The N-260 Club Headquarters
|
We are all very proud of our achievement for having
safely traversed nearly 3,200km through some of the more challenging roads in
Spain and western/southern France over the last two weeks.
There were many highlights – like the road to Parador de
Fuente near Potes, following the beautiful Cord Cantabrica, the stunning
scenery around Uncastillo, the sensational roads in the Pyrenees, the arresting
red rocks at Las Pe’nas de Riglos, the
gorgeous lake at Puigcerda, John’s surprise visit to Sant Marti d’Empúries, the
charming Cadaques on the beach, the Dali museum in Figueres, the exquisite
Costa Brava, all of the roads between Carcassonne and Anduze, the Gorge du Tarn
and of course Puy Mary. And Tim and
Sylvie’s very kind hospitality in Anduze was very much appreciated.
However there were two main highlights for me . . .
first, the friendship and camaraderie that stems from undertaking such an
adventure. Thanks everyone for sharing
such a wonderful ride and for your friendship and generosity. Second, I am especially proud that we can now
call ourselves official members of the N-260 Club having ridden the road from
Jaca to the French border on the Costa Brava!
