I know exactly the one you're talking about! Not my finest hour... :bike_rider:

Happy New Year to you to!

Thanks glad to have you with us!

We arrive at the southern end of Sardinia, near the port town of Cagliari. Exhausted. Relaxing in Quartucci, at the very end of Sardinia We've booked a couple of nights at a really nice guest house in the suburb of Quartucci, cheaper than staying right downtown near the ferry. Which means...

The road winds high above the cliffs of the southern shores and we get some breathtaking views over the barrier Here's a video recap of the roads around Corsica & Sardinia. Enjoy!

Moto-freedom I think this epitomizes what we love most about riding motorcycles around the world. Just wandering around with everything you need and own on the back of your bike. No schedule... if you see something interesting, just pull over and take all the time you want to explore without...

Kicking off our boots and soaking up some much-needed sun and warmth Thinking about staying here forever Swimming around all the little pools inside the rocky shoreline. Despite the warm weather, the water is FREEZING COLD!

Good a place to park as any Grabbing our swimsuits and towels and heading towards the inviting, crystal blue waters Neda is scouting around for a place to lay our towels down

Today we are going to try to hug the western coast as much as possible, all the way until the edge of the land curves from south to east Somewhere near the southern shores, we spy this fantastic beach from the road I'm not really sure where we are, we're just exploring all the little roads...

Oristano. Very pretty, but we don't spend much time here. We're feeling a little bit tired. I think we're going to call it a day and stop somewhere around here. Yes, I know. We've only gone about 120 kms today and we're already done. Ride for a couple of hours, rest for a couple of days. This...

I'm a good boy too, Neda. Take a picture of meeeeee! Back on the road to do more mountain twisties The route descends back to the coast as we come up to the next major city on our way south

It's a wonderful ride, the sun is shining on the twisty tarmac below our wheels, great view of the sea to our right, dramatic mountains on our left! The coastal road turns up into the mountains and we stop for a break at a scenic turnout. A friendly stray dog comes bounding up to greet us. He...

Updated from http://www.RideDOT.com/rtw/374.html After our beach visit in Stintino, we ride into the city of Alghero, about an hour away, to settle in for the evening. We found a room available in an apartment online on Booking.com. Although it looked very basic, it was affordable and I...

Looking out into the waters surrounding us, I've realized that a pattern has emerged from the places we've visited over the last 7 months of travel: Koh Samui, Koh Phangun, Koh Lanta, Penang, Singapore, Phuket, Brac, Hvar, Santorini, England, Isle of Skye, Isle of Man, Ireland, Corsica...

Fisherman in front of another defensive tower - Torre della Pelosa Walkway to the beach This couple is dressed appropriately for the weather

Government buildings at the Piazza d'Italia (main city square) Sassari is a lot prettier than the smaller towns we've visited. More tourist dollars pour in here. Then after lunch, we hopped back on the bikes to take a quick 45-minute ride from Sassari to the Stintino peninsula in the north...

Between Osilo and Sassari, the road climbs to give us a great view of the plains and valleys below. That's the windy road we just took! Sassari is the biggest city in the region. We get off the bikes to walk around the old historical centre and to grab a quick bite to eat for lunch More...

How do you pronounce windy? We race down windy roads with huge windmill farms taking advantage of the windy climate. English is funny. How do you pronounce lamb? Like this: "om nom nom" Up ahead, the town of Osilo is perched on the side of a hill. The square medieval tower of the Castello...

The road south-west from Santa Teresa shoots inland and we're treated to the typical curvy mountain roads in the northern region of Gallura, just like the ones in Corsica. The windy road takes us through some small Italian towns. This is the Commune di Nulvi, just outside of Sassari Sa...

We walk to the old town square to score us some fall weather snacks - ice cream! Wile we were walking past the ice cream store, Neda spotted a pale blue-coloured flavour. When she inquired about what that was, the server replied, "Mirto". "Oh, Mirto! We have those plants in Croatia, it's Mirta...
