Did France (Boring and flat, same as Belgium). Into Germany for 2 nights (Nurburg and Baden Baden) Switzerland for the night, Lake "Como, then onto Verona. All epic roads, only motorway we used was the Autobahn to have some fun maxing out the bikes, but 90% a and b roads,. Epic time was had and a right laugh.
We put the bikes on the train from Alessandria to Holland on the way back, saving the cost of 2 nights hotel and 3 days riding back, meaning we could have a whole 10 days away.

That looks fantastic. Such a range of environments and backdrops.
I'm pleased to see that the weather was kind to you as well.

I always get jealous if your fantastic trips. It pisses me off that I'll never get around to it and all my mates are shit. Great pics.

£180. That includes 3 course meal and 4 bed couchette. (Cabin).
It sounds a lot, but saves 3 days riding, 3 days fuel, 2 nights hotel and the food etc, so works out cheaper. Plus, it's a great way to end the trip.

That's a bargain! Plus I've never really enjoyed the riding home slog bit. Shame they don't connect with the channel tunnel.

Re: A few pics from our trip
We just got back from the Pyrenees a few weeks back. Much prefer the Alps to the Pyrenees. Might have something to do with the places we went, I don't know.
That pic of the wine reminded me of when we stayed at Gravedona, which is at the North end of Lake Como, was so chilling. Been there 4 times, 3 times with the lads on our bikes and once last year in wor lassess mx5............ the memories. I wanna go back now!!!
