Bit of conversational question. I have 2 plans and still don’t know which one I will choose, maybe you will help me decide.

One is to ride to Spain for solar eclipse, that is 12.7. and ride home. So probably through Austria, northern Italy, France and along Mediterranean coast to Spain.

Other is through Poland, Baltic’s towards Finland. I still don’t know what next if it would be possible to go to Sweden and Norway and then cross to Denmark…

I will have about 2 months for that so I will probably use some trains and stuff to shortcut it here and there.

So what are your plans, where would you want to go this year?

    I have a two week trip in France planned - not sure how far I will get but from Calais heading towards Switzerland. I plan to do this mostly off road, so everyday is a single track day. And carry a tent and oatmeal. I have toured in France, Italy (very nice), Germany (closed on Sundays and sometimes Saturday afternoon), Switzerland - stunning, bring a credit card, Thailand (north to south)(saved by 7/11s), Cambodia, a bit of Java. We plan to hire a car and drive to see the eclipse in August. I think it will be too hot.

      I love your description of Switzerland, as I was there last year I can tell it is true (but worth it at least once to get there).

        I read once, when you pack to go on a trip, take half as much clothing as you think you need, and twice as much money.
