Day 1 Havana - Viñales
¡¡Buenos días desde Cuba!!
A new tour begins and we are all eager to ride this beautiful island in search of history, sightseeing, good food and of course, some of it's famous Rum!
First stop at the harbor town of Mariel, certainly need something cool to drink as it is steaming hot here!
A quick look from atop the "cafetal" and obviously, a coffee is a must
Neven's passion for American motors goes with his love for Harleys!
Wherever we went, people loved our bikes. People asked respectfuly to take a picture and were always happy to converse about everything and anything
Upon arrival at terrazas de San Juan, the fresh breeze brought by the river was soothing, cooling and inviting to take a swim.

A swim that we happily took and enjoyed!
Day 2 Viñales - Havana
An early start to enjoy the day and a quick visit to the tobacco plantaion, Cueva del Indio and ride back towards Havana for a cool night surprise!

Day 3 Havana - Cienfuegos
Day 4 Cienfuegos - Trinidad
A short ride to the "Toped de Collantes" mountain range for a great meal in the natural reserve with it's well deserved swim!
The beautiful cascades of "El Nicho", I assure you the water was reeeeallly cold!
A stop to cool down not far away from Trinidad while enjoying another beautiful view!
Day 5 Rest Day in Trinidad
Reaching the tour's equator, and being so close to the beach, it seems right to take a day off and go and visit the beautiful town of Viñales!

Day 6 Trinidad - Cayo Santa María
Another beautiful and sunny day begins and our first stop is not far from the hotel but certainly a must. Manaca Iznaga tower and off to Santa Clara to see the Ernesto Ché Guevara mausoleum.

Day 7 Cayo Santa María - Remedios
A late start as it's a short day takes us leisurely back over the 50 Km road of the Cayo, giving us time to take pictures and enjoy the sun's caress on our skins
Caro enjoying the views of the Cayo road, riding with the sea on both sides
After visiting the cigar factory, we had to enjoy some of the produce with a rum!
The wonderful music company with Classie and Guy
Time to check mails and see how everything is going back home!
Day 8 Remedios - Varadero
Kids will be kids, and it is more important to have a goal marked with flip flops, than it is to wear them while playing!!
Strange sight caught our eye while driving down a little road on our way to lunch
A little set back, but nothing that can't be fixed!!
Day 9 Varadero - Havana
Last riding day, but we still have a long day with great things to see!
Look at that water!
This is the view from Big Al's place, yes, we mean Al Capone!
Lobster!! YUM!!
View of Havana from Morro Castle
Any place is good for a quick power nap!
Thank you for sharing your holiday with us! Hope to see you soon!!
Javier and Pablo
