Was really looking forward to watching this, and am usually a great fan of the show, until it opened with the symbolism of such a horrific bloodsport. Absolutely gutted that this channel would treat it as an art form.
we'll be starting some road riding tours later this year. If anyone is interested you can get in touch .. You too Matt, I'll show you some incredible roads and views near Malaga
Unfortunately you're going to make this place a desired destination for bikers. I've been visiting this area for 20 years but now the secret will be out with all the negatives that brings. C'est la vie. My preference is to leave at first light, ride all morning and spend the afternoon by the pool.
That was a stunning ride and mixed with the other route makes it worth heading to, thanks for showing us, really great roads. Can’t wait for you to ride some 3 star road and any with the golden bucket.
I live close to this area and the roads are truly great. Avoid the weekends and holidays as the cyclists are out in force which holds up the cagers and makes overtaking a bit frustrating.
Great views and dialogue. Spain is one of the best places to ride a bit faster amidst the beautiful mountain scenes.
Spain has an abundance of granite. They crush it to make asphalt and what you are seeing is the sparkle of the crystalyn structures within the granite.
Granite makes one of the best surfaces for gripping tires. But it also wears out tires faster by the same amount of increase in grippiness.
You had a really nice Zen ride. For me, this happens when all the niggles go away and you can stay focused in the moment of exaltation.
Too many bumps, slipperiness, traffic etc will literally bump you out of the zone and the exaltation mood lifts.

This is amazing. Thank you Mat
What a fantastic looking road, and what a fantastic vid. I consider myself well entertained, thanks.
S'what it's all about.
Good riding in Spain innit….
Holiday there, but not yet rode a bike. It's definitely on my bucket list.
Excellent vid again 👌 Thanks

That was a half hour well spent! Loving this kind of video.
Bloody awesome 👌
Just wondering. Are you staying in your campervan?
Does your bike fit to the back?
People who spend all their time on the coast don't know Spain. Inland is stunning.

Shout out to the Cat n Fiddle Massive.
Local or not, I would have given you a run for your money over the peaks on my RG580 Big Bored Gamma. 🤣
Wow what a stunning place to ride! And hike too by the looks of it. Fab video, thanks Matt
This is 30 mins of pure joy! It explains in a nut shell why we do what we do. Great vid Matt, thank you!
