, where you have to take your kit into the field on wheelbarrows, there are traditional thatched huts used for cabins.

The walk into the mountains from the camping is fantastic!

And as for the roads ... thanks for bringing back memories - but I ride over the pass you have posted not able to see my hand in front of me as the clouds were so thick - in July FFS!

Looking forward to this; make sure you have fresh rubber on Arsey; 1700 out of my rear and it was fucked; and you have 50 hp more pushing you along.:beerjug:
 
Im off on Monday night and will be in Bilbao on Wednesday lunchtime then a week in the Asturias. I shall keep an eye out for you Arsey.

Ride safe.
 
Just back. Cudillero was excellent, bar Casa Julio did a great fish dinner.

Love Cudillero. We’ll be there one night for sure even if it’s just to go to El Ramon for some cider before dinner !
 
If you were in a group of 6 or 7 I think you may have passed us on the south side of the Paso Santa Gloria on the N621- we were 2 up on an 1190 adventure
 
Settled into our hotel in Las Arenas after a bumpy passage down to Bilbao. The ride from the ferry to the hotel made it all worth while. Looking forward to a bit of exploring tomorrow.
