Europe is just a place to start - SV650.org

ogden · 31-07-13, 10:11 AM

Having done a few trips around western Europe already, I teamed up with a few mates to head a bit further east.

The writeup starts here* if anyone fancies a read. It's long but if it inspires anyone to venture beyond the usual few countries then it'll have done its job.

Hope you enjoy it.

Well done,

Very very jealous, and honestly I think that this is the finest write up of a tour I have ever seen.

Thanks very much for sharing your trip and what a fantastic write up brilliant humour and detail made me feel like i was there, superb.

Although for me having watched a few of the Hostel movies i would have been uber paranoid about some of the stops you made

Cheers xGx

Ha. That's the big lesson though - paranoia gets you nowhere. Hope for the best and that's usually what you get.
