Looks like Potes, remember it very well, a terrific area to ride, one that I'll definitely be heading back to at some point in the future. Good stuff and fine photos too.
Yes, one photo is Potes. I actually stayed up the road in Cosgaya at the hotel Del Oso (bear). Its a dead end road up to the cable car at Funte De. Potes can get quite busy as a biker area but is does provide options for eating and drinking. With regard to the coast there are many locations including isolated beaches. I visited Llanes and Ribadesella. Equally turn inland and you are quickly exploring gorges or elevating over 1,500m. I did enjoy the 114 road out of Panes as a fast flowing road. 1.5 hours from Santander makes it easily accessible from the ferry. In summary an easy destination to reach, a huge area with variety to explore, temperate, and plenty of cheap quality accommodation. Oh - and roads made for bikers.
@Cooperman who did you use for travel insurance? I can get loads, cheap, covers Covid related stuff, but not for riding motorcycles over 125cc.
[QUOTE="And this was my morning pal. A 2 month old St Bernard with the run of the hotel del Oso in Cosgaya.[/QUOTE] Stayed there a few times over the years, always a couple of huge St Bernard to greet you at the door, well mainly blocking it , lovely to see they now have a pup. Looks like a great trip, we should have been then in April
Really? My travel insurance has always been the other way round and only if renting a bike, if you own it and have a licence, helmets etc it’s fine
My travel insurance is through Barclays, it will only cover me up to 125cc on a rental bike abroad but I'm fully covered if I ride my own, over 125cc, bike as long as I started my journey on it from the UK, am licensed and insured to ride it and wear a helmet, still covered in these Covid times , surprisingly!
