Recently embarked on a trip from home (uk) into mainland Europe. Ended up visiting 8 countries in all. On the way out we went into France, Belgium, Austria, Slovenia and Croatia which was the final destination we had decided on.
No real plan, just a few maps and booked accommodation as and when towards the end of the day. I have to say it was my first real trip on the bike abroad and I will be doing again that's for sure it was epic.

Croatia was a fantastic place to visit, nice people awesome views and great roads, I will be going back again ;)

On the way back we headed back into Slovenia, Italy, Switzerland, France and home...here's a few pics which can give you a better idea of the trip than me writing a million words. excuse the quality of the shots as most were taken on the mobi...
Oh yeah and the bikes were not all what you would call your tradional tourer :laugh:

Note to self: I dont need as much luggage as I thought, so will pack lighter next time.

day 1 - the off. met up at Reading Services.

Final Total of the trip.

Only another 500 photo's :whistle: I wont upload them, but you get the idea :laugh:

A few other pics, the first one is along a road which is something like 65 miles and is full of constant bends along side the sea.... fantastic and a great little biker cafe on route.

Nice pics, thanks for those. Did you complain about the bread roll being too small for the sausage? :lol:

Some nice shots in there, liking the coastal shots, think this year could be our year for coastal scenery, hoping to plan a dry (weather not bars) trip in August sick of this wet stuff in Scotland.
