The Alps - The Relaxing Way

Here's my list print-out if anyone wants to compare
Blah blah blah..

Forgot to add another essential for camping but can be picked up on the day.

Nothing worse than getting up in the night & walking across a dark field...

Pee Bottle.

Hi guys - only just read this thread today and almost unbelievably it matches our initial travel plans identically. We (Steve & Anna) are travelling on eurotunnel on 25th July (11.20) and intend to camp somewhere not far from Nancy the first night before heading thru Germany and Austria to the Stelvio. From there we do not have any concrete plans apart from returning (probably via Geneva) to Calais on 3rd August. Would be interesting to know where you are camping in Nancy as we will be there same night.

Hope you guys have a goodtime. me and a mate are leaving sunday evening to travel to harwich to the hook and then on upto andermatt to ride some of the passes,we did the stevio and a few others last year and had a great time it would have been nice to meet for a beer but we will be back before you leave.ps any camp site info would be usefull for that area as we have been told the one in andermatt is very basic and bleak if weather is bad

.....any camp site info would be usefull for that area

Greg, all the info will be in the post-ride report.

The 3 Amigos have organised a pre-trip get-together in The Peak District mid July if anyone's interested in coming along. This will be a opportunity to get to meet your 'wing-man' & sort out any questions you have & it's a good opportunity to load the bike up, get out camping & have a few scoops.

Stu has secured 3 camping spaces in Monyash

Took The Snake Pass home today, couldn't see my hand in front of my face!

Good meeting up with you guys,
