Western and eastern Europe
My partner and I are planning a ride and camping holiday across Europe this year and would like some advice. We hope to go for three months (longer if I get my way).
Although we currently live in Poland, we will be going to the UK in March and staying there until we start our trip in August. We plan to ride through Alsace and Burgundy in France, Switzerland, Austria, southern Hungary, maybe the former Yugoslavia, down to Bulgaria, up through Romania, northern Hungary, Slovenia, southern Poland, southern Germany and Belguim.
Would like any tips for great (biker friendly) campsites and places to see along the way, and of course anything we should watch out for.
Also puzzling which bikes to buy- we both want the same model cos of parts etc. Looked at Honda Hornets, Suzuki Bandits, considering old BMW R80/R100, or ......oh I don't know! Too much to choose from! Any recommendations from the 1000s of bikes about? And while I'm at it, can anyone tell me- are BMW parts (for the older models) extortionately priced in comparison to the Japanese bikes?
Cheers. Tracey
