Calais to Barcelona & back

Description: Take 4-5 days to ride there and the same to ride back.  Use the time to chill to the bone as scenery takes your breath away.  Find roads without traffic and not a single Gatso or speed trap in over 2,000 miles.  Start the day with croissants and strong coffee - stop for long, tasty lunches French style - finish with fine cheap wine and dinner.  This by the way is how life was meant to be.  

Approximate distance: 2,500 miles
