Love the Pyrenees. Col D'Aubisque was my first mountain pass. The Tourmalet was closed so we ended up doing Aubisque twice in the same day..... on a push bike. 😂 Thank goodness I have GS1250 now

Thanks guys, nice to see you back. This was the trip I was planning but had to cancel due to health issues, however after watching this it’s made me even more determined to get out there. Cheers Richard

[@PaulJohnson257]

[@chema1546]

Ok 👍👌

[@peterowberry4390]

Another great film, your tours always look so much better than mine!

[@foggsontour-3inat4]

Great scenery. We didn’t get deep into the Pyrenees when we went into Spain. Now we know what we missed. Thanks for using my music again guys 🙏

[@travelsonmymotorbike]

Thank you! 😀👍

2023 trip probably starting next month. Will you be uploading the editors cuts first to wet the appetite or film first and then the editors cuts? I'd prefer the latter - just saying. 😁

[@travelsonmymotorbike]

I'm thinking big movie first then the episodes. You could always wait for the episodes before watching the movie 😀👍🏍

[@glasseyalley]

Trying to put some kind of a plan together for this years trip to France, taking in a few days in the Pyrenees. I was looking for somewhere decent to stay on the French side but it seems like you've found it for me.

[@travelsonmymotorbike]

Glad to have been of service 😀👍🏻🏍️

Does Scottish skin normally get sufficient sun exposure in a season to effect a "tan"?

[@justmejohn773]

Usually a tar-tan!

[@haycreek]

Yeah, I was definitely asking for that. Here in western Minnesota, USA 46.61 deg N , once the snow melts away and multiple winter clothing layers are reduced beyond the final (tentative) one of long (thermal) underwear, it's common to expose pale hide to the intense spring sun and begin laying on a more-or- less "full body" not just (being a farmer myself) a "redneck" or "farmer tan" limited to the neck, nose, ears and forearms. California surf culture thing migrated inland. Some are actually embarrassed appearing publicly at a beach while still in pale mode.
