Day 14

Rate this post

Wake-up was at 8:45 am. Around 9 I had breakfast and went to the bank to sort out the ATM issues from yesterday – in van as the bank said they can’t do a thing about it so I should try again. I did as they told and as a result my account was debited with 100 EUR but the ATM did not give me the amount. After spending an hour with them I called my bank and sorted it out with them.

I wasn’t in a good mood and had little cash when I left for Sevilla. The trip was short and the weather was again on my side. 
After lunch in Sevilla I headed towards Marbella through Ronda (routes A-375, A-374 and A-397). The road from Ronda to Marbella was recommended by Hispania Tours in Malaga and it was really worth it. It was a beautiful ride and a great road. My computer showed again 36 degrees so I was happy to take a rest once in Marbella. I found a hotel and the first thing was a well deserved shower before sorting my stuff out before heading towards home tomorrow..

    Day 16

    The alarm sounded at 7.00. I had a good night – not counting that I had to get up two times as a side effect of the beer quantity I consumed – though it was pretty cold. As I left the campsite I rode through perfect roads running between tall tree lines. Then I headed north-east…

    Today I woke up quite late for my standards and had a headache from the drinks I had yesterday. I spent some time to clean and pack my gear. I left Marbella to head North through Madrid. On the way I stopped in Malaga at the airport Starbucks and had a great coffee. I took the motorway to eat up…

    Day 12

    I set off from Cadiz at 10.00 and took coffee on the way out of the city in the shade of trees in a cafe. I took the motorway to Sevilla and had lunch there. I should have stayed there to explore but decided to push it further. It was already 30 degrees in Seville…

    Day 4

    Must have been the large quantity of beer but I could not refrain from getting up for a pee at 4.00 in the morning. At first I did not fancy the idea I was so comfortable in my sleeping bag. But after 20 minutes of hesitation I finally gave up and surrendered to the call…

  • Day 10

    I left the hotel around 9.30 and went straight to Malaga. As they promised the spare parts expert should be in and i was hoping to get lucky with my hand guard. Unfortunately they said the usual: no parts at the moment but they can order it… I didn’t believe it. It only costs 30 EUR…

  • Day 6

    Today I left Valencia around 9.00 and headed inland towards Albacete. The road was wonderful. Small roads alongside riverbeds but I had to pay attention as in some places rocks were blocking part of the road. At one time I crossed a plane stretching for miles where the land was so flat one could not…
