  3. On the 6am dover to Dunkirk ferry, there was a very tidy Metallic Grey ST4, wonder if the owner is on here ?

  6. Great route you'll enjoy that!
    If you find that Sirimone/Lake Garda is too rammed with tourists, I can recommend 'Borghetto sul Mincio' which is a few minutes ride South of there. Borghetto is a lovely old village surrounded by waterways and has a couple campsites.
    It does get busy on weekends however!
    Best of luck on your travels.

  8. Enjoy your trip . My wife and I are leaving on the 30th with our bikes in the back of a van. Should arrive in Riccione on the 2nd July
     
  9. Neil, from Strasbourg you are only a few miles from Baden Baden where I was a few weeks ago. If you get a chance you must try and do the B500 through the Black Forest. It's a proper must do ride but be very careful, the road can be treacherous.
