While many motorcyclists see South America as the mecca of legendary motorcycling, Jeff Buchanan has gone right back to Spanish roots, and retraced the steps of mythical literary figure Don Quixote, by motorcycle.
Travelling through the La Mancha region to the south and east of Madrid, they tour the region brought to life by Cervantes’ fictional hero, and in so doing indulge in literary history in stunning landscapes.

While it may be difficult to pay homage to the significance of this literary work, giving birth to what we know as the novel, Buchanan completes a motorcycle itinerary in Spain, reliving episodes from the book.

He says:If ever there was a literary personage that possesses the wanderlust so prevalent in the consciousness of motorcyclists, it is Quixote.
The self-proclaimed knight-errant, accompanied by a devoted squire, Sancho Panza, on his donkey, just two misfits searching for purpose and adventure in an indifferent world.
