Spain Calling

Hi all,

I live way down in Southern Spain and have joined you guys to keep up with whats going on back home.

I probably wont be making any rideouts or meetings any time soon but if any of you lot are heading towards Jerez let me know.

Planned trips this year are across to the Farro Rally in Portugal in July and The Estoril GP in September.

I ride an 06 FZ1 and old KTM620 for playing “off piste”

Cheers

Gnasher

welcome newbie, how goes it in spian… how long you been there

Hey Gnasher, welcome to LB! We already have a couple of members from southern spain (you lucky bunch!), specifically Kao5. What do you ride? Please, share some photos with us in the Pictures & Videos forum!

Gnasher, hello amd welcome to the site… Keep checking in and hopefully you wont miss home too much… Where abouts in Southern Spain are you?

Hi all and thanks for the welcomes,

I live about 30 km west of Ronda in malaga province, a small mountain town called Cortes de la Frontera, about an hour from Jerez or Gibralter on my fizzy.

Moved here about 6 years ago with my wife, 2 daughters and my Greyhound who spent his youth running round in circles in Wimbledon.

Sold my Gixxer750 when we moved here, bought a KTM because theres so many great mountain tracks, the ramblers hav’nt highjacked the countryside and I had limited riding time as we owned a tapas bar.

sold the bar last year and bought my FZ1.

Love Spain for the sun, relaxed lifestyle, lack of bull**** from cops, cameras etc. every time I put my lid on.

Miss England loads, cause I’m English…

thats probably put you to sleep so cheers for now and look forward to to getting to know you all

Hello mate and welcome aboard…

or visa versa !!

Hola dude

hola, que tal?

Welcome Gnasher, you miss England, of course, but not the weather I hope !!

Welcome to LB.

Hola coma estas, yo tengo familia en Torrevieja.

Hello and welcome

Hey Gnasher, I’m heading out to Spain at the beginning of next month. Landing in Santander, then going down to Malaga and across to Barcelona over the course of a week.

Maybe I can meet you when I stop off in Malaga for a couple of days.

Anyway…Welcome.

Hi Afro1,

Sounds like a plan mate.

I was about to reply to your post about your trip but you beat me to it!

If your still planning to head down the west coast, towards Cadiz, Jerez and Tarifa then at some point, Jerez would probably be good, it’d be great to meet up and maybe gate crash your trip for a day

let me know your route and dates etc. and we could maybe put something together.

It looks like you’ve had a fair bit of advice already regarding road conditions plod etc. but I will try and answer any questions you may still have, just ask away.

Keep in touch mate, the weathers turning hot and I can feel an atlantic coast blast coming on

Cheers

Gnasher

Thanks mate…I’ll PM you my route.
