Sadly due to injury, my bezas, Ian and his good lady wife Vick have had to pull out of our European adventure.
However, in true Top Gear style, i am still going. I have changed a few dates, timings and locations. But my rough itinerary is as follows.......
Dover Calais ferry. Sat 23 Aug
Ride down the west coast of France, visiting Pegasus bridge.
Play in the Pyrenees and on to Andorra, Then pop into the George de Verdon on the way to Monaco.
Across to Italy and down to Rome. Take a selfie at the Coliseum, Then across to the East coast and up to play in the Alps.
North into the Black Forrest and up through Germany for große Wurst und Pommer.
Turn left an Belgium and back to Calais to the ferry....sat 6 Sept
Sadly it's just me and my trusty steed.
But if you see me, please say hello.
Well if I had known earlier ya plank I would have joined you...
Did the first part of that tour in april, but headed for home up the east side after Verdon.
We will be coming back from St Tropez on the 23rd so will just miss you by a day. Stopping at Thillios on the Sat night.
Whats the mileage ?
Sorry old bean.....
It was just so posed to be us three, but alas it is just me now.
Mileage is about 3700. But that isn't including playing on nice roads a few times..
I am just new to the forum. I have been struggling this year to convince my mates on another trip (or there ability to convince wifes how much of a good idea it is to go).
I joined up to see if there were any trips organised on here. I am looking to do something around the same timings, not sure if you open to explore the idea of tag alonger?
