Default Speedy and Lucky go south!

It's that time of year again and I'm getting excited!! Speedy Claire and me are heading off into the wide blue yonder in two weeks (Woo! Hoo!), so planning is in full swing! We will be visiting...

Prague
Budapest
Austria
Switzerland
France

We got Prague and Budapest pretty wired, after Claire's threads on the subject. Any suggestions for must ride roads or must see places for Austria / Switzerland and France north of Dole (intend getting into France from Nyons in Switzerland to ride the N5 again ) We are heading east to west in Austria then north through Switzerland.

Oh and (can't wait!)
