Depending on which bike you're riding you could do lots of off-road riding in AL. But you mentioned that you're travelling with your wife, probably pillion? Then of course the back-roads in the eastern mountain region are not recommendable. That is just lovely for enduros or crossers ;o)
After crossing into AL at Sagiada stop at the historical site of Butrint, just a few kms north of the border. On the esplanade in Sarande a nice address is Hotel Kaonia. Along the beach front here are lots of nice restaurants.
Berat is certainly an interesting place to visit with its old town centre and the fortress. Shkoder is not very interesting, but has a lively night scene. From here you could ride out to Kukes in he east. A very scenic road.
When leaving AL for MNR I'd suggest to exit AL along the road going along the western side of the big lake, on he SH-41 and stick as close to the lake as possible. he landscape is stunning!
Enjoy!
