Though I'd share a few wee pics of a biking jolly I''ve just returned from.

As you do, in the pub and there's talk of a bike tour around northern France and to everyone's surprise it actually happened. So a GSXr1000, Blackbird, VFR800, ZX6r, R6 and an SV650s armed with passports made it happen. Here's a few wee images:-

Day one not far from Calais, a bit damp!

Arrived home for a beer!


We had so much fun and after about 1200 miles of high speed straights and mountain pass twisties, we all came back better riders. Thinking of doing Scotland next year, maybe Germany also! I'll keep you's posted if there's anyone who wants to join us :)

Germany is a lovely country to ride through, I highly recommend it!
The road quality in East Germany isn't great, but there's some amazing views to be had.

Yeah, looking forward to next year and hope both Scotland and Germany do take place. I'll make you's aware just in case anyone wishes to join us.

Ed:- Yep the big man above build me like a Racing Snake. I really should have a beer belly, though some how have avoided one! :drink:

Nobbylad:- Well spotted and probably very true!! :)
