Basic triangle roads round Picos N625, LE244/LE2703, AS114 are all fantastic. LE333\331 Bonar 👍 PS Brilliant riding I’m jealous only as I know how great it is there.

Nearly over cooked it into a tight thighting lefthander after a straight bit about 0:55 below it tightened me. Ah but, all part of the joy of unknown roads. youtu.be/g2aqi6P4IhwFuel is ok Potes and at Riano.
