As riding with the Nufenens (real names: Javi & Marta) was such a success and nice time, taking more trips together was a wish we both had.
After talking about rides, memories of the ride in August and planning for the next years, Javi made a proposition to me to come to the Barcelona-Andorra ride in October. This is a ride, organized by a Catalan forum (Motostrail).
We started very early in the morning and after having a wonderful long track arrived way too late at the hotel, just in time to have diner.
Next day we drove over roads into France where my 2 Spanish colleagues Javi and Iru had a customs check of their bike papers and luggage. Something like 1,5 hours later, entering Spain again, they had the same problem. When they asked why customs let me go, they answered that I was driving an Andorra license plate (rented BMW GS 650 Dakar) 
.
Besides the rain that day, the asphalt route was, especially the first part until we were near Barcelona, excellent!
