Returned from the Pyrenees!

Morning Fellow CT Riders,
Just got back from my First Trip on my CT and what a dream it was to be comfortable with plenty of punch for the mountains. After 10 Years of touring on my VFR1200F it was time to move on and get something more comfortable as i am 6ft 3in and the Cramp was getting too much!
We did the Picos last year and loved it so we tried the Pyrenees and can honestly say these roads are the best in Europe, purely on the Road Surface Quality and the fact there is hardly any traffic.
This year we tried the CaliMoto app which was 100% worth every single penny as i planned all the routes and hotels before we departed and was so easy to use when on the road.
IF you haven't been to the Pyrenees then you must put it on the bucket list!
Safe Riding Everyone

Looks like a cracking trip - I only ever see the Pyrenees from the air as I fly over aboard EasyJet to and from La Manga - must do it on the CT!

I knew it was a capable bike, but I didn't know it could fly too!
