- Join an adventurous motorcycle road trip to the Spanish mountain range Picos de Europa - the summits of Europe.

Beautiful!! I rode extensively from Santander to Noia in Galicia zigzagging between the coast and the interior for 3 months. I rode from London to Plymouth then boat. I was on a Piaggio X9 250 in 2003. I loved it so much I moved to Spain a year later and been here since.
Spain looks ideal for biking all year round. Here in the UK it's not great biking weather, so we enjoy watching your European tour with relish.
Thanks to Lea for this wonderful mountain ride, the scenery was astounding.
Thank you for joining!

Just lovely Lea. Such beautiful landscapes of forest and rock in this region of Spain. Sometimes the hardest but best decision is to turn back. Your maturity and vast experience as a motorcycle adventurer showed. It was a good lesson for us all.

Hi! I just had to watch this video again because we visited Picos de Europa yesterday and walked along the beautiful Ruta del Cares. We were surprised by how few people there were, having expected hoards of tourisits. It was cloudy and rain had been forecast, but it turned out to be mostly rain-free afterall. A spectacular day out.- hope to retun some day on my Honda.
Thanks Lea. Nice roads. Fantastic natur. exept for the ......FOG. Keep on riding.
You had me after the first 5 seconds!!! LOVE This!!! Thank YOU!!! 💥💯💥
It’s really a nice area!
Your Destination Home series is just fantastic Lea. Your successive journeys and chronicles keep hitting new high-water marks. Thank you for this journey, and all the previous ones, and the wonderful video and commentary. Your book was also great.
Thank you so much! I am super happy that you as well enjoyed the book. It’s still my “baby”. 😂
Lo interesante de picos no se ve por carretera (afortunadamente). Es un macizo espectacular. Buena ruta y mucha salud !!

Halo Lea, sehr schönes Video! Die Picos de Europa sind auch auf meiner Todo -Liste.
Thank you. My son and I did the Sotres trail on our GS's this last September - we were lucky with the weather and it is stunning - along with the rest of the Picos....
I hope I can do it completely next time I visit - I saw pictures and it looks spectacular. But I am as well happy I saved it for another time - you might see in the next episode how lovely riding in the fog is 😂😉
From Tuesday afternoon on i expected a warm up tab for the new episode. That alone put me in a state of anticipation and the episode was 👍😍😊! Great channel you have!
I forgot it this time! Only realized two minutes before the episode went live! Hope I will be better next week 😂
Great that you joined anyways!
nicely done. Narration , video, info. Danke! ;)
3:30 ..wao... Really 🏁✔️ sounds good 👍
Yet another beautiful video Lea. The Picos has always been a very special place to me, particularly having climbed there many years ago. I was there on my Himalayan in October last year, a fantastic trip. Thanks again.
That sounds awesome! Can only imagine how nice it would be to go climbing there!
Stunning video as always Lea, and fun twisties. Glad you both made it through the Picos safely. Thanks for the uplifting Thursday on a cold and damp day in Toronto. Stay safe. Cheers, Dan ✌️🏍🇨🇦
Thank you for joining again! Wish I could have brought you a bit more sunshine though with this video…
رائع ما تفعلينه ( ليا) ثابري مشوارك وفقك الله.🌷🌷🌷

Brilliant vid thanks
Thank you for joining again!
My prof, the late Mr Maass, used to say "boring limestone", skipped this beautifull Picos de Europa landscape and showed us the fossil rich adjoining Barrios de Luna area instead. Thanks for the magic footage!
Barrios de Luna look pretty good though too! 😍
Thanks for riding along against the advice of your prof 😂😂😂
Very beautiful video! Best!
Thank you! 🤗
Another great ride as always, even if the fog was a problem! I'm glad your drone flew okay, because they don't like fog very much!!
