Route information

We've two main objectives on the ten Country adventure tour:    

•  To take you places which you'd never find / or go alone, covering enough distance on the tour each day to put us in a position which is different from the day before.   To achieve this, we strike a balance between covering enough distance each day whilst keeping the riding enjoyable and achievable for an average adventurer. In doing this, we get to push ourselves maybe just a little beyond our usual comfort zone, in terms of how we ride / where we'd ride. Always with the aim to make each day a new stimulating new experience, where you find yourself riding in a new environment each day, with each evening stop again a new experience where you'll get a taste of local culture.

•  Fantastic motorcycling routes.   The tour is also about traveling, riding and experiencing a real journey of adventure.   The riding is different in each Country we visit. Everyday a new riding experience.   We combine some stunning scenic motorcycling routes with both slower b roads taking us through mystic villages, as well as the odd faster road or autobahn to enable us to progress quickly to the next experience!

To make this possible, we sometimes strike a balance between good riding routes & faster journeys. But, no matter what route we take, each section is a stimulating journey.   In order to find ourselves planted in a strange new land relatively quickly, we do need to make quite good progress across some of the tour sections, but be assured that each day has been well researched and pre run by myself and will be a good balanced route to keep the tour flowing nicely & be an easily ridable distance, usually averaging 240 miles per day. Of course you're welcome (& encouraged) to take your own routes and diversions. We'll all get a little lost at certain points of the tour; all part of the adventure of traveling through a strange part of the world!, but you'll always have our pre planned route / directions / way points and sat nav co ordinates to point you back in the right direction for each key point in the tour.

Route guides include:

•  Where practical, a lunch time suggested meeting point / way point, with ETA & the relevant road reference and GPS
sat nav E. / N. coordinate

•  The start direction and suggested route for each days ride.

•  Name / Address for each evenings accommodation, with sat nav co-ordinate, along with an ETA.

Should things not go to plan - no problem, just keep heading in the right direction & meet up what ever time you decide to arrive at the evening's accommodation yourself.   Other riders will have checked in & you will know that your room is awaiting for you whatever time you arrive . . . . however wet & hungry you are! Motorcycling across Europe is adventurous and we are all aware at times carries certain risks. Accordingly, every rider should have everything necessary to take care of your self and your motorcycle, including full European breakdown assistance, medical insurance with repatriation arrangements in the event of accident or illness. All riders must also be able to take full responsibility for themselves on tour at all times should you need to ride any stages of the tour alone or make arrangements for assistance in the event of breakdown.
