I am enjoying french highways so much that I forget to refuel. It is often 70km between gas-stations and I get really sweaty when I discover that I am almost empty for fuel. I meet a wonderful biker couple on their way to Corsica. But as usual in Germany and France the language barrier is challenging. 🙂
One late evening, a crazy thought came to me. “What if I go to Spain tomorrow morning?” Next morning I woke up early and packed my bike with tent and food for 3 days in 30 minutes. Next thing I knew, I was on my way crossing the european continent driving from Oslo Norway to Costa Blanca Spain. Acting on impuls, as usual I don´t plan much. Passport, money and helmet, and I am on my way. Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, France and Spain. But will my 2007 Harley Davidson Road King manage a distance of 3460 kilometers? I am travelling alone and if anything goes wrong, few people will notice!

Thanks for the video. I like these kind of rides. Do you get a lot of wind on your head from the windscreen? I am in doubt to buy one for my Road King. Normally I ride without windscreen. 👍🏻👊✌️
