Hey Gerry, good to hear from you!
I'm afraid that "Sunny Spain" is a bit of a misnomer! As it happens I'm posting this under about twenty inches of rain, or so it seems! Seriously, probably no more than an inch or so in the last hour - and at last this means some COOL weather! Local riders are now taking to the trails once again, having left July and August for the proverbial Mad Dogs and Englishmen . . . and the dealers' showrooms are beginning to fill up with tasty looking second hand KTM 250s, so you never know! Meanwhile, I've been celebrating my 53rd birthday with, among other things, a great ride out across some of the sierras here, most notably the Sierra de Montsec - dashing back home as the thunderclouds of a big cyclone overtook me with some torrential rainfall - real meteriological drama that I love! So, how was your trip through the rest of Spain after the HUMM - a certain Nordic Godess of our mutual aquaintance tells me you're a bit of a dark horse with repect to the ladies accompanying you on the road/trail - do tell! Cheers Simon

Hi Simon
Sorry for slow reply , i dont be on here that much. certain news travels fast it seems . The trip got cut short as i had to make a dash to a hospital in london but it was great. I need to get to spain very soon for lots of reasons . Was at the first ever Paddy dakar here in Ireland last weekend. Similar to the HUMM in theory!. See utube link for the start YouTube - Start line Paddy Dakar 2010 There was a color full bunch taking part and being road legal for everyone was not a high priority. i have a link on flickr for the HUMM pictures. my mail address is automationtechnology1@gmail.com All the best Gerry |

Hi Gerry,
Good to hear from you - shame about the truncated trip in Spain - maybe we should team up next year and explore the regions I told you about - see below. I'm going there next weekend - but on a birdwatching trip! Actually I'm more interested in the company and the craik as nine of us are renting a house over the long holiday weeekend, joining forces with foods (and wines of course!) from our diverse homes across Spain. Next spring I'm planning to explore the Sierra de Moncayo region, not so rugged as the Pyrenees but challenging enough methinks, especially as the region is almost completely deserted and virtually unmapped (OK, there are military maps but these are very hard to come by!) so it's a case of follwing one's instince - and the compass of course, if anyobe remembers what they are these days! Thanks too to you kiwi's for the videos of your trails and tribulations, the first section became my Nemesis in a way and it's been good to revisit the experience in virtuality! Cheers to all Simon
