I love Spain. It is gorgeous everywere you go, full of history, incredible architecture, with amazingly friendly people and a stunning cuisine. What a country.

[@user-sw2lv3zp6o]

I have ridden all over Spain, and I can report that I've never stopped anywhere that isn't biker friendly. Great video. How can anyone give it a 'thumbs down'?

[@erikerin2016]

Just got back from a Hispania Tours tour of Morocco and can not speak highly enough about them. I had a bad accident in Morocco (hit by a car) and had to be hospitalized and Hispania went out of their way to help me and make sure my gear and personal bike made it back to Malaga, Spain. I was in the hospital for three weeks and they visited as best they could and called daily as the tour progressed and checked on my status. They are still storing my personal gear and bike as I heal here in Germany now 5 weeks later and have called weekly and chatted as I heal and get better... Again, glad to see them online/KZbin as they are a great group of individuals and have fantastic tours. Great video and nice to see the area I was so excited to ride after returning from Africa. Hopefully when I go to pick up the bike in June. Always quality and insightful, keep up the great work you guys do! Regards - Erik

[@orangelion03]

Good to know they care. We booked their Malaga Tour Center ride for next spring (couldnt beat the price) and cant wait!

[@FlorinNitulescu_1]

No wonder why half of the new motorcycle launches are set up in Spain 🇪🇸 Great roads & scenery!

[@bridgestreetgolf]

Jamie, your camera personnel continue to get little of the credit they/he deserves. Stunning scenery well-presented (directing and editing also deserve kudos). Thumbs up! Cheers, Thomas

[@Zombieshatesfastfood]

At 4:01 You can see a mountain that we in Andalucia calls Indian`s face that is near to Antequera. Glad to see you over here, greetings!

[@jorgecid8322]

Wooh!! mate that's my village!! El Chorro, Alora!! and all those lovely country roads and mountains, from el Torcal to Ronda and Sierra Grazalema..! I miss it too much and my XT600 from '91 amazing bike!! Now it´s London, Uk your country mate. I got a Tiger to discover all this island! :)

[@alberto23]

Jeje. Saludos desde la Perocia.

[@pilotino]

Hello Jamie, inspired by your video we are now in Andalusia, have visited Malaga, El Torcal and Ronda. Now I'm writing this message from Grazalema after we haven eaten some pastry from the same cake shop! Cheers & Thank you :)

[@davidash1008]

Ah Jamie, I just did 4 days riding Andalucia myself with a mate - we hired a Ducati scrambler and a Yamaha XSR700. Blue skies, lovely people, gorgeous little towns and stunning roads through countless national parks. You can't miss. 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@bdcash]

david ash Do you mind me asking who you hired from? Did they come with any luggage?

[@davidash1008]

We used Motoroads and picked bikes up from a car hire place just by Malaga airport. No problems at all, bikes were in decent condition and came with top boxes, which we asked to be removed but kept the racks for our roll bags. Recommended.

[@joseluis-miedoso-4074]

Que bonita que es mi ESPAÑA.......

[@ANDRESMOTTA-dk3kn]

I already can see myself riding my F 800 GS trough these beautiful landscapes.

[@fbmssky]

WHAT a view !!! My favorite part is Ronda City ! Awesome !!!

[@kiwiabroad8390]

Awesome video Jamie. I really like your habit of showing places, people, food and culture more broadly. Bikes are the most sociable vehicles in the world.

[@garthhowe297]

What a beautiful region ... thanks for taking us along!

[@MrPatrizio12]

im italian and i love spain...because a reason ;)

[@RidingTusCanY]

Amazing roads and great scenary, thanks for this new great video!

[@brazilianatuh]

Thanks for the great video. I followed your route and stayed at Perla Blanca for two nights, Stewart is a great host!

[@slaWterCH]

Some insane roads! Wow! And as always, I got hungry again. Great video, thanks a lot!

[@AbidingDuder]

Another stellar moto adventure video, Jamie! May I also add that it was an absolute pleasure to meet you in person on the Saturday of the Handbuilt show in Austin a couple of weeks ago. Sorry I interrupted your conversation with a friend, you're really good with your fans!

[@LookattheBiggerPic]

As always, very nicely done! You and your team are really quite amazing!

[@dirkstuff5820]

I rode a motorcycle through Andalusia for 3 weeks a few years ago. Watching this brought back some great memories!

[@disaar3679]

¡Hermoso, increible, algun dia ire!

[@eugeniosuarezalventosa9372]

Es un placer verte por nuestras carreteras...soy un seguidor tuyo aqui, en España..me encantan todos tus videos...solo una cosita...es Andalucia.....Espero verte pronto por las carreteras de Valencia..un abrazo.

[@SMP-qs2be]

Andalusia es correcto - en inglés. Igual que London en castellano es Londres.

[@alexmcculla2711]

No surprise, Jamie. Mega vid per usual my friend! Keep doing what you're doing; top doo!

[@motoreetto]

Well done dudes!! Remember to call when you'll be back in Italy

[@stormrider8861]

Jamie, thank you for such wonderful videos! The places you get to explore are amazing!

