Real Definition Of A Tramp Stamp

Route to Los Toros

Finally, the time with us and we have a clear December morning, that if with some cold , something normal in this time of year.

In principle we are only 5 motorcycles ( Jose Ramon, Diego, Nando, Roberto and Natalia Paul), but we left with a couple of friends in the Puerto de la Cruz Verde. With a little delay we started toward the road A-6 and then take exit 18 towards El Escorial. Almost reaching El Escorial we realize that we have lost an effective, Paul and Natalia . As no doubt who can reach the port of Green Cross decided to go ahead and find them there.

already in port, we wait for the stragglers and 2 friends missing to come. And together we take a coffee.



After this first stop, we resume the path towards Robledo de Chavela . This stretch to reach the diversion of San Martin of Valdeiglesias is quite nice, although with some traffic, so we did not enjoy it.

Already an S Martin Valdeiglesias stop to visit the Bulls Guisando and us photos of rigor.







From here we continue the march toward Glass Gallows, this section has a curved very good but a little dangerous for being with high humidity in shady areas, which makes us go with some caution.


Already Glass Gallows make a stop to take a drink. Where we discuss the impact of the route and the future plans or travel routes. Juanjuan , Jose friend Ramon and great traveler, tells us his experiences in the different trips. Jose Ramon also puts us abreast of the planning that has to go this summer he and Juanjuan to India riding a Royal Enfield . Also encourage us to go with them, and I think more will join as a Nando Diego.

After the " straws" to return to Madrid by Village Fresno, stretch it curves having great fun and luckily we take without much traffic. The back gets a bit chaotic in the 2 groups are made, and although we've no time to say goodbye and to wish everyone happy holidays back without incident.

Long Term Side Effects Of Magic Shaving Cream

Guisando Route in the Sierra Norte (Montejo Beech Forest).

with threat of rain. We go out?. Well, yes. We met at school, as usual, at 9:30. We are 6 motorcycles and also in this output is Maca (schoolteacher) who brings his camera with the intention of making a good story.

We set en route to the Sierra Norte: The Berrueco, Robledillo de la Jara (where we first stop for coffee) Pity Is closed La Posada (a nice place for lunch) but we are going to The Tavern (also very picturesque and nice). And chat a while back route.





Maca climbs on the bike upside José Ramón and starts throwing some spectacular pictures of the "bikers": lines, curves ... all do very well or better ... pose well?. Entertaining roads, landscape the best in the fall but we must be careful in the wet asphalt in some sections.







Maca continues to report and pilots strive to show their best technique.

Prádena, Montejo de la Sierra , Puerto del Cardoso (with horse crossing the road slowly), The Hiruela .... They are people of this place: The Sierra del Rincón (declared a Biosphere Reserve ) that offers the best of its heritage well preserved nature.







In Montejo, back, stop at the Visitor Center where visitors manage the Beech (not the most southern part of Europe but it the single Community of Madrid). We

refreshments in Montejo (which also There are very good places to stay and eat, ... another day?) and then exchange views on the impact of the route, travel, tires and some other "technical issue" typical "biker", we started around Horcajo and Horcajuelo to exit the highway in Burgos and give some gas to the cuff (within legal limits .... I think) to be on time (as usual ... I think) home for lunch.


It was a good morning, we have respected the animals, rain, curves, radars ... we have done very well in the photos (thanks Maca) and above all hope that you have a good time.

See you at the next

V, ssssss
