Over the years I have ridden all sorts of different bikes that I have owned or borrowed from friends. Mainly sports bikes in the early years with occasional commuters and some naked's but never a tourer/adventure bike. That was until a few years ago at the NEC in Birmingham UK when I test rode a KTM 1190 and then again in 2018 when I tried the KTM 1290 Adventure S.
Camping Florida is located 200m from the beach and about 2km from the town of Benicasim.
Mid August 2014, I decided that since there was a national fiesta immediately before a weekend a touring trip was in order. Not much planning would be done as I only decided to go three days before. After about 10 minutes on Google Maps the decision was made to head north east up the Costa Blanca coastline towards Benicàssim before turning inland and stopping somewhere near Albocàsser for the night. Where would I stay? Maybe a nice hotel, or dig out the old tent and give camping a go, what could possibly go wrong.

Nothing special but a nice ride missing the motorways. Stayed at an Ibis Hotel within walking distance of the cathedral, got a taxi to Las Ramblas. Spent a couple of hour's wandering along Las Ramblas watching the street entertainer's had a bite to eat and back to the hotel for a good nights sleep.