[@johne5854]

Fantastic scenery. Great video.

[@BillyBob-qu3kc]

The food looked delicious, and the roads seem a joy to ride. Great video

[@MrJpb2000]

Another great video Jamie… 👊😎👍 Love the adventures.

[@GNT35]

Nice one!! Thanks for the tour..nice bike

[@tsav6952]

Spectacular scenery, great pick for a location! Enjoyed the ride!

[@orangelion03]

Wow! Thanks for this little tour! My grandparents emigrated to Argentina from one of those Andalusian white villages, but a little further east from where you were. Been thinking about a moto tour with my fiance through there next Spring (oh! honeymoon trip!!)

[@mr.motard4265]

As always another great video!

[@Edwardlewis18]

Wow, stunning video!!! Added another location to my bucket list!

[@manmedel]

Incredible trip through one of the best landscapes in Spain... Cuenca is also brutal!!!... to go on a motorcycle Take care Medel

[@orangelion03]

In part due to this video, my fiancé and I booked with Hispania for the Malaga Tour Center package next spring. As I stated below, my paternal grandparents both came from a village in the Sierra Madre and we are looking forward to exploring my roots. One week on motos and another week in a car making our way to Madrid, staying in paradores. Thanks Jaime!

[@southend26]

That's a dream trip right there. Well done.

[@LarsErikHel]

Darn it Jamie! I'd just started to lose the idea of buying an 800GS next year. I think this vid might've just pushed me right over the edge here... Excelent as always!

[@mickeypopa]

Jamie stuffing his face with pudding?? That's a new one! haha Absolutely awesome video, beautiful country and it felt like I was there with you. Cheers! :)

[@hoagiesherlin7732]

Wow thats an awesome place

[@blathermouth]

Another excellent video! Andalusia looks like a fantastic place to ride. I met a group touring Morocco with Hispania Tours while I was there last October. They were staying at the same hotel, and I chatted with the guide. Sadly I was travelling by bus :(

[@TriaZT]

Nice view Great bike Safety gear Awesome man Gorgeous video 👍 I need to go there...

[@marispilacis]

Thanks. Fantastic video. Just in time before my trip to Malaga

[@MrKromy67]

Can't wait to ride it!

[@gregk.1831]

Amazing indeed!

[@luismigueldominguezmartin8302]

me encantan tus videos muy buena edicion de video haber si vienes por mi tierra extremadura quedaras sorprendido te lo aseguro

[@nickegan3988]

"The rain in Spain...". Seriously, bummer about the weather.

[@tom_adv]

Great video

[@seanfrank4158]

Insanely jealous. Travel to spectacular places. Eat wonderful food. And still keeps skinny? Awesome.

[@Chriswilliams-lx9mx]

Great video as usual Jamie,they say the rain in Spain stays mainly on the plain,not this time unfortunately all the best from a dry for now n wales🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@fredericoseco1221]

Amazing

[@rumo201]

Wow, fantastic vid

[@lincerider3423]

Qué EQUIPAZO!!! Acabo de conoceros y me ha parecido un trabajo genial. Tengo la suerte de vivir en esta maravillosa tierra de contrastes y pienso conocer todos y cada uno de sus rincones a lomos de mi montura. Gracias por inspirarnos!!! ✌️😎

[@BenalRida]

Been on the same roads as you ... but with my scooter :))) Thanks for the video!

[@oscarjuliangutierrez8071]

Second!! nice places, god job Motogeo!

[@ironfistarrival]

Fantastically Beautiful Natural Scenery , all Europe is Beautiful though .

[@user-ne9of6ew5r]

Nice trip

[@alberto2ymedio]

Andalusia, muy bonita!

[@irishrover63]

Looks like you visited in the middle of winter. Never seen Ronda or Grazalema so deserted, they are normally packed with tourists. Wrong pronunciation of Grazalema. I've ridden most of those roads and they are amazing in good weather.

[@luisfernandes1398]

More a fantastic adventure, your videos are top! Once again you were near Portugal, you have to come here to visit, certainly you will not regret it !! Good curves ...

[@MrSonekks]

See you soon Stewart 🤩

[@deanchild9848]

What an amazing route Jamie this is going on my list of routes to ride also how was the BMW F800GS? Thank you for sharing

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Nice vid as ever Jamie - looks like you were a bit unlucky with the weather? I went in mid January this year and it was 20+ degrees and blue skies all the way!! (I got lucky!)

[@RidersInBlack]

TheMissendenFlyer Nice to see you viewing other channels. Respect for you and I watch your videos as well. You are first rate. You were one of the reasons why I picked up my new Honda CB 500X two weeks ago :) cheers

[@FanOWater]

"After a somewhat weird lunch" Ha Ha You just can't be travelling!

[@jreis22]

Jamie so close to Portugal, you have to try and visit Porto city and its beautiful Douro river. Eat a francesinha and enjoy the scenary. Cheers mate!

