Currently on the N2 now, about 2/3rds of the way southbound. It wasn’t in our plan (such as it was) until we spoke to a biker Bod on the ferry who was planning to ride it.
1. A lot of it is not very well signposted. The road disappears a few times being absorbed into a greater road, or turns into some very minor roads. I’ve given up on being slavish to the actual road and have taken the more obvious way on other roads a few times already.
2. There are some very tedious stretches mainly in or near the bigger towns.
3. Equally though there are some just fantastic stretches of endless twisty mountain roads. The corners just keep on coming and coming. There’s more fun bits than tedious bits so far.
4. On the whole its slow going. It’s going to take us 5 shortish days north to south (10am ish to 4pm ish with at least three 30-60 minute stops. I ain’t trying to go fast at all though.
For a hotel with a difference about an hour from the north end (in Spain) try the “rock star hotel. Rooms include a garage for your bike. We had the Freddie Mercury room.
