Off to Spain

Early start for our ride out yesterday, on the road at 9am!  There were 9 in total leaving Pyrenees Motorcycle Tours and we headed west to Col de la Pierre Saint Martin where we should have seen some beautiful scenery but were greeted by cloud cover and temperatures down to 7 degrees on top!  Into Spain and still low cloud, but once we reached the bottom of the valley the cloud cleared and we headed into a gorge for our lunch stop.

After lunch we headed south into another gorge where we watched an amazing display of Griffon Vultures over head.  Our route back into France was over Col de Somport.
