With its heavenly natural setting and sacred pilgrimage sites, the Pyrenees is a soul-inspiring destination. The gorgeous landscape includes forested mountains, green valleys, dramatic gorges, pristine lakes, and rushing waterfalls, with important towns along the rivers.
You have no idea what a happy person you are! You have driven along such beautiful roads of the world! And You share your impressions with us. Thank you. ❤️
Perhaps, like life, adventure motorcycling is about accepting and learning to appreciate whatever conditions you meet along the way. When riding a motorcycle you only have a relatively short time in every place because one is not carrying a house on our back! Lol! We are, by nature explorers, and so mobile and moving on. And...so is life. We are only here for a short time and we are always moving. Life is always changing and moving around us and we are in control of very little. This is adventure motorcycling and this is life. And it is beautiful! Thank you Lea for sharing you our journey with is. It is beautiful!
"Goodmorning, I'm somehwere in Spain..." ...instant beauty! What a gorgeous backdrop! I lived near there for a few years and I love this part of the world sooooo much. Watching your awesome videos has really made me reassess future life goals...👍👍👍
I did the Transpirenaican Trip from east to west on july 2021. For me, the most beatiful place was Aubisque. Amazing views from there. Your trip and images bring me good memories.
Beautiful video, Lea--thanks for making this! Your problems with fog reminded me of a 10-day trip we took to the Alps in 2010. Nothing but fog and rain ... until we got into the airport at Munich to return at which point the clouds magically disappeared.
Motercycle+Mountain's+lea=Fantastic combination. Love your videos and how you explain everything is so shooting. All the best my dear. In future if you have plans. Kindly visit Indian Himalayas. 😇🙏🙏💚
What a beautiful ride Lea. The fog adds an element of mystery and charm to the ride and we know there's always sunshine behind the fog 😊. Such beautiful little villages, very scenic and full of character. Thanks for the trip and happy riding. Cheers
Thank you for coming along. I am still sad though that I couldn’t show you the full views - but you are literally trying to make the best out of the video still. I will bring some sun next week thiugh!
Lea those places and views are just breathtaking! The beauty of those mountains and plains , and nature is just amazing. You are so lucky that you get to experience it in such a way . Safe travels to you and your companions. ❤️ from NY .
Nice post despite the fog! June about six years ago, being a Tour de France fan, I rode both the Col d'Aubisque and Col du Tourmalet on my then BMW GS700. I allowed one day for each summit so that I could take my time with stops and my favourite ham and cheese baguette snack with a small beer! Great scenery and lucky to have warm sunny days and no accommodation problems as before French school and general holidays. I stayed in Jaca in Spain and Lourdes in France as my starting points.
That sounds like an awesome trip! I was blessed with good weather on my first two Pyrenee rides too - but that’s how it sometimes is! Can’t do anything about the weather.
I was born in Pau and spent the first 6 years of my life in a satellite village of Laruns (Louvie Soubiron). We moved to Australia but went back there about 6 times. Beautiful country! Even better food!
I feel your pain with the fog. Its so tiring riding in it. That said another great production with loads of ideas for future trips. Thank you. Stay safe.
Lea Even though it was very foggy during your trip, it was a fabulous video Lady! I'm looking forward to your next, hopefully less foggy video. Peace Lea!! Ride SAFE and BE safe Lady!! 🙌👏👏👏👏👏👍✌👌🤙👋🙂 Here is your roses Lady!! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Was already waiting for the roses! No Thursday without roses no more (but what if you decide to give me other flowers next week - or maybe no flowers anymore at all?!? 😱 now you have to stick with this as long as I make videos here, otherwise I will get sad)
Great video, what a amazing part of the world. It brings back some fabulous memories when I was crazy enough to cycle up Aubisque twice in the same day . We watched the tour de France the next day
Danke Danke Danke, 1000 Erinnerungen beim angucken. Auf dem Col dAubisque hatte ich den dichtesten Nebel meines Lebens. 3,5 m Sichtweite. Und in Bagneires Luchon das geilste Raclette überhaupt. In Laruns das heftigste Unwetter und mein längster Non Stop Trip heim. 1276 km in einem Rutsch. Ja die Pyrenäen. Unvergessen. Im September nochmal. Da hab ich noch ne Rechnung offen. Danke dass du mir wieder Appetit drauf gemacht hast.
Na da habe ich ja Glück und du konntest in meinem Nebel mehr sehen als in deinem 😂 Auf jeden Fall noch einen Versuch wert! Wenn du dann schon in der Gegend bist ist die nächste episode glaube ich was gutes für dich - aber du kennst das sicher eh schon alles. 😉
you guys are so lucky to have the opportunity and why not the time to travel all around Europe, so beautiful areas again...all the best and stay safe!!
We're never happy with what we have. As a Frenchman, I regard the big region around the US-Canadian border as the nicest place in the world. Québec, Maine, Ontario, Montana, Oregon, B-Colombia...
Loved the video. I personally enjoy riding through fog as long as it's not at night. But it's all part of the adventure. Looking forward to more videos. Safe riding!
You do a outstanding job filming and narrating your videos! I’m really enjoying the Europe tour since I’ll never get a chance to cross the ocean I’ll see it through your lens. Safe Travels!
I enjoy the misty weather, it's quite atmospheric a d dramatic, even though unfortunately you lose the views, but I like to look at the positives and find the silver linings in the clouds 😁
We just love your idea with the title of this series. Destination Home and the beauty of our close surroundings are worth making a lot of such videos … 😀🙏🏻🚀
Nebel kann sehr gefährlich sein. Ich war einmal in Andorra bei dichtem Nebel. Der Blick von oben auf die Wolken war sehr schön. Das wurde später viel weniger. Aber ich habe überlebt. Danke für die Erinnerungen und die schönen Aufnahmen. See you next week.
Lea, fog or no fog? it doesn´t matters. Okay a good view raises up the mood but you are the spark to lightens up my "Fernweh" Thank you for this and a nice WE to both of you🙂
Wow beautiful views and sceneries! Too bad about the weather though blocking most of the views. I love those curvy roads...they are amazing. Just watch out for those cows, hehe. See you next week and ride safe!
Ah, the Pyrenees. My wife and I go there every year, and have done so for the 7 years we have been together. The Catalan people are extremely welcoming, and the roads and views without equal. One of those places you really must go to at least once in your lifetime..
Hi Bib, my wife and I go for the first time in May. She’s nervous to say the least. Primarily she’s concerned about finding accommodation and riding on the right for the first time. You’re a seasoned visitor so, any tips to ease her nerves. Thanks in advance 😊👍
J'ai une bonne mémoire du brouillard. J'avais une professeuse de français qui a utilisé les sons pour mémoriser les mots. Il a fait le son de bateau avec le mot brouillard. Brouilllll-ardddddd.
Such bad luck for the weather but the roads and passes look stunning - for those you could actually see. Pyrenees looks well worth more attention than it gets as it's so close, yet so different to the Alpine passes.
Fog or smoke bad...been on quite a few trips (ID, WA, MT, CA, OR, WY) where i wasn't able to fully appreciate the scenery due to smoke/fires...but still beats staying home or working:)
Great riding and scenery impressions, brilliant idea to include footage from 2019! Loved the French charm of the settlements...and your way to Andorra sounds promising 😍🙋😋! Thanks a lot 😊!
Otherwise you guys probably would have doubted if I traveled the Pyrenees at all - I think on the fog Videos you can’t even tell where it is 😂 See you next week, I will bring sunshine!
