  • Riding over 2,500 miles (4,000 km) in our second European motorbike roadtrip from London to the Alps, Italian Lakes and the French Riviera. Swimming in cold alpine rivers in Austria, the warm lakes of Como and Garda to the turquoise waters of the Gorge du Verdon.
    In just two weeks we managed to enjoy each location more by taking the Austrian Railways Motorail from Dusseldorf to Vienna and the SNCF Autotrain from Provence to Paris to cut out the hardest miles from the journey and spend our time in the Alps motorcycling. We rode through France, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Slovenia and Italy during our grand tour and had time to consume Europe's cuisine, beers and wines.
    Casting for this European motorcycle tour was slightly changed this year with Rocko on a KTM 1190 Adventure allow us to carry tens of liters of beer for our night train from Germany to Austria. Patard was back on his Yamaha MT-09 and I was on the KTM 990 Superduke R.
    Some of the best motorcycle roads in the world are in the Alps. Starting in Slovenia there's the spectacular Mangart Pass wish sheer drops. The jaged mountain tops of the Falzarego Pass near Cortina d'Amprezzo in the Dolomites. And the endless twisty roads of France's Route de Grande Alpes. It simply a paradise if touring Europe on a motorcycle.
    Filmed on a GoPro Hero 3 Black Edition and Panasonic Lumix G6.

    Long time no see, hope all is well with you. Didn't manage to do anything this year, last year was epic, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Austria, Czech, Poland Did all the twisties. Not sure where to next year. And I bought a new baby, S1000R, sometimes you have to say WTF. Keep well and ride safe.

      @Finnoctane  Před rokem

      Sorry didn't see this...and thanks for your kind words! You've probably already bought packs but I used Kriega. Bit of a faff but they look nice on the bike and I've not seen any hard system that can be fixed to the SDR!

    • @Finnoctane
      @Finnoctane  Před 6 lety +1

      Cheers buddy! I've been in June, July, August and September over the past few years. We've had similar experiences, sometimes it can be a total washout and you've just got to avoid the weather. September in the Swiss Alps was by far the best, little cooler but dry and sunny but you need to play it by ear and book at the last minute.
      The Daytona wasn't able to get it together in time to join us lol

      Sorry, didn't keep a track on a GPS. But check out a book called Grosser Alpenstrassen by Harald Denzel. It's basically a complete list of every road worth knowing in the Alps!
