Forum International Trip

Where we going in 2020? Might not be riding by then

 

Koblenz south On route 9 following Rhine, very pretty, then onto B48 great road goes on for about 150Km. May be too far south for some, could loop back through Vosges Mountains?

 

Austrian alps! Budget accommodation, like formula 1 if that's what I remember it called

 

Know someone who has been to Germany for the last couple of years for his bike holiday, got fed up with the wet weather and is heading South into France this year in hope of better weather.

 

Formule 1 is right across Europe, here's a link to the French section :

Usually about 35€ for a room that sleeps three peeps.

 

Well of course he is !!!!!

 

I would have thought Limousin is not too far, it's only a days ride.

 

Yeah, why carry a tent?

 

Not recently so can't comment fully. I've avoided Switzerland as it's anti vehicle and rode round it instead. I've done it twice and the scenery is overwhelming. The plus side of a base is riding light everyday.

 

Still having nightmares about France 2010 and the 'WORST FLOODS FOR 200 YEARS' headline -



Where the roads had washed away we had to....er !..... improvise

Didn't put me off France though..... nothing could, love it

 

This bikers hotel in Germany has good reviews.

i can recommend that place, i stayed there last year when i toured the Harz mountains some brilliant roads. i'll keep any eye on this thread as depending on where and when you decide i might be able to tie it in with a Moto GP round

 

France then south to faro would be good.The police in Germany can be a nightmare.

 

Happy to do France, as in Brittany. Also Happy to go further afield, not restricted by number of days away. Has any body ridden Route Napolean from Grenoble to Nice,
Absolutely brilliant but an awful long way. Germany equally good, quite a few options on routes & accom ( do not really want to camp but will go along with the concensus of opinion), would suggest 5 days, accom budget of say €250. (Not per night by the way)
