The final ride to Bilbao

This is the last ride before the ferry home. The weather goes a bit mental with really high winds for the ride. I have to dodge branches on the road, firemen are securing broken roofs and I pass a tree blocking a side road.

The bike automatically canters against wind with some physics that I don´t understand. All I know is that a massive blast comes from the side and my bike feels as if the wheels slide sidways and I am leaning into it. It is ridiculous and I pass a couple of other motorcycles doing the same thing, wobbling all over the road.

As I make it to the hotel next to the ferry port, the bike rolls over on the trip meter again. 4000 miles on the trip so far. O for awesome.
