Loose plan for Eastern Europe this summer.
I've put a loose plan on paper for what I thought would be a decent summer bike trip, taking in a few of the places I've fancied visiting for a while. I would be looking to camp mostly, for cost reasons, and to be able to have very little booked, therefore leaving the options pretty much open to change/alter along the way. I would also not want to be doing ridiculous high mileage every day, and also avoiding motorways unless absolutely necessary.
The ( rough ) plan would be as follows. Suggestions welcome for interesting stop offs along the way.
Dover-Calais/Chunnel to Calais. Belgium, ( Ypres )- Germany- Poland ( Warsaw, Auschwitz )- Slovakia - Hungary - Romania ( Alps/Transfagarasen ) - Serbia - Montenegro - Croatia ( Dubrovnik ) - Slovenia - Italy ( Dolomites ) - France ( Monaco ) - Route Napolean OR Italian Alps ( Stelvio ) - Switzerland - Germany ( Black forest/Eiffel/Nurburgring ) - Home OR Normandy Beaches if poss !!
Was thinking of allowing a month, keeping at least one day a week for R&R, if not 2. That would depend on final route decision and mileages.
If anyone wants to, have a look on youtube for Znabb ( I think thats his name ). He did a trip including Serbia/Mont?Croatia on an old Honda CB.
Oh, I'll be riding an Africa Twin, not that it matters. I'm based on outskirts of London if anyones interested in chewing the fat.
Cheers !!
