Spain north to south -which way?
Hi,
After a Pyrenee trip I would like to ride to Malaga and store the bike there. What is your proposal to cross Spain to south. East or west side to go around Madrid and cross the country. As usual I like to see scenic landscapes etc.
Thanks for any advise.

Hi amilk
I did 2 trip in Spain throughout Portugal. My last trip also including Malaga and the easten coastline (I didn't know why I spent 3 nights in Malaga for nothing, I am sure there is nothing interesed me there but I may be in very tired situation. It is funny, till now I am still wondering why I spent 3 nights there)
But since my experience if you prefer scenic landscape then you can heading up North then West further down to Portugal. That is an amazing loop for landscape ofcause you can't compare thing as the border are with France on the Pyrenee.
If you are looking for a motorcycle in Madrid, I strongly recommend Mr. Diego from www.spainmotorcycle.com his English is not very good but he is very friendly, the bikes are well maiternant. I did hire 2 time from his company and always happy. His shop is right at the Chamartin train station and easy to get in from airport by metro.
Cheers
