THE DOCTOR · Jan 3, 2009

Alright Chuck! :thumb2

I'm out this year Paul, a quick look at your pdf & I already know I'm more of a 'ride a bit, stop & appreciate a bit' type of guy. :mmmm

Anyway, just pm'd you regarding that matter we talked about earlier & left my details.

:thumb2

Paul's organisation is superb, last year he acted as shepard for too many to count (at times) & not a bad word was said at the end of the tour. If you're interested in a slick, well thought out trip get in quick.

Look fwd to the photos. :thumb2

Happy New Year to all the Italia 2008 gang.

A photo that sums up Paul's 2008 effort...

"be prepared to camp"

Camp??? what's that, is it like a Graham Norton or Alan Car kind of competition?? :nenau

Ah yes Camp: (adjective) exaggeratedly or affectedly feminine, especially in a man

:bow

Thanks for the route :clap

Count us in. Look forward to meeting you in person in February.

Toe Down · Jan 7, 2009

Hi Paul, Looks like a great trip, so please count me in.

I'll be in New Zealand in February so I won't be able to join the planning meeting, however I'll follow developments on the interweb. :type

Now where's that Sargeant seat catalogue?

markg0vbr · Jan 10, 2009

count me out please. I will be taking my lad just 12 and will be going for about 15 day so i can take a meandering path :roll

he gets tyred aaaa bless :sleep

Passing Phase · Jan 11, 2009

Hi Paul sounds like a good trip keep me informed about the meet in Feb

Drumacoon Lad. · Jan 13, 2009

Paul, can I also express an interest, at least to be part of the Feb planning session before a final decision. I can offer some knowledge of Mainz, as I travel to it regularly and was living there when I bought my first BM. So I can find the 3 Irish pubs and suggest a few resturaunts, and know where the local dealers are....

Hi
I am OceanGoing, GSer from Split Croatia.
Your plan looks good to me except in one pont and that is leg from Split to Zagreb. As per this map you are planing to go via Banja Luka. I will take liberty to remind you that Banja Luka is in Bosnia and Hercegovina and as much as I know UK insurance do not cover it. Anyhow IMHO that road is to bad to ride in one day on pleasant way.
May I suggest to you to take road via Plitvice waterfalls. Amazing place and "must see" in Croatia.

Nice routes Paul, you've obviously put in some research! One quick question ('scuse the lack of PM): Is this a ride-as-a-group-everywhere kind of trip, or are you happy for people to stop or even deviate slightly as long as everyone gets to the same accommodation at roughly the same time?

Cheers mista,
Mup.

THE DOCTOR · Mar 22, 2009

Mup, last year we split into at least 3 groups (if you can call Tom a group

)
I rode from Rome to Rimini on my own & no-one sent me to Coventry.

That's reassuring as I'm not sure where I'd least like to be on a bike - Rome or Coventry.

Only asking as this would be the biggest deciding factor, I likes to stop and take pictures just about everywhere, and also get very prone to random "wonder where that road goes?" syndrome.

This trip caught my eye as the dates are pretty convenient for me; I'll be in south-east Germany around the 20th July for a family event so it wouldn't take much more to leave a week early and tag along with some nice people, seeing a couple of new countries in the process.

I wonder how Paul's doing for (confirmed) numbers by now ... ?

Mup.
