First time in France
This was a trip I was really looking forward to. Only my second euro tour, to a country I've never been to.
After some problems with an r1 we were down to two. Me on the Falco and my mate on a 600rr. As it turned out, we were almost the only ones on "sports" bikes, which to be honest was a surprise. We've meet up in Perth and headed down to the ferry in Hull, went smooth.  We knew the crossing won't be boring   First camping: Lac d'Annency  First glimpse of the Alps  First Col   July!  Talk about a spot to meet a fellow Falcooner  Next Col

Re: First time in France
A quick european shower
 Early morning pics  The camp on he morning we left  And a day earlier, from way up   I've got a new hobby  Mate got a voucher  Heading towards La Bonette, I've enjoyed this one the most.  Made it!   We've climbed to the summit  Bikes are at 2800m above sea, we're a bit higher  Cooling down

Re: First time in France
Somewhere around Cannes, what sign?
 Last camping, Lac de Salagou  This was pretty close to the Millau viaduct, unfortunately it was undergoing maintenance...  Second try...     A days rest  I wasn't doing so good  Stopped in Paris   After that we headed towards Belgium and the ferry. Had quick lunch, boarded and got some rest in the cabin... not