[@MiguelOliveiraPF]

Jorge Reis tudo dito 😉 Fazer um roteiro do Porto até ao Douro vinhateiro iria ser espetacular 👍

[@user-sw2lv3zp6o]

I second that comment about Portugal. I live in the southwest. It's a great biking country BUT in Spain, you can travel for miles without seeing another car if you pick your roads carefully. It's a truly great biking country.

[@shawncheng404]

beautiful travel！

[@MiguelOliveiraPF]

Jamie, I advise you to visit the Porto in Portugal !! The wine slopes of the Douro region are among the most beautiful places in the world .. Great rides

[@ignacioperez4702]

Next time, came in summer😜

[@RodandoenMoto]

when you like to know the north of spain, tell me. (my english is very bad) nice video... V's

[@dukeyugo]

Jamie, how did you like the tires? I read elsewhere that Scorpio Trail 2 are one of the best in wet and do provide light trail riding too. Please, what is your experience?

[@netproman]

OLE ahí mi tierra y el Chorro, saludos

[@mcgarrett91]

Another great video! What did you use for the map (route progress) animation?

[@IanTed]

Stunning biking area in good weather...must go back😎

[@kabirariderite3128]

As always.. Karismatic....

[@mrbest1335]

Ilovemotogeo 🇵🇭

Manzaralar harika

[@balujun1]

Hi, great video. BTW what software did you use to show that map track? Viewer from China 🇨🇳

[@RossisuchtdasGlueck]

Great Video, awesome region, Want to go there directly now! :-) How many kilometers/miles was that tour?

[@nikolasrasmussen1283]

My girlfriend and I are planing a raid from Spain to Hong Kong (both on the same bike) can you recommend the African twin or should I go for a bigger bike like BMW R 1250 GS

[@stefanlee2152]

I am so amused to see Andalusia in Spain. What a wonderful place! Especially on a motorbike! In fact I have watched this video clip so many times And I can't help writing something About this because I like f800gs Adventure. But I am under 6feet tall So I want to buy a f800gs normal not adventure. And I am very thankful to The rider - I forget his name sorry.

[@squidgyquijabo2422]

Love the videos, by the way it's pronounced, "Gra-sa-leh-ma"

[@MattUK36]

Actually Grah-tha-leh-mah* ;)

[@SuperdukerMalaga]

bienvenido a mi tierra 😜😜aqui se come también de lujo

[@noicadive]

Para quando uma aventura em Portugal?

[@patrickcooper9641]

I cannot believe that some people give that video some thumbs down! They must be wanta be Harley tough guys that never go anywhere or maybe can't go anywhere cause the Feds won't give them a passport!

[@TheMezzy712]

Love the nicotine fingers on the baker. Ah Spain.

[@Boxer1250RT]

When are you going to ride the mother of all "R 1200 BMW GS Adventure" ;)

[@naviayork__4404]

AndaluCia, C not S. Good video. Thanks

[@ChikoCordero]

Hi James? Do you have any vacant jobs? I could be the "do everything" guy. Lol!

[@ramonreyes1135]

Andalucía*

[@andalusianrider9467]

En inglés es Andalusia. Es como si un americano te dijera que no se dice Estados Unidos, que digas United States. Un saludo!

[@EstebanAGaido]

It´s Andalucía man ;)

[@MrPaulo1400]

Wonderful trip. By the way, does anyone know the reason of the color white of the villages?

[@plazaa10]

they are tipically in the south of spain and also in the mediterranean coast, because of the high temperatures in summer, white is colder than darker colors 👍

[@MrPaulo1400]

All right, thank you

[@mnnic4292]

Also, the houses were, and still ofen are, painted with limestone diluted in water. Great natural disinfectant. Cheers!

[@ownyourworld]

What is the 800 gs like compared to the 1200 ?

[@josech]

They are different souls, 1200 is a confortable all terrain cruiser, 800 has little manners, no hydraulic clutch, gears are shifted at higher revs, higher ground clearance and narrower center. Front is 21", it also makes a difference on road and off road. For me, the 1200 is the equivalent of a Land Cruiser while the 800 is a Hilux (Tacoma if you are from US).

[@leroyjones769]

Jose C. ...Good analogy

[@richardgraham65]

Interesting video. What camera are you using for this? I just want to make a note to myself to avoid it like the plague! I have never seen one with such terrible rolling shutter as this. Check out the section where there is the breakfast hamper - The door frames look like they are made from rubber, absolutely terrible camera. Shame really as the colours and the imagery from it is fine, it puts together some nice looking video, but it is all ruined by that horrendous shutter effect. Good videos though, go buy a better camera and keep on making these videos, Thanks.

[@monchingofficial6798]

Next adventure philipines....

[@federicohuertad3484]

No entiendo por qué un vídeo donde hablan en inglés , le ponen subtítulos en inglés

[@exothermal.sprocket]

That new 850 engine BMW developed should sound so much more characterful. The flatness of a 360° twin can't be any more bland in twins.

[@rubenlopezdiaz4579]

Andalucia

[@samuelescribano1174]

Is Andalucía
