Hot on the heels of SE Rider and co, I’m setting off tomorrow on a ten night trip.
For the last three years I’ve gone to Asturias/Picos/Portugal in mid September but I pulled out of this year’s trip some months ago when it was confirmed that this forum’s favourite racist would be in attendance .
So Plan B-head to the Alps and combine my favourite bits from the last five years or so of various trips.So roughly that equates to most of the Route Des Grandes Alpes followed by some of the Route Napoleon and then a blast up and over the Col de Rousset to ride the Combe Laval/Vercors.....then a dash via back roads, and Rider’s Rest to my place in Brittany .
First off will be two nights in Brittany so I can attend this on Saturday :
The steed of choice will be the Sedate Sports Tourer.
Evskij is joining me for three nights in the middle.
Here he is practising :
There may be a few pics as I/we go.There will be very few food pics (sorry Nutty) and there will be no pics of anybody’s dress code (sorry passport-less grammar nazi).
So the usual boring shite.
I might even try get some pics sideways/upside down, as is the fashion.
