I'm going on a ferry from UK to France then Italy to Greece. Ride through France, and both Italian coastlines. Might even drop in a mate in France, one in Northern Italy and join up with a Greek rider on the way round the Greece leg.


Not for Southern Softies. Probably cheaper ferry than the rip off IOM one.

Besides...what's soft about doing a 4000 mile round trip? The isle of man is just around the corner in comparison

If you're interested in a slightly shorter ferry trip on your own bike you could venture up the GM as well as doing the AR. The ferry we'll be using takes all of 2 minutes. Feeling really adventurous? You could come along to Alans Aftershow Applecross Adventure, we'll be using a ferry for that too and its almost twice as long @ a whole five minutes.

Don't worry, it doesn't tend to stop raining anywhere else in England either.
